Melissa Darabians White Chili With Quick Roasted Garlic Food

D'ARABIAN'S ROASTED GARLIC CLOVE CHICKEN THIGHS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Rinse and pat dry the chicken. Salt and pepper liberally and allow to temper on a cutting board while preparing the garlic.
• In a large ovenproof sauté pan over medium heat, cook the whole garlic cloves in olive oil and butter, stirring occasionally, until lightly golden, about 10 minutes.
• Remove the garlic from the pan and set aside until Step 7.
• Increase the heat to medium-high and brown the chicken skin-side down until the skin is golden and crispy, about 5 minutes.
• Turn the chicken over, sprinkle on herbes de Provence.
• Add the garlic back to the pan and place hot pan in oven. Bake chicken until cooked through, about 25 minutes.
• Once the chicken is done, remove chicken thighs and garlic to a platter.
• Place the pan over medium-high heat and sprinkle the drippings with flour and stir to incorporate.
• Deglaze the pan with the stock and lemon juice. Pour the sauce over the chicken on the platter and serve with bread for sauce-mopping and garlic-spreading.
