Chock full of garlic, this dish from the Castilian region of Spain is delish!!! Served with a salad and crusty French bread, it is sure to please. Ingredients:
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil |
1 (3 pound) whole chicken, cut into pieces |
1 pound potatoes, peeled and cut into large chunks |
18 cloves garlic, peeled |
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley |
1 1/2 cups dry sherry |
1/2 cup port wine |
Directions:
1. In a large covered skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook chicken in oil until browned on all sides. Remove chicken from skillet.
2. Arrange potatoes in the skillet to cover the bottom. Scatter garlic cloves over potatoes. Place chicken on top of garlic and potatoes. Sprinkle pepper, salt, and parsley over chicken. Pour sherry and port over all. Cover, and simmer over low heat until potatoes and chicken are cooked through, approximately 45 minutes.
