Fantastic 40-Clove Chicken

I’m currently reviewing another wonderful Gooseberry Patch cookbook called “101 SUPER-EASY Slow-Cooker RECIPES” (affiliate link) and this is one of the recipes that I’ve tried so far. It was very yummy and VERY easy to make.

You just salt and pepper your chicken and place it in your crockpot.

Next you’re going to throw your 40 cloves of garlic in there. Yes, I used exactly 40 cloves of garlic. I’m a little OCD when it comes to stuff like that. If it says 40 by golly I’m putting in 40. My son even asked if I used 40 cloves so I think he may have a little bit of that too. *smile*. Oh and to save time I purchased already peeled garlic at the store. Highly recommend you doing that.

Next you add your seasonings and the broth and let it cook for 4 to 6 hours.

This is what it looks like when it’s done. You will remove the chicken and make a sauce out what’s left behind. Yum!

Everyone in the family liked this dish.

Here’s the full recipe for ya.
