    Delicious!!! I didn't use a whole chicken, i only used drumsticks. I also cooked at 375 for a half hour and deglazed the pan with white wine before putting in the oven. So good!

    I also found the chicken was wayyyy overcooked. The flavor was O.K., but I couldn't even gag the breasts down, the were so dry.

    AB what were you thinking? Flavor is excellent but the chicken is over cooked to the point of being nearly inedible--which I was afraid of but wanted to follow the recipe exactly first. Not sure this recipe is salvagable--well cooked chicken & garlic. At least I was able to try out the stupid garlic trick from Youtube. Worked great.

    Wow! How can something so simple taste so good! Added a good splash of white wine to the leftover juices in the pan and boiled it down to half the quantity and poured resulting sauce over chicken and garlic before putting it into the oven.

    This recipe, introduced to us by friends, has become a family tradition. We substitute Rosemary for the Thyme and it is delicious. I highly recommend it. We also slice italian bread and grill the bread with some olive oil we then present the chicken, the bread and the pan juices (fat skimmed off, and the roasted garlic from the pot to spread on the bed. So easy and delicious.

    My boyfriend loved it! My brother recommended it. Definitely adding to the rotation. But don't cook for more than 1 hour at 350.

    This is one of my favorite recipes. I ususally use chicken thighs or leg quarters instead of a whole cut up chicken though, but that's mostly because I prefer dark meat. My mom complains that it's too oily, but what I do is drain the oil off when the chicken is done and use it for other things. The oil ends up infused with chicken/garlic/thyme flavor. It's great for sauteing veggies in. The best part of this recipe might be smooshing the garlic cloves onto crusty French bread.

    Which came first, Ina or Alton. I think Ina and her recipe is much better.
