Oh my GOODNESS... my family are such garlic fiends, the toast was fantastic! The chicken was just right, and I added rosemary to the mix as well. I put a few tender sprigs in the oil- my family wound up eating them, too... they fried up nicely and were crispy and GOOD. We love Good Eats!

Very good and simple. I used an organic chicken and the worst part was cutting up a raw chicken. The cloves took a while to peel too but the final result was definitely worth the work.

My wife and I love this recipe. For someone who had never cooked chicken before, and had heard all of the horror stories, this recipe was great. The finished product makes an excellent dinner, and it's really easy to make.

This is one of the easiest most delicious meals I've ever prepared. I used boneless chicken thighs and it was incredible. It takes no time to prepare and the 1.5 hour cook time leaves plenty of time to get all the sides together.

This recipe was very good. I only used thigh meat since it's my favorite so it came out very juicy and tasty. If you love garlic put in some extra garlic just to munch on after all the chicken is gone.

This was very good and easy to prepare. Did not have a strong garlic taste at all. Chicken was very tender. Not sure my baking pan was the right choice. Next time I will use a smaller but deeper pan so the olive oil almost covers the chicken.

I would definitely recommend adding some fresh rosemary to the pot, to give a little more breadth of flavours to the dish. Also, substituting chicken stock for 1/2 the olive oil might make it a bit less oily.
The BEST part was slicing up some crusty bread, drizzling the olive oil on top, broiling/toasting it, then spreading a clove of cooked garlic on the top. We LOVED that part.

Make some mashed potatoes, and toast some sliced italian bread, and spread some of the roasted cloves that this dish yields in the potatoes and on the bread. Unreal

To quote Wayne and Garth "we're not worthy!!" We live on a military budget and chicken is so inexpensive that we have it at least 3 times a week, my husband doesn't care for chicken and will only eat it BBQed or buffaloed, I made this last night and he ate every single bite! The garlic is so mild and creamy on crusty bread, I swear it was so good it made my toes curl! Keep up the good work Alton and keep bringing us fantastic recipes like this!
