    Delicious -- better than what I usually get in a restaurant with similar chicken dishes. I followed the recipe with two exceptions. Ina cookes hers on low heat on top of the stove and I chose to cook mine in the oven at 350 defrees for about 90 minutes. My husband likes a lot of sauce with his meat, so after I took the chicken and garlic out of the pan and put it on a plate to keep warm, I made Ina's gravy recipe following her instructions, but then extended the amount of sauce by adding more white wine and about a half of a can of low sodium chicken broth in small incriments, reducing over heat along the way. The result was delicious and the amount of sauce was perfect. I served mine with lemon parmesan orzo and steemed broccoli -- everyone seemed to love it.

    My original comment did not post. Ill try again. I like most of Ina's recipes but usually cut back on the recommended salt, butter, and cream. I don't think an abundance of salt and fat "adds flavor". Food has its own delicious natural flavors. I did try this one as written. After browning I drained more than 1/3 cup chicken fat out of the pan yet Ina' s recipe does not call for draining this unecesarry fat. I followed the rest of the recipe and found a nearly one inch layer of fat in the sauce. This sauce was too salty and fatty to enjoy the natural flavors of the garlic and chicken, for us anyway. This was just too unhealthy a dish to serve my family and we did not care for the taste. We enjoy salt and a healthy amount of fat in recipes. This was just way too much for us.

    My husband is a garlic fanatic and really liked this. I just love Ina. Her recipes always turn out great.

    "Spectacular" ! Made this for the whole family including two teens and everyone raved! I used bone-in thighs and breasts and it came out great. We made mashed potatoes with it and the sauce was incredible to pour on top! I thought the recipe needed more salt, I was not generous enough. This will now be one of our staple dinners!

    This dish was so flavorful, I really loved it. I made it with chicken thighs and it was perfect. I used about 6 thighs instead of 2 whole chickens and it was enough for my husband and I with lots of sauce and extra left overs. Will be making this again.

    Sooo good! I've always had my eyes on this recipe and finally made it tonight. Why the h3ll did I wait so long! Oh yeah, use kosher salt not table salt. Taste your gravy and make any adjustments before serving like adding a bit of water if its too salty.

    By far, one of the BEST chicken dishes I have ever had!!!!!! Absolutely delicious, don't hesitate on making this one. It will always be on rotation in my house, wow!!!!!! Note: I did not buy whole heads of garlic, I just bought a jar of the peeled garlic cloves, so easy!

    AMAZING. so much flavor and everyone I made this dish for loved it. I cut up a baguette drizzled olive oil on it and toasted them over the stove to make croutons. I then served my chicken on top of the croutons and let people eat them with the sauce. It was divine. The only thing I HIGHLY RECOMMEND that one changes is that they buy the chicken already cut up. It is a hassle and very time consuming but if you are willing to do it then go for it!
