Garlicky and good. Peas and potatoes included. Coat chicken lightly with
flour. Brown in butter and oil at medium high heat. Lower heat, add head
of garlic and saute until aromatic. Pour off fat except 2 tablespoons and
add 1/2 cup each of water and wine. Simmer over low heat 1-1/2 hours,
adding water and wine as needed. About 15 minutes before serving, heat 1/2
cup of oil in skillet and pan fry potatoes and additional garlic. When
nearly done add peas and heat through. Remove vegetables with slotted
spoon. Add to chicken just before serving and heat briefly to blend
flavors. There should be enough sauce, of a glaze-like consistency, to
coat the chicken and vegetables lightly.
