- Ingredients
- 1 fresh chicken (1.5- 1.7 kg or about 3 1/2 pounds)
- salt
- freshly ground peppers
- 3 Tbsps clarified butter
- 30 large garlic cloves (no joke, really 30-40)
- 1 sprig Tarragon
- 125 milliliters dry white wine
- 2 Tbsps Salt water (for brushing)
Preparation
1.
Rinse the chicken and pat dry, rub inside and out with salt and pepper.
2.
Heat the clarified butter in a roasting pan and fry the chicken on all sides until golden brown. Add the unpeeled garlic cloves and tarragon to the pan, cover and bake on the lowest rack of a preheated oven at 160°C (approximately 325°F) for 15 minutes. Drizzle with wine and cook for another 45 minutes. During the last 15 minutes, remove the lid and raise the temperature to 220°C (approximately 425°F) and brush the skin with salt water, so that it becomes crispy.
3.
To serve, arrange the chicken and garlic on a serving dish, drizzle with the pan juices and carve at the table.
4.
Squeeze out the soft flesh of the garlic cloves and spread on toasted french bread.
