Delicious Greek Garlic Chicken

Features:
    Cuisine:

    Make this only if you are a garlic-lover, don't worry the garlic will mellow while baking, you could reduce the garlic slightly I like to use three large heads --- the one hour baking time may need to be increased slightly as you are opening your oven door to basting the chicken every 10-15, this will allow hot air to escape --- plan ahead the chicken needs to be refrigerated for 1 hour, but no more than that as the lemon will start to cook the chicken --- you may also add in a sliced onion.

    Delicious Greek Garlic Chicken, Make this only if you are a garlic-lover, don’t worry the garlic will mellow while baking, you could reduce the garlic slightly I like to use three large heads — the one hour baking time may need to be increased slightly as you are opening your oven door to basting the chicken every 10-15, this will allow hot air to escape — plan ahead the chicken needs to be refrigerated for 1 hour, but no more than that as the lemon will start to cook the chicken — you may also add in a sliced onion , The lemon was a little strong for me but the garlic was perfect! I followed the instructions to step 7 and then took the pan drippings and reduced them to a thicker sauce to serve atop Another great recipe!
