What is 40 clove garlic chicken?

40 clove garlic chicken is a French stew consisting of pan-seared chicken thighs cooked in white wine and chicken broth with 40 cloves of garlic.

Do I really have to use 40 cloves of garlic to make 40 clove garlic chicken?

No! While it is traditional to use 40 cloves, you don’t need to count them out individually. Just use about 3 whole heads of garlic.

What is the easiest way to peel 40 cloves of garlic?

The easiest way to peel a lot of garlic quickly is to separate out the cloves, place them in a Tupperware with a lid, and shake vigorously until the skins come off.

Can I make 40 clove garlic chicken in an instant pot?

Yes! Brown the chicken according to the recipe, using the instant pot’s sauté mode rather than pan-searing in a skillet. Remove the chicken to a plate, sauté the garlic and herbs for a few minutes, then add the chicken back along with the wine and broth. Seal the instant pot and set to manual to cook for 15 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes, then release the pressure.

What is a “dry” white wine?

A dry white wine is any white wine that is not sweet. I like Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Riesling, or Pinot Grigio. You can also use white cooking wine, which can be found in the oil and vinegar aisle of the grocery store.

Serving Suggestions

This crockpot garlic chicken tastes delicious with any of your favorite sides. Potatoes and veggies make a great addition because they can soak up the garlic-y broth from the chicken.
