Hours of cooking mellow the garlic.

  • 12  garlic cloves, peeled
  • 1/2  cup  dry white wine
  • 1  teaspoon  dried thyme
  • 1/2  teaspoon  salt

I agree with the person who referenced the overpowering garlic flavor. It was especially bad when I reheated the leftovers. This was edible and tasted hearty, but I would never make it again.11/24/08

FAVORITE. I use this recipe as a weekly basic. If I use chicken breasts, I add 1 c chicken broth. I serve the broth along with chicken so it doesn't seem dry. Suggested additions that I often use: 2 cloves garlic, Goya Adobo (seasoning salt) instead of salt & pepper, 1/2 onion.05/25/08
