Rustic Garlic Gravy Chicken

After making Penne with Garlic Gravy the other day I thought wouldn't that gravy be good with chicken.  I was right!

It's basically the same sauce with just a couple of adaptations.

Ingredients:

4 chicken legs, split
2 cups chicken or turkey broth
1 tbsp lemon juice
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup olive oil
10 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup flour
2 tsps thyme
salt and pepper

Heat 1-2 tbsps of olive oil in a large skillet. Salt and pepper the chicken then brown on all sides, cooking for 8-10 minutes.

Remove chicken to a 9 X 13" baking dish.

In the same skillet and with the remaining fat, add all the garlic. Cook just to soften, about 1 minute, then add the broth, lemon juice, butter and olive oil. Whisk in the flour and cook until slightly thicken, again about 1 minute. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Pour the sauce over the chicken and sprinkle with thyme.

Place in a 400 F oven for 30 minutes. Spoon some sauce over the chicken halfway through the cooking time.

Enough garlic to keep the vampires away! But everyone else will come back for more!
