Ingredients

  • 3 tete ail
  • 8 cuisses de poulet, bone in
  • 1/2 tsp poivre
  • 1 Tbsp huile d'olive
  • 2 Tbsp farine
  • 1 cup vin blanc
  • 3/4 cup bouillon de poule
  • 1/4 cup creme-a-fouetter
  • 4 brins thym

Instructions

Separate the cloves and drop them into a pot of boiling water for 2'. Drain, let cool and peel. Season chicken. Heat the oil in a 12" overproof skillet. Brown chicken skin-side down, about 6-8'. Transfer to a plate, skin-side up. Add the garlic with the drippings. Cook 3-6 ', turning often, until evenly browned. Add the flour and cook, stirring for 1'. Whisk in the wine, broth and cream. Return to a boil and scrape the brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Add the thyme and the chicken back to skillet, nestling into the liquid, keeping the skin above the surface. Transfer the skillet to the oven at 350 F. Bake uncovered until the chicken is tendre and cooked through, about 30-35'. Remove the thyme sprigs.
