60 Garlic Chicken

I have seen quite a few different 40 garlic chicken recipes but they never seem to feed more than 4 people. So I adapted a recipe from SlenderKitchen to create 60 Garlic Chicken!!!! (Their recipe states 6 servings but only includes two thirds of a chicken breast and dividing them up is not easy so this recipe serves 6 people with 6 chicken breasts. If you are planning on making this recipe I would recommend having a Garlic Peeler or purchasing Peeled Garlic. I did this by hand the first time and it was not fun. The dish was still worth it though. Many of my chicken dishes you can start with frozen chicken in the crock pot this is NOT one of them.

*Note: We make this dish the day before and reheat it in the oven and the flavors are even better!

  4. Pour Chicken Broth around sides of crock pot and add Bay Leaf.
  5. Cover and cook for 8 hours on low or 4 hours on high. (If you have the time low is better.)
  6. If you are making this dish for the current meal serve Chicken with some Broth, Onions, Leeks and Garlic. If you want the garlic can be used on bread as if it was butter but better.
  7. If this is for the next day spoon into a resealable container and refrigerate until you are ready to reheat.
