If you prefer bone-in chicken, adjust the cooking time accordingly to ensure it's thoroughly cooked. Garlic: Fresh garlic cloves are highly recommended for maximum flavor. Mince or finely chop the garlic to release its aromatic oils. Seasonings: Apart from garlic, you can add additional seasonings such as salt, black pepper, dried herbs (such as thyme or rosemary), or even a pinch of red pepper flakes for a hint of heat. Adjust the seasonings according to your taste preferences. Cooking Fat: Use a cooking fat with a high smoke point, such as vegetable oil or canola oil, for sautéing the chicken. This will prevent the garlic from burning and give the chicken a nice sear. Sautéing the Chicken: Make sure the pan is hot before adding the chicken. Sear the chicken for a few minutes on each side until it turns golden brown. This will help lock in the juices and enhance the flavor. Deglazing the Pan: After sautéing the chicken, deglaze the pan with a liquid of your choice, such as chicken broth, white wine, or even water. This will help scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan, adding extra flavor to the sauce. Simmering Time: Once the chicken is cooked, let it simmer in the garlic-infused gravy for a few minutes. This allows the flavors to meld together and ensures that the chicken absorbs the delicious garlic flavors. Serving Suggestions: Serve the frugal garlic chicken over cooked rice, pasta, or with a side of steamed vegetables for a complete meal. You can also garnish it with fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro for an extra touch of freshness. Leftovers: This garlic chicken recipe is great for meal prep and leftovers. Store any remaining chicken in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. It can be reheated in the microwave or gently warmed in a skillet with a little extra sauce to keep it moist. Experiment and Customize: Feel free to customize this recipe to your liking. You can add vegetables like bell peppers, onions, or mushrooms for extra texture and flavor. Don't be afraid to get creative and make it your own!
