Category: Chicken
    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  


4 chicken leg quarters (about 3 lbs)
2 tsp dried basil
2 tsp dried thyme
2 tsp dried rosemary, crushed
2 tsp olive oil
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
4 whole garlic heads

Preheat oven to 375. Rinse chicken with cold water; pat dry. Trim excess fat. Loosen skin from thigh and leg by inserting fingers, gently pushing between skin and meat. Combine basil and next 5 ingredients (basil through pepper). Rub herb mixture under loosened skin. Place chicken on a broiler pan. Insert meat thermometer into meaty part of thigh, making sure not to touch bone.

Remove white papery skin from garlic heads (do not peel or separate the cloves). Wrap each head separately in foil; place on broiler pan with chicken. Bake for 45 minutes. Increase oven temperature to 450 (do not remove chicken from oven).

Bake 30 minutes or until thermometer registers 180. Cover chicken loosely with foil; let stand 10 minutes. Discard skin. Serve the roasted heads of garlic on the side. Squeeze out the pulp and use it as a spread on baguette slices or as a condiment for the chicken. Served with some couscous and green veggies. Serves 4
