Meal No. 1163: Chicken with 40 Cloves of Garlic

According to the New York Times, Chicken with 40 Cloves of Garlic is a French fricassee popularized by James Beard and others. It's certainly popular in this household, although I've made it tonight for only the third time, I think:

This is such an incredibly delicious meal and not that complicated to make. There was a good deal of quiet chewing around the crowded dinner table last night, which seemed to be a good sign that folks were happy with what was served up this time around.
