ROASTED GARLIC OIL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• In a small ovenproof deep dish - a pie plate would work - combine all ingredients, and set in oven for about 20 minutes until the garlic is softened and golden and the oil is fragrant. We don't remove the cloves.

CARAMELIZED GARLIC

Steps:

• Blanch garlic cloves in boiling salted water about 2 minutes. Remove and place in a bowl of cold water to stop the cooking. Remove cloves from water and drain on paper towels.
• Place the sugar and butter in a small heavy skillet and add 2 tablespoons of wine. Place the pan over medium heat. Cook until the mixture turns a golden color tipping the pan and swirling the mixture to insure even cooking. Add the water 1 tablespoon at a time, swirling the pan to incorporate the liquid. Add the garlic and cook until well coated and the garlic is soft but still retains its shape about 5 minutes.

• Flip the chicken and brown the other side, about 3 minutes.
