Talk about a jar delivering everything it promises to be. The label compares it to a "40-clove sauce." There are directions on the side of the jar, but I decided to go off-recipe a little bit, and use my crock pot.
I seasoned the chicken pieces with salt, pepper, & garlic powder (see seasoning mix here, I keep it in a lidded cheese shaker), then rubbed on a little flour, and browned them in a pan with some oil. Once I got a nice crust on them, I threw them in a crock pot on high, poured all the sauce over them, and cooked for 2 hours. (by the by, not part of this review, but if you don't already use Slow Cooker Liners
, start doing so now. You can thank me later!) I could probably have pulled the chicken earlier than 2 hours, in retrospect. Especially after the thorough browning I had done.The end result was simply garlic heaven! Even my leftovers tasted amazing when reheated. (Also, I spooned some of the simmer sauce over some stuffing I'd prepped that was a little dry. Yum!)
I plan to start keeping this stuff "in stock" in my pantry. Definitely a future "go-to" item. At $2.99/jar, it's an affordable way to turn the volume up to 11 on your basic chicken dinner.
