so, it sounded so good that I am making it tonight

I'm thinking about making extra sauce like you said, and putting it over either rice or mashed potatoes. thoughts on which one might be better? thanks for all of the recipes!

Re: hippy - the garlic chicken recipe
::butting in::
May I have this recipe, please?
from Hippy
Garlic Cream Chicken
3 whole heads garlic (about 40 cloves)
2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Salt & Fresh Ground Pepper
3 TBSP Salted Butter
3 TBSP EVOO
1 1/2 c. white wine
2 TBSP dried thyme
2 TBSP flour
2/3 c. heavy cream
Drop the garlic into a pot of boiling water. Wait for 60 seconds, then drain & peel. Set aside cloves. Season chicken very liberally with salt & pepper. Heat the butter and oil in a large, deep pan over medium high heat. Saute the chicken until nicely browned (about 5 minutes per side). When done, transfer to a plate.
Next add all the garlic cloves to the pan. Lower the heat to medium and saute for 10 minutes, turning often, until evenly browned. Add wine and bring to a boil. Scrape the bottom bits from the bottom of the pan Let alcohol burn off. Return chicken to the pot and sprinkle thyme over the top of each chicken breast. Cover and simmer for 20-30 minutes.
Remove chicken to a platter and cover with foil. In a small bowl, whisk together flower and /2 c. of the sauce and then whisk it back into the rest of the sauce. Raise the heat to medium-high, add cream and boil for about 3 minutes. Pour sauce over chicken and serve.
* When I made it with funmomof3 we used the whole cup of cream that came in the container and even added a little extra half & half that I had because the sauce was so good that we knew we needed more of it to dip our bread into!!! =o)
*When my she re-made it later she added fresh mushrooms and said it was better then you could imagine.
This is as the recipe was given to me. I should add that I forgot to add the thyme when the recipe called for it so I added it when I added the cream and only added 2 tsp. 2 TBSP sounds like an awful lot of thyme to me. JMHO.
