Ingredients

3 pounds frying chicken cut up
Salt to taste
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 Tbsp. oil
1/4 C. dry white wine
1/8 C. dry vermouth
2 Tbsp. parsley
2 tsp. dried basil
1 tsp. dried oregano
1 pinch red pepper flakes
40 garlic cloves peeled
4 celery ribs cut 1/2 inch slices
Juice and peel of 1 lemon

Cooking Instructions

Salt and pepper chicken and brown in oil about 10 minutes. Combine wine, vermouth and herbs. Add celery and garlic and coat well. Transfer garlic and celery with slotted spoon to crock pot. Place chicken on top and sprinkle with lemon juice and peel. Cover and cook on low 6 hours until chicken is no longer pink in center. Comments: Peeling 40 cloves of garlic is easy if after you break open heads you put cloves in boiling water for 30 seconds. Peel when cool.
