garlic chicken

Aromatic roasted bird

Garlic chicken is a dish of chicken cooked with garlic as the dominant flavoring.

The preparation varies widely—roasted whole birds studded with cloves, stir-fried pieces in garlic sauce, or braised thighs swimming in it.

The name promises garlic will be the star: I ordered the garlic chicken and could smell it before it reached the table.
