Garlic on Garlic with Garlic


The perk of having a somewhat randomly stranded Scandinavian house guest, is that they provide dinner every now and again. The following is a product of JJ's sorted family history and food culture, which spans from Scandinavia all the way to Greece (and beyond). A good mix as it turns out, it is yummy.

PS. Although the dish is called Garlic Chicken you don't need to add all the garlic in the world as it was done by our Guest in the Kitchen, who has a slight garlic fetish. The chicken was fried with half a garlic (6-8 gloves), which might be a little on the excessive side. Similarly the potatoes don't necessarily need to be covered in garlic as well.

Guest in the Kitchen: JJ's Garlic Chicken with pan fried Garlic Tatties 

Marinade
  • Olive oil
  • Lemon Juice
  • salt & pepper
  • coriander Oregano
  • 1 egg

  • Chicken ( breast per person)
  • Olive oil
  • Garlic

Make sure that the marinade has a thick consistency
Split a chicken breast (per person) into two halves and cover the pieces with the marinade. Let it sit in the fridge for about 2 hours before cooking.


Potatoes
Boil the potatoes in small pieces
Heat up a pan with olive oil
Mix salt pepper, chili powder, garlic powder - mixed herbs and fresh chopped garlic, lemon juice.
Throw on and keep browning the potatoes in the oil mix until golden brown. Enjoy immediately.

Serve with a side salad
