    3                    frying chickens cut into serving sizes
      1/4  cup           olive oil
    2      large         carrots
    6      stalks        celery
    2      large         onions
   40      cloves        garlic (5 or 6 heads should do)
      1/2  cup           chopped fresh parsley
    1      cup           dry white wine
                         Salt and pepper
 
 If you buy whole chickens, cut them into serving size pieces. Rub the pieces
 with olive oil. Peel the carrots and cut into chunks about 2-3 inches long.
 Cut the celery into pieces about the same length. Cut the onions in half
 lengthwise (not across as for slices) and divide each half into long narrow
 pieces (match sticks). Peel the garlic but leave whole. Arrange the chicken
 pieces in a casserole with a tight lid. Distribute the carrots, celery,
 garlic, and parsley over chicken. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Pour the
 dry white wine over all. Put a layer of foil over all, large enough that it
 will stick out after the lid has been put in place. Put the lid on the
 casserole and bake at 350F for 1 1/2 hours.
 
 YIELD: 6-8 servings

 NOTES : Don't worry!! By cooking for a long time, the garlic flavor
 permeates the chicken and the garlic itself mellows in flavor at the same time.
