About Oven Baked Garlic Chicken Recipe
A supreme garlic and chicken combination is richened, mixed with herbs, and cooked to smooth perfection. Garlic powder also works well for this. Garlic, like apple cider vinegar, is believed to stimulate the appetite and aid in growth. Parasites are deterred. Garlics allicin is thought to make the blood of chickens, which the mites feed on,
taste unpleasant. If you prefer a natural mite repellent, garlic is worth a shot.
How could such a yummy recipe can be this simple. Yes it is too simple, just a simple marination required. That calls for just blending few stuffs together. The longer you marinate the chicken the better the flavour. I usually do marination the night before and leave it to infuse overnight, then cook it the next day.

Chicken :
Chicken is high in a variety of nutrients, including protein, niacin, selenium, and phosphorus. It is high in a variety of essential nutrients and can be an excellent addition to a well-balanced diet. Because chicken is low in calories but high in protein, it may be particularly beneficial for weight loss if that is your goal.
Garlic :
Garlic has a distinct, pungent flavour that, when raw, borders on spicy and, when cooked, borders on nutty. Sulfur compounds, such as diallyl disulfide, contribute to the mustard-like flavour profile. It loses its acrid raw flavour when dried and crushed into garlic powder, making it ideal for seasoning dishes.

Hi Arti. I have made this chicken 3 times already. Its now my favourite marinade for baked chicken . The chicken is so moist and yummy.
I keep the chicken to bake on a rack over a pan so i dont have to pour out the extra liquid.
