If you like my one pot honey garlic chicken  or my one pan chili lime chicken ,I have a feeling you would like this one pot garlic chicken recipe too. You guys know how much I love garlic and I think a meal is incomplete without it…lol.

Garlic chicken marinade

In a deep bowl, mix together 1/4 cup wine, 1/4 cup chicken broth, garlic, salt, pepper, lemon juice, Italian seasoning. Add chicken and marinate for at least 1 hour or overnight for a deeper flavor.

Garlic chicken gravy

Cook the marinade in a nonstick pot on medium high heat until it’s reduced to a gravy consistency. If you like, you can also mix in diluted cornstarch or flour to make it thicker.

Chicken with garlic sauce

The sauce is made with wine, broth and flavored with 40 cloves garlic, salt, pepper, lemon juice, Italian seasoning. It’s cooked until it’s reduced and becomes thick.

Garlic chicken pasta

Serve this chicken with boiled spaghetti or just toss boiled noodles in the pot with the chicken and sauce. Garnish with some shredded parmesan cheese.

Creamy garlic chicken

There are 2 ways to make this meal creamy:

1. Dilute cornstarch or flour with some water and mix that into the sauce.
2. Add 1/3 cup cream cheese and mix that into the sauce. The flavor does change this way.

Tips for easy garlic chicken recipe:

• Use unsalted butter and low sodium both to prevent the meal from becoming too salty.
• Whole chicken breasts or thighs or drumsticks can easily be used in this recipe. I like to use cube sized chicken breast pieces because they cook faster.
• Don’t chop the garlic into small pieces because whole garlic needs to be used.
• Adjust the amount of Italian seasoning based on your preference.
