List of ingredients for Chicken in sherry and garlic


* 1.3 kg whole Chicken, jointed and skin removed - See here
* Lemon juice and Salt (time dependent)
* 6 tablespoons of Olive oil
* 6 Cloves of Garlic, unpeeled and smashed with the back of a frying-pan - always good fun!
* Handful of Spring onions, chopped roughly
* No more than ½ teaspoon Fennel seeds
* 2 fresh Bay leaves
* 100 ml Dry sherry
* 100 ml water
* 1 tablespoon Sherry vinegar
* Sea salt and Freshly ground black pepper

===Method===
* If you have time, squeeze the juice of 1 Lemon over the Chicken pieces and season well with Salt; set aside for an hour or so.
* Heat the Olive oil in a large Dutch oven or similar
* Add the Garlic and Spring onions and Simmer in the Olive oil on a low heat (don't let it burn!) for about 15 minutes to flavour the Oil. Discard the garlic and spring Onions.
* Turn up the heat a little and Brown the Chicken pieces really well, a few at a time or you will end up Steaming the chicken
* Add all of the Browned Chicken pieces back to the pan, reduce the heat and add the Fennel seeds, Bay leaves and a dash of Sea salt
* Sauté for 10 minutes then add the Sherry and cook for a minute or two then add the water
* Cover and Simmer of about 15 minutes until the thickest piece of Chicken is cooked
