While raw garlic is potent & sharp, when oven roasted it takes on a mellow, delicate sweetness. Mmmmmmm I can taste it now.....

How To Make chicken with roasted garlic sauce
-
1Rinse chicken; pat dry. Flatten 7 of the garlic cloves & place inside the body cavity of chicken. Skewer neck skin to back; tie legs to tail. Twist wings under back. Combine the minced garlic & salt. Brush chicken with oil, then rub garlic salt mixture onto the skin.

2Place chicken, breast side up, on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. In another ovenproof pan combine remaining garlic cloves & the water. Place both pans in a preheated 375 degrees F. oven & roast, uncovered, for 1 1/4 - 1 1/2 hours, or till juices run clear & the drumsticks move easily in their sockets. Spoon drippings over chicken occasionally. If necessary, cover chicken with foil for the last 20 minutes of roasting to prevent overbrowning. Check garlic cloves to be sure they have enough water to cook gently, but not burn. Transfer chicken to a serving platter. Let stand, covered loosely with foil, for 15 minutes before carving.

3Meanwhile, pour pan drippings into a large measuring cup. Also scrape browned bits into the cup. Skim & reserve fat from drippings. Place 1/4 C of the fat into a medium saucepan (discard remaining fat). Stir in flour; cook & stir for 2 minutes, or till flour is golden. To the remaining drippings in measuring cup, add the cooked garlic cloves & their cooking water & enough chicken broth to equal 2 C. Add all at once to flour mixture. Cook & stir over medium heat till thickened & bubbly. Cook & stir for 2 minutes more. Stir in lemon juice & season to taste with pepper. If desired, garnish with parsley.
