    Serves 4

Ingredients

1 4- to 4 1/2-pound chicken, cut into 10 pieces (2 breasts, each halved; 2 wings; 2 thighs; 2 drumsticks)
9 garlic cloves
1 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
4 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary or 3 teaspoons dried
2 1/2 tablespoons grated lemon peel
1/2 teaspoon sugar
3 15-ounce cans cannellini (white kidney beans), rinsed, drained

  1. Step 1

    Arrange chicken in 12x9x2-inch baking dish. Mince 5 garlic cloves; mix in 1 teaspoon salt. Rub garlic mixture into chicken. Mix lemon juice, 2 tablespoons oil, 2 tablespoons rosemary, lemon peel and sugar in small bowl. Pour over chicken. Season with pepper. Cover; chill up to 3 hours.
