GARLIC FESTIVAL OLIVE STUFFED CHICKEN

GARLIC FESTIVAL OLIVE STUFFED CHICKEN

from garlicfestival.com

Serves four.

4 boneless chicken breast halves with skin

1 cup Garlic Festival^® Garlic Stuffed Olives, chopped coarsely

2 tbsp unsalted butter

Garli Garni (“the best seasoning in the world”)

1/4 cup whole almonds with skins

2 tbsp chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Cut a 2” long slit in thickest part of each chicken breast. Stuff each with 1 ½-2 tsp olives, season with Garli Garni. Heat 1 tbsp butter in a nonstick skillet over moderate heat, then toast almonds, stirring often, until a few shades darker, 5 to 8 min. Transfer to a cutting board to cool (do not clean skillet). Increase heat to medium high, add chicken, skin side down to the skillet and sprinkle with remaining olives. Sauté chicken until skins are golden brown, 8-10 mins. Turn chicken over and cook, covered, over moderate heat until just cooked through, 5 to 7 min. more. While chicken is cooking, chop almonds. Add remaining butter and 3 tbsp water or white wine to skillet and heat, stirring, until butter is melted. Stir in almonds, parsley & pepper to taste. Spoon sauce over chicken.

Back to blogging.. with a promo

We have really been slacking on the blog as all sort of other projects have come front and center. One of our goals is to revive the blog and share more recipes and articles of garlic interest with you all.
First off I want to share our latest promo.. Get a FREE ball cap for Dad, just in time for Father's Day!!!

Garlic Festival Foods = $$$ for YOU

Do you love garlic? Want to earn some extra cash and make tons of new friends? Would you wear a bulb of garlic on your head?

Garlic Festival Foods is the original purveyor of garlic laced gourmet specialties and we’re looking for a few good wo(men) to share our products with friends, relatives and heck, maybe even a few strangers.

Garlic Festival Foods is currently seeking interested, garlic loving parties to become Independent Consultants who would like to start their own home based business selling something delicious that everyone can use. We are an established (25+ years), fun loving business with a product line recognized nationwide. We are ready and able to help you set up your own small business and provide you with excellent support.  

Our award winning line of gourmet garlic laden products virtually sell themselves, they just need a little assistance getting from bottle to tongue (or nose.) And unlike cookware, jewelry and candles our products are products that customers become "hooked" on, are used up, and reordered over and over again.  Food products are largely "recession proof" as people still have to eat everyday and, if necessary, cut back on large ticket items instead of staples.

For a small investment, you can earn money by selling delicious food products to friends, family, co-workers and at events such as Farmer's Markets, Fairs, Festivals and other events. 

Visit our website at: http://www.garlicfestival.com/distributors.php to learn more about the opportunities with costs available to you.

We LOVE getting emails from our customers and we love that YOU love our products. It inspires us to keep making more. Here are a few recent comments:

About Garli Garni:
This is the worst crap I have ever tasted! (Just trying to make sure the supply never falls behind the demand!) If I were to run out of my Garli Garni, I would be stuck to only coffee and chocolate until I could get some more. I literally put this on everything but in my coffee or on my chocolate. Wait a minute! That's right! I have never tried it on chocolate! I will get back to you on that... Warning - If you love garlic, you will toss everything else you have once you try this! ~ Dale, Apache Junction, AZ
About Garli Glaze:

Amazing glaze!!! I put the glaze on salmon and bake it! I warm some Glaze up for a few seconds in the microwave and put a few drops of water in it so it spreads easier... Like a runny honey...Brush it on the salmon... Bake it at 450 degrees for about 9-12 min ( 4oz cuts). The flavor is amazing and always gets rave reviews for dinner! ~ Jasmine, Glendale, AZ

About Garlic Jalapeno Mustard:

We bought our 1st quart of Garlic Jalapeno Mustard in July at the Strawberry Festival on Vashon Island. I was a little concerned that we might never be able to use the contents of this large container. How wrong I was!!!! Within 2 weeks, it was ALL gone! My husband put this delicious mustard on EVERYTHING, and so did I (and I don't even like anything that is remotely spicey.) This mustard is awesome and all of our friends are ordering some of their own --after having tasted it at a recent bbq at our home. Might have to give it as Christmas gifts to our adult kids too, since each of them fell in love with it. Hands down, one of the best "finds" we have ever run in to ~ CJ, Bremerton, Washington

Guest Blogger: Garlic Festival Newbie

Good morning! It's day three of the Gilroy Garlic Festival and everyone is busy setting up. If you're planning to come down today be sure to stop by the booth (#62) and bring your coupon for a FREE Garli Goop Dip Mix (good with any purchase).

This was my first time at the Gilroy Garlic Festival and it's been such a great experience! The smells are absolutely fabulous - the garlic, BBQ, and other yummy foods fill the air. There have been some really great bands this year, too, and we've all had fun singing and dancing along in the booth. Even the weather has been cooperating!

I've been on a mission to try as much food as possible while here!! The first thing I had to have was roasted corn and I put a fair amount of Garlic Ghetti on it - and OMG was that good!! Not only did I get that great garlic taste but the Romano cheese flavor was a happy surprise!

The customer favorite this year seems to be the Spicy Apple Garlic Glaze. I loved it on pita chips but heard it is also great on a block of cream cheese with crackers or over ham. My personal favorite product to taste were the Garlic & Jalapeno Stuffed Olives!! For those who know me, I am not a huge fan of spice but these were to die for!!! In honor of the festival, I am hosting a giveaway drawing over on my blog!
