Chicken With 40 Cloves of Garlic

Ingredients:
40 Cloves of Garlic: about 4 heads
1 Whole Chicken
1 Tbsp. Butter
1 Onion: chopped
2 Celery stalks: diced
1 tsp. Thyme
1/2 tsp. Salt
1/4 tsp. Pepper or Cracked black Peppercorns
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1/2 C. White Wine

Directions:
Peel garlic and place half in the bottom of a prepared crock pot (spray it with pam to make clean-up easier). Place whole chicken on top. In a skillet over medium heat add onions and celery to pan and cook, stirring, until softened. Add thyme, salt, pepper or peppercorns and nutmeg and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add white wine and bring to a boil. Pour over chicken add remaining garlic. Cover and cook on high 4-6 hours and low 8-10 hours until juices from chicken run clear.

Side notes: I also usually add new red potatoes, if they are small whole if they are larger cut into 2" chunks, during the last 2 hours of cooking time for high or 4 hours for low. If you add them too early they get too soft.
