Chicken with White Gravy

Aunt Dolly's
Ingredients:
Cut up chicken pieces (approx. 3 1/2 lbs.) (Mom said always make sure that there are plenty of thighs thrown in there to make the gravy dark.)
Plenty of fresh (never dried) Italian parsley (approx. 2/3 of a whole bunch), chopped fine
Plenty of chopped garlic (I go by sight..but it is at least 10 - 12 cloves-enough to "pepper" all the chicken pieces)
Salt/Pepper
Butter (approx. 2 tablespoons)
Olive Oil (approx. 3 tablespoons)
Can of College Inn Chicken Broth
 
Wash and lay chicken in the pan. Cover with chopped garlic, salt, pepper, parsley. Dot with the butter. Drizzle the olive oil over all the pieces. Put in 375 degree oven (uncovered) for about 20 minutes or so..then turn down to 350. Roast until brown - about 1 hr & 20 minutes to 1 hr and 30 minutes from the time you put it in the oven....turning once. The browner the chicken, the darker the sauce will be. When chicken is brown, add the college in and about 1/2 can of water (if you need more juice...otherwise open another can of broth).Toss gravy with cooked pasta and some grating cheese (Mom always used either Fusilli, Rotelle or Rigatoni).
