Chicken to Garlic and Whiscky

1 glass of those of water with whiskey (if there is not whiskey, cognac or 1 tin of   beer)
6 teeth of garlic
Parsley
1 onion

5 teeth of garlic sour very fine, and they are mixed with the whiskey and you leave. The contramuslos in this mixture bathe and it is let rest one hour, so that it takes all the flavor. They slip, trying that is not left too much garlic stuck, and they are fried in abundant very hot oil. When they are gilded they retire. In a low and flat pot we put very little oil, whereupon it covers the bottom is sufficient, and rehogamos the very fine perforated onion until he is transparent. We added the last tooth of garlic cut in laminillas, and when everything is on the verge of gilding itself, we added to the mixture of whiskey and garlic, and a water small glass. We put the contramuslos later and we let cook to untimed fire until the sauce thickens. If the sauce is oily, we will retire the oil leftover that is floating on the sauce with a spoon. For trimming: In the supermarkets there are small potatoes that come cut in laminillas and packaged in on from plastic. If the rehogamos with the leftover oil of the sauce and a little parsley, the plate will be round. With verduritas also done in very hot car it to me and you leave fat person is wonderfully.
