This is a really easy but great dish. You just need to be able to hang around the house a while for the cooking time.
4 chicken drumsticks and 4 chicken quarters (legs and thighs joined)
sea salt and freshly ground pepper
a big bunch of fresh basil, roughly chopped
1 lb. cherry tomatoes, halved
10 cloves garlic, chopped
olive oil
1.5 lbs new potatoes
Preheat oven to 275. Season chicken with salt and pepper and put them in a snug-fitting pan in one layer. Throw in all the basil, the halved cherry tomatoes and the potatoes. Scatter the garlic cloves into the pan and drizzle over some olive oil. Mix around, pushing the tomatoes and potatoes underneath the chicken. Place in the oven and bake for 1 hour. Take it out and stir it all around a bit and raise the heat to 325 and cook for another 2 hours. It's done when you see clear juice coming from the chicken when pierced and the meat falls off the bone.
