Salt & pepper the chicken on both sides.  Brown chicken in oil.  Push to
one side and add sliced onion and carrots and saute'. Add garlic and
olives, saute' a moment then add the wine, rosemary, sage, and half the
basil. Bring to a simmer. Pour stewed tomatoes and tomato sauce over the
chicken, add broth to bring the liquid up to just below covering the
chicken.  Baste chicken with pan liquids. Return to simmer, cover tightly
and braise for about 1 hour, until chicken is falling off the bone.
Just before serving, top with fresh chopped basil.  Serve with rotini on
the side, covered with the resulting sauce, a good Tuscan bread and grated
parmesan.  Bela!

“We can do nothing, we say sometimes, we can only pray. That, we feel, is a terribly precarious second-best. So long as we can fuss and work and rush about, so long as we can lend a hand, we have some hope; but if we have to fall back upon God — ah, then things must be critical indeed! #A.J. Gossip”
