Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Cut the chicken into 10 serving pieces.

  2. Step 2

    Drop the tomatoes into a pot of boiling salted water. Immediately remove from heat and let stand for about 10 seconds. Drain tomatoes and peel. Cut away and discard the core. Cut the tomatoes into ¾-inch cubes. There should be about 2 cups.

  3. Step 3

    Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper to taste.

  4. Step 4

    Heat the oil on medium heat in a large, heavy skillet. Brown chicken about 10 minutes on the skin side. Turn and brown 8 minutes on the other side. Drain off all the fat.

  5. Step 5

    Sprinkle the shallots and garlic between the pieces of chicken and cook briefly, stirring, but do not brown. Add the vinegar and cook over medium heat until most of the vinegar has evaporated. Add the tomatoes, thyme and bay leaf. Cover tightly and simmer for 10 minutes.

  6. Step 6

    Uncover and remove the sprig of thyme and bay leaf. Reduce the liquid by half. Swirl in the butter. Sprinkle with the basil and serve.
