Brown chicken, a few pieces at a time, in hot fat; remove; keep warm. 3. Saute onion and garlic in drippings until soft; stir in wine and brandy; bring to boiling, stirring constantly. Stir in chopped tomatoes; arrange browned chicken pieces in casserole, spooning sauce over. 4. Tie a bouquet garni of parsley, bay leaf and thyme in cheesecloth; push down into sauce; cover. (If using a skillet, place chicken in a 12-cup casserole; pour sauce over and add bouquet garni; cover.) 5. Bake in moderate oven (350) 1 hour.
