Mosca's Chicken

3/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
10 cloves unpeeled garlic, mashed
1 3-lb. chicken, cut into eighths
2 tsp. rosemary
1/2 tsp. salt
2 tsp. oregano
1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
1 cup dry white wine

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil until it is hot, and add the chicken pieces. Turn the chicken often, cooking the pieces until they are browned. Sprinkle the chicken pieces with salt and pepper. Add the garlic, rosemary, and oregano, stirring to distribute the seasonings. Pour the wine over the chicken, and simmer until the wine is reduced by half.

Serve the chicken hot with the pan juices.
