Portuguese Chicken Baked With Potatoes and Garlic

Brian Holley's Note:

Very easy dish to cook, an all in one recipe. Potatoes are a number one food in Portugal. I cook this on the Weber gas grill, or in the oven. It's an interesting, healthy and delicious dish. The garlic will turn creamy and mild with cooking, we fight over who gets the most.
