Ingredients:

Serving

2 chickens (about 3 1/2 lb each), backbones cut out and each chicken cut into 12 pieces ( see cooks' note, below)
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 tbsp chopped thyme
1 tbsp chopped rosemary
1 tbsp fine sea salt
1/2 to 1 tsp hot red-pepper flakes
10 garlic cloves, peeled
2 (1/4-inch- thick) slices pancetta , cut into 1-inch pieces
1 cup dry white wine
24 oil-cured black olives

Directions:

Preheat oven to 450°F with rack in middle.
Toss chicken with oil, thyme, rosemary, sea salt, red-pepper flakes, and 1 teaspoon pepper, rubbing mixture into chicken.
Arrange chicken, skin side up, in 1 layer in a 17-by 11-inch 4-sided sheet pan. Scatter garlic and pancetta on top and roast until chicken begins to brown, about 20 minutes. Drizzle wine over chicken and roast 8 minutes more. Scatter olives over chicken and roast until skin is golden brown and chicken is cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes more. Let stand 10 minutes.
Cooks' note: To cut a chicken into 12 pieces, remove wings and cut each breast half into 3 pieces, then separate drumsticks and thighs. Backbones can be used to make chicken stock.
