Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 2 tablespoons white wine

  • 2 teaspoons olive oil

  • 6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • ½ cup diced onion

  • 3 cups tomatoes, chopped

  • ½ cup white wine

  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme

  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil

  • ½ cup kalamata olives

  • ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley

  • salt and pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Heat white wine and oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken and cook until golden, about 4 to 6 minutes on each side. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.

  2. Add garlic to pan drippings; sauté for 30 seconds. Add onion; cook and stir until onions are tender, about 3 minutes. Add tomatoes and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and add 1/2 cup white wine; simmer for 10 minutes. Add thyme and basil and simmer for 5 more minutes.

  3. Return chicken to skillet, cover, and cook over low heat until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink inside. Add olives and parsley; cook for 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper and serve.
