The reviewer gave this recipe 3 stars. This recipe averages a 4.34 star rating.
Reviewed: Sep. 5, 2008
It smelled great, but lacked flavor. I don't know that I would make it again, but if I did I would probably consider using two cloves of chopped garlic and frying the chicken with them. Later, I would add the other ingredients minus the broth and just add a 1/2 chicken bouillon cube and a little bit of water. 45 minutes was too long, I'm sure it would have been fine after 20min. Good luck, I hope you can pull more flavor out of your dish than mine had!

This is awesome! I followed the recipe exactly except I didn't use any oil. I started the recipe with my chicken breasts in a pan with the chicken broth and seasonings. I large diced about 5 small to medium tomatoes - did not peel all the skin off. The first time I made this I used saffron rice and it was ok, the second time, I made angel hair pasta and after it was cooked, I added it to the pan so it could stuck up the flavor of the sauce. I did end up thickening the sauce just a little. All of my family loved it - from the 3 year old to the finicky hubby!

Excellent, flavored-packed chicken. I used a whole chicken rather than breasts, canned tomatoes rather than fresh, and added a good shake of basil. I was out of white wine, so I used red, but white would have been better. This was great served over rice!

Great for something different. To eliminate some cooking time, i removed the chicken after simmering for about 15 wrapped in tin foil, and brought rest of dish to a boil for a few minutes than added corn starch on low to thicken. Turned out perfect! I also altered this recipe by adding fresh green beans with rest of ingredients & i removed them as well with chicken before boiling.

Made this last night and was very good. My husband really liked it. I also thickened the sauce with a little cornstarch. Thanks for this recipe.

I love this recipe!!! It is so easy to make, I always serve with rice, frenchbread, green beans and salad!My 6 year old is the pickiest eater and he loves this, last night he said momma this is the best dinner ever. The only thing I do different is I use canned tomatos instead of fresh.

This recipe was great. I used calamata olives instead of the green ones with pimentos. Turned out wonderful. Will definitely make again!

Delicious. The sauce is very runny, however so I suggest thickening it. I used cornstarch which worked OK. The flavor was delicious, and the green olive flavor was not overpowering as I had thought they would be. I used canned tomatoes with basil and chopped them up for extra flavor. Will be making again, next time with pasta (not rice).

This is an easy, tasty, versatile recipe made with simple ingredients. It is great as is but I do usually substitute boneless thighs and canned tomatoes. The only real change I make is adding in a bit of butter just at the finish which thickens the sauce and makes it stick better to pasta. Also, if you are a veggie gardener like me, this is a great recipe for using up some of your zucchini. Just put slices in a few minutes before serving.

I give it 2 stars because I wasn't so fond of that vinagary taste. Husband gave it 4 stars he said it was good. But I wouldn't make this dish again. Sorry...

This was different but good. I love olives...I only simmered the chicken for about 10 minutes or so...not 45 minutes..My goodness, it would have tasted like rubber...I probably won't make it again, but I am glad I tried it :)

This did not turn out good , the chicken was tough and overdone. I followed the recipe precisley as it sounded very good , we all like green olives but were unhappy with the texture.

I loved this recipe. Thank you to the other reviewers. I did thicken the sauce by whisking corn starch into a small amount of cold water. I also added about 2 tbls.of onion. I only had cheap chardonnay, but the taste was still good. I served it with rice made with chicken broth. My husband who isn't crazy about olives, said that it was real good.
