Ingredients

  • 2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 3 plum tomatoes, seeded and chopped
  • 1/2 cup black olives, halved
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary
  • 6 cloves garlic, pressed
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 (750 milliliter) bottle dry white wine

Directions

  1. Place chicken breasts between 2 sheets of plastic wrap. Using a meat tenderizing hammer, pound each breast to about 1/2 inch thick.

  3. Add tomatoes and olives to the pan; continue cooking, covered, for approximately 10 minutes
