2 tbsp minced garlic or garlic paste
Salt and pepper
1 tbsp dried oregano, divided
Private Reserve extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 large lemon, juice of
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 cup finely chopped red onion
1 1/2 cup small-diced tomatoes
1/4 cup sliced green olives
Handful of fresh parsley, stems removed, chopped
Crumbled feta cheese, optional

Steps:

Pat the chicken breasts dry. On each side of the chicken breasts make three slits through.
Spread the garlic on both sides; insert some garlic into the slits you made. Season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt, pepper and 1/2 of the dried oregano.
In a large cast iron skillet, heat 2 tbsp of olive oil on medium-high. Brown the chicken on both sides. Add the white wine and let reduce by 1/2 then add the lemon juice and chicken broth. Sprinkle the remaining oregano on top. Reduce the heat to medium. Cover with a lid or tightly with foil. Cook for 10-15 mins turning the chicken over once (chicken's internal temperature should reach 165 degrees F.)
Uncover and top with the chopped onions, tomatoes and olives. Cover again and cook for only 3 minutes. Finally add the parsley and feta cheese. Serve with a light pasta, rice or couscous. Enjoy

This also may be made using skin on chicken pieces also such as legs and/or thighs, for the best flavor try to use a mixture of red and yellow teardrop tomatoes, this is not for anyone with a plain palette.

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

8 boneless chicken breasts
salt and black pepper
olive oil
1 1/2 lbs small white button mushrooms, sliced
1 small onion, chopped (can use about 2 tablespoons shallots instead of onions)
2 tablespoons minced fresh garlic (or to taste)
1 -2 teaspoon dried chili pepper flakes (optional)
1 1/2 cups chicken broth
3/4 pitted kalamata olive (or to taste)
3 large plum tomatoes, diced
2 tablespoons capers
3 tablespoons butter
2 cups small grape tomatoes (also known as teardrop)
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Season the chicken with salt and pepper, then brown on both sides (about 3-4 minutes on each side) remove to a large platter, cover with foil to keep warm (I put my plate in a 200 degree oven to stay warm).
To the same skillet, add in the mushrooms and saute until all of the liquid is absorbed (about 6-7 minutes).
Add in onions, garlic and dried chili flakes (if using) to the mushrooms and saute for about 3-4 minutes.
Add in the chicken broth; simmer for about 6 minutes or until most of the liquid is absorbed.
Add in the Kalamata olives, plum tomatoes and capers, season with salt and pepper; bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 10 minutes or until the liquid is reduced by half.
Add in butter and stir until melted.
Mix in the small teardrop tomatoes; simmer for about 5 minutes (you can simmer a bit longer).
Season again with salt and pepper.
Spoon the mixture over the chicken.
Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley.
