Ingredients

cooking spray
8 small red potatoes, halved
1 (16 ounce) jar four cheese Alfredo sauce
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon olive oil
¼ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 ½ pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cut into large chunks
4 Roma (plum) tomatoes, quartered
4 cloves garlic, peeled
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
12 pitted kalamata olives, cut in half

Steps:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
Place potatoes into a microwave-safe bowl, and cook in microwave oven on High setting for 2 minutes; turn potatoes over (watch for steam) and cook 2 more minutes on High. Set potatoes aside.
Mix together the Alfredo sauce, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic in a bowl. Place the chicken pieces into the prepared baking dish, and generously brush chicken with about 1 cup of the mixture. Arrange the potatoes, tomatoes, and garlic cloves around the chicken. Brush the vegetables with the remaining sauce mixture. Sprinkle the chicken and vegetables with rosemary and olives.

PAN ROASTED MEDITERRANEAN CHICKEN WITH BACON & VINE TOMATOES

Pan Roasted Mediterranean Chicken With Bacon & Vine Tomatoes image

This is another possibly for ZWT3. It is not my recipe and I don't know who gave it to me but I made this quite awhile ago and will keep this on hand. It's is delish and was easy for me to make. I used the "I can't believe it's not butter" Mediterrean style margarine for (2nd ingred) listed and I used bacon instead of pancetta and served it with a tossed green salad.

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

4 whole chicken breasts, skin on
4 tablespoons olive oil margarine
1/2 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
3 1/2 ounces diced pancetta or 3 1/2 ounces bacon
8 1/2 ounces small vine-ripe tomatoes
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 cup dry white wine
fresh ground salt
ground pepper

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Toss the chicken breasts in 1/4 cup olive oil to coat well.
Loosen the skin carefully from the breast, and stuff 1 tablespoon of Olive Grove rub under each breast.
Roll the white meat over any excess rub.
Place an oven-proof frying pan over high heat and add remaining 1/4 cup of olive oil and the diced pancetta or bacon.
Fry until crisp and browned, then put to one side on kitchen towel to drain the oil.
Return the pan to a high heat and add the butter. When the butter begins to brown, add the breasts skin-side down.
When nicely golden, turn and brown the other side. This will take approximately one minute per side.
Remove from heat.
Deglaze the pan with the white wine and add back the pancetta or bacon.
Arrange the tomatoes around the chicken breasts. Sprinkle sugar over the tomatoes and toss gently to coat in pan juices. Season with salt and pepper and bake in the oven for around 10 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
