Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 chicken breasts
2 tbsp polenta
2 tbsp freshly grated parmesan
1 tsp chopped fresh thyme
3 tbsp olive oil
2-3 tbsp black olive tapenade
3 halved large vine-ripened tomatoes

Steps:

  • Mix together the polenta, Parmesan,chopped fresh thyme and olive oil.
  • Skin the chicken breasts, spread with the black olive tapenade, then put them in a baking dish on a bed of thyme sprigs together with the tomatoes. Pat crumbs on chicken and tomatoes, drizzle with the olive oil.
  • Roast the chicken breasts in a baking dish, uncovered, for 30-35 minutes in a preheated oven (190C/gas 5/fan oven 170C). To check if they are done, prod the chicken with your finger - if it's still a bit soft, give it a bit longer.
  • Serve with salad and crusty bread.
