Recipe notes and tips

• Use a preheated oven.
• Use stainless steel or cast iron skillet because they are oven safe.
• Opt for low sodium chicken broth if you want to control you salt content.
• When pan searing the chicken, it does not have to cook all the way through, this is just to give color to the chicken on the outside.
• To allow the chicken to cook evenly, beat the chicken into uniform slices.
• I used pitted Kalamata olives, these are the best in my opinion.
• Garnish with fresh oregano or parsley for a pop of color and a herbal note.

FAQ’s

Do I have to bake the chicken?

If you do not want to use an oven, you can pour in the marinade and just continue cooking on the stovetop on medium heat. It may take just about 5 minutes using this method.

Can I use other vegetables?

This is a versatile dish, you can add in any extra vegetable you prefer to make it more filling. But it must be something that’s easy to cook, like peppers, grape tomatoes, zucchini, broccoli, and squash because they will be cooking for just 10 minutes when it goes into the oven.

How do I know when my chicken is cooked through?

To make life easier, get yourself an instant read thermometer. Insert the thermometer into the thickest part of the chicken. Once it reads 165°F, the chicken is all done!
