Ingredients

  • 1 garlic clove, sliced thin
  • 4 free-range boneless, skinless chicken breasts, pounded thin
  • Flour for dredging, seasoned with salt and pepper
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 large tomatoes, chopped
  • 2 teaspoons capers, chopped
  • ½ cup olives, chopped
  • ¼  cup white wine or water
  • 2 tablespoons fresh oregano, minced
  • ½ cup feta cheese, crumbled

Instructions

  • Place seasoned flour in a small bowl and dip the chicken breasts, thoroughly coating all sides. Heat oil in a large skillet and cook the breasts for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through (internal temperature should read 165). Remove chicken from the pan and keep warm.
  • Add the wine to the pan and raise the heat to high. Bring the liquid to a boil while you scrape the browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
  • Once deglazed, add the tomatoes to the pan and season lightly with salt and pepper. Immediately add the capers and olives. Cook for 2-3 minutes more, until the tomatoes begin to break down.
  • Place each chicken breast on a plate and spoon the tomato, caper and olive mixture over top.
  • Add crumbled feta and sprinkle with oregano to serve.
