Chicken Divine

This is a delightful, quick dish that makes busy days much easier. Tons of flavor. I recommend purchasing organic chicken, parts (very expensive) or organic whole chickens (inexpensive and easy to cut up). The flavor is much superior to non-organic products. Trader Joe's has decent pricing on organic chickens; whole or pieces.

What you need

  1. 6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs or 3 breasts
  2. Oil
  3. 2 cloves garlic, minced
  4. 2 small anchovies
  5. 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
  6. 1/2 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes
  7. 1/2 cup pitted kalamata olives, chopped
  8. 1 1/2 tsp capers, lightly chopped
  9. 1/2 bottle fruity white wine (I use our 2005 Sauvignon Blanc)
  10. 2-3 Tbl fresh basil, chopped or torn
  11. No salt is required for this dish!

How to make it

  1. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat and mash the anchovies into it
  2. Make sure chicken is dry, then add to oil and brown lightly on both sides
  3. Add garlic and red pepper flakes and turn the chicken to coat
  4. Add wine, sun-dried tomatoes, olives and capers
  5. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook until chicken is done
  6. Turn off heat, top with basil

Serve with Rice on the Side. Serves 2-3.
