Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 16 oz boneless skinless chicken breast
  • 1 3/4 cups diced tomatoes
  • 1 tsp ground dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup golden raisins
  • 4 fl oz dry white wine
  • 3 tbsp white wheat flour
  • 4 oz sliced Sicilian olives

Directions

  • Place each chicken breast half between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap; pound each breast half to 1/2" thickness using a meat mallet or heavy skillet. Sprinkle both sides of chicken with salt and pepper.
  • Heat oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Place flour in a shallow dish; dredge chicken in flour.
  • Add chicken to pan; cook 3 minutes on each side or until lightly browned. Add wine; cook 1 minute.
  • Add olives and the next 4 ingredients (through tomatoes); bring to a boil.
  • Reduce heat, and simmer 8 minutes or until chicken is done. Sprinkle with basil.
  • Note: Sicilian olives are large green olives marinated in herbs; you can substitute Spanish manzanilla olives. Accompany with orzo pasta and Chianti, if you're pouring wine.
