CHICKEN AND OLIVES



Chicken and Olives image

The sharp, briny bite of olives is the dominant flavors here, which is why it pairs so well with chicken breast. This is one of those dishes where, if you tasted the chicken and sauce separately, you probably wouldn't be very impressed, but together they're magic.

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 boneless chicken breast halves with skin
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
2 teaspoons herbes de Provence
2 tablespoons olive oil
¼ cup sliced shallots
½ cup pitted and sliced green olives
½ cup brine-cured pitted olives, such as Kalamata, halved lengthwise and brine reserved
1 cup chicken broth
1 lemon, zested and juiced
½ teaspoon cumin
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons cold butter, cut into four pieces

Steps:

  • Season skin-side of chicken with salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Turn breasts over and season skinless side with salt, black pepper, cayenne, and herbes de Provence. Turn again so that the skin-side is facing up; rest for 10 minutes.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Place chicken skin-side down in hot oil. Reduce heat to medium-high and cook chicken until skin is well-browned, about 5 minutes. Turn chicken and cook until just browned, about 2 minutes; transfer to a plate.
  • Reduce heat to medium. Cook and stir shallots in the hot skillet until just softening and golden brown, about 2 minutes. Stir olives into shallots and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  • Pour the chicken broth into the skillet; bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Add lemon juice, 2 tablespoons of the reserved olive brine, lemon zest, and cumin; increase heat to high and cook until sauce is reduced by half, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to low and return chicken, skin-side up, to the skillet. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 5 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove chicken to a plate and cover with aluminum foil.
  • Stir parsley and butter into sauce, stirring continuously until butter is melted and sauce is shiny. Spoon sauce over chicken.

CHICKEN ROASTED WITH TOMATOES, POTATOES, AND OLIVES



Chicken Roasted with Tomatoes, Potatoes, and Olives image

Categories     Chicken     Garlic     Olive     Potato     Tomato     Roast     Lemon     Rosemary     Gourmet

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 10

7 garlic gloves
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 large lemon, sliced thin
1 whole chicken breast with skin and bone (about 1 pound), halved
1 pound small red potatoes (about 2 inches in diameter), washed well
4 plum tomatoes halved, lengthwise
10 Kalamata or other brine-cured black olives, pitted and sliced thin lengthwise
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary leaves or 1 teaspoon dried crumbled rosemary

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450°F. and oil a 13-by 9-inch shallow baking pan.
  • Mince and mash 2 garlic cloves to a paste with salt. In a small bowl whisk together garlic paste, lemon juice, and 2 tablespoons oil with salt and pepper to taste. In pan make 2 beds of overlapping lemon slices and put a chicken breast half, skin side up, on each bed. Brush chicken generously with some of the garlic lemon mixture and season with salt and pepper.
  • Quarter potatoes and in a bowl toss with tomatoes, remaining 5 whole garlic cloves, and remaining tablespoon oil until coated well. Arrange vegetables around chicken and sprinkle chicken with olives and rosemary.
  • Roast chicken and vegetables in middle of oven 15 minutes and brush with remaining garlic lemon mixture. Roast chicken 10 to 15 minutes more, or until a meat thermometer registers 175°F. and chicken is cooked through.
  • Discard lemon slices and serve chicken with vegetables, spooning any pan juices over them.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of tomatoes. This will give your dish a more complex flavor. Cherry tomatoes, Roma tomatoes, and heirloom tomatoes are all good choices.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking dish. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly.
  • Season the chicken generously. Don't be afraid to use a lot of salt and pepper. You can also add other spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Roast the chicken at a high temperature. This will help to create a crispy skin.
  • Add the olives and tomatoes during the last 15 minutes of cooking. This will prevent them from becoming overcooked.
  • Serve the chicken immediately. This dish is best enjoyed when it is hot out of the oven.

Conclusion:

One-dish baked chicken with tomatoes and olives is a delicious and easy-to-make meal. It is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a casual gathering with friends. The chicken is moist and flavorful, and the tomatoes and olives add a pop of color and flavor. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
