Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 large lemon, juiced
½ teaspoon dried tarragon
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
20 pitted green olives

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Melt the butter in an oven-safe pan over medium heat. Stir the garlic, lemon juice, and tarragon into the butter. Cook the chicken breasts in the butter mixture until evenly browned, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Add the olives to the pan.
  • Transfer the pan to the preheated oven and bake until the chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

I'm not a big fan of olives, but I really enjoyed this dish. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the sauce was very flavorful. I would definitely make this again, even without the olives.
