Ingredients

  • 2 Chicken breast quite large
  • 1/2 Cup white wine
  • 4 tomatoes diced into large pieces
  • 2 Tablespoons capers
  • 1/4 Cup black olives cut in half
  • 3-4 Sun dried tomatoes roughly chopped
  • 2 Tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • Small bunch of fresh chopped parsley extra for topping the dish
  • 1 Teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/3 Cup Parmesan cheese finely grated
  • 2 Tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 Garlic cloves crushed
  • 1 Teaspoon sea salt
  • Black pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Place the chicken on a large cutting board and with a sharp knife cut each piece in half through the middle, so you have 4 chicken fillets about 1 inch thick. Put the chicken fillets in a deep sided baking dish and set aside.
  • In a large skillet set over medium to high heat add the olive oil and garlic. Stir for a minute and add the tomatoes. Stir well and allow to soften while cooking. After about 5 minutes, add 1/2 of the wine. Allow to reduce for 5 more minutes. Add the sun dried tomatoes, balsamic vinegar, capers, black olives, oregano, salt, pepper and chopped parsley. Stir well and add the remaining cooking wine. Leave to simmer, stirring regularly for 5 more minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Pour the tomato mixture over the chicken coating completely. Bake in oven for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and evenly sprinkle over parmesan cheese. Return to oven for 5 more minutes. Remove from oven and toss over remaining parsley. Let stand a few minutes before serving.
