Chicken With Olives

Features:
    Cuisine:

    This was a hearty meal which I served over pasta. I did find that I was able to successfully cut back on the oil to 2 tsp & also cut back a bit on the olives(about 10). Used the optional saffrom & anchovies and both were great additions. I rounded the meal out with a simple mixed greens salad and it was just delightful. Thank you Derf for sharing the recipe.
