Instructions

  1. Dry off chicken pieces really well so a good sear can be achieved.
  2. Season dry chicken with the salt and pepper divided equally.  
  3. Heat pan to medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.  Add seasoned chicken to the pan in 2 batches to avoid crowding.  Cook approximately 2-3 minutes per side.  After all the chicken is cooked set aside and lightly cover with foil to keep warm.
  4. Turn heat to medium-low and to the same pan add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and garlic.  Saute until lightly golden (about 2 minutes).  Then, add tomatoes to the pan and saute for 1-2 minutes more.
  5. Add vinegar, water, and capers to the pan and turn heat to high.  Scrape the pan with a wooden spoon to remove flavorful bits.  Bring to boil for 2 minutes to make the sauce.
  6. Turn heat to low and add the cooked chicken back to the pan to combine all ingredients. Cook the chicken for 2 minutes or until warmed through.  
  7. Turn off the heat and add the parsley. Stir together.  Taste test and adjust salt and pepper if required.  Add a nice drizzle of extra virgin olive oil if desired.  Enjoy!

Notes

  • The number of tomatoes can be increased or decreased for more or less sauce.
  • The capers are very salty, so minimal salt was used.  Taste test before serving and make any final adjustments if required.
