    List of Ingredients




    4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (1-1¼ lb)
    ¼ c all-purpose flour
    ½ tsp salt or to taste
    Freshly ground pepper, to taste
    1 Tbsp extra-virgin olive or canola oil
    1 sm onion, finely chopped
    3 cloves garlic, minced
    ½ tsp anchovy paste (optional)
    ½ c reduced-sodium chicken broth
    ¼ c dry white wine
    1 (14½ oz) can diced tomatoes
    ¼ c chopped fresh basil
    2 Tbsp chopped black olives

    Recipe



    Trim visible fat from chicken breasts. Remove the tenders (the long thin flaps); reserve for another use. Place trimmed chicken breasts between 2 pieces of plastic wrap. Pound with a rolling pin, meat mallet or heavy skillet until flattened to an even thickness, about ½ inch. Combine flour, salt, and pepper in a shallow glass dish. Dredge chicken in seasoned flour, shaking off excess. (Discard any leftover flour.)

    Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until well browned and no longer pink in the center, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate, cover and keep warm.

    Add onion, garlic and anchovy paste, if using, to the skillet; cook over medium heat, stirring, for 1 minute. Add broth, wine, and tomatoes; bring to a simmer. Cook until slightly thickened, 6 to 7 minutes. Stir in basil and olives. Return the chicken and juices to the pan; reduce heat to low and heat through. Spoon sauce over the chicken.
