I love cooking with Mediterranean ingredients. Olive Oil. Olives, Tomatoes. Lemon. They all add a certain richness and a ton of flavor to just about any dish. And that includes this Chicken dish from Donna Hay
It is simply baked chicken but baked with olives, lemon zest, parsley, and plenty of garlic (cause I added a little extra).
Instead of using a whole chicken I had one HUGE chicken breast which I sliced In half and baked. I put a little extra garlic under the chicken. It was very good.
This week’s pick is from Peggy. Definitely a repeat.
TO see what the others thought just zip on over to the Wednesday with Donna Hay Website.

Looks just like mine, and I sliced the chicken breast in half like you did as well…I don’t know where they are getting these chicken breasts these days, but they are HUGE. Too much for just one person. This was a very good recipe, I will make this one again. 🙂

I did the same as you and cut a chicken breast in half! I always cut mine in half. Usually they are so big they would serve three or four people! Glad you like this dish. I think it was a good pick!

I have stopped buying quartered chicken. We love the breast and almost any recipe can be adjusted to make a good meal. it also takes less time and I think time is more important than money, these days. Life is busy.
You ended up with an attractive and colorful dish.
