    Main Ingredient:


    Pasta




  • Ingredients


    4 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
    4 large boneless, skinless, thin-sliced chicken breast cutlets (4 ounces each)
    Salt and black pepper
    6 garlic cloves, minced
    1 can (28 ounces) plum tomatoes, chopped
    1/2 cup kalamata olives, pitted and chopped
    2 tablespoons capers, drained
    1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
    1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
    1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
    8 ounces whole-wheat pasta





    Directions


    1. Preheat oven to 250°F. Warm 2 teaspoons of oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot.

    2. Season cutlets with salt and pepper; add to hot pan and cook 2 minutes, until browned.

    3. Flip; cook 30 seconds. Transfer cutlets to a baking sheet; cover with foil and place in oven to keep warm.

    4. Add remaining 2 teaspoons of oil to the same skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and cook 10 seconds, stirring.

    5. Add tomatoes, olives, capers, and pepper flakes and bring to a simmer. Cook 5 minutes, until slightly thickened, stirring to break up tomatoes.

    6. Stir in lemon juice and basil.

    7. Meanwhile, cook pasta according to package directions; drain.

    8. Toss with tomato sauce; serve with cutlets.





    Chef's Note & Story

    Sometimes making your own tomato sauce takes only minutes longer than warming a prepared sauce — yet the result is so much more delicious. This succulent meal of chicken, olive-caper tomato sauce, and pasta will satisfy the whole family.
