Ingredients
Directions
6- 100g chicken breasts2 teaspoons salt, plus more to taste1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste2 grissini, crushed, for dredging3 tablespoons water2 tbsp dried minced onions3 garlic cloves, finely chopped1 1/2 cup low- sodium chicken broth 1 ( 28-ounce) can diced tomatoes with juice3 tablespoons drained capers1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano leaves1/4 cup coarsely chopped fresh basil leaves
Sprinkle the chicken pieces with 1 teaspoon of each salt and pepper. Dredge the chicken pieces in the crushed grissini to coat lightly.
In a large heavy saute pan, heat the 3 tbsp water over a medium-high flame. Add the chicken pieces to the pan and saute just until brown,
about 5 minutes per side. Add more water as it evaporates. If all the chicken does not fit in the pan, saute it in 2 batches. Transfer the chicken to
a plate and set aside. Add the onion and garlic to the same pan and saute over medium heat about 5
minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the broth and simmer until reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes with their juice, capers and oregano. Return the chicken pieces to the pan and turn them to coat in the sauce. Bring the sauce to a simmer.
Continue simmering over medium-low heat until the chicken is just cooked through.
Using tongs, transfer the chicken to a platter. If necessary, boil the sauce until it thickens slightly, about 3 minutes. Spoon off any excess fat
from atop the sauce. Spoon the sauce over the chicken, then sprinkle with the basil and serve.
This recipe is also excellent in a slow cooker on low.
