Ingredients

    8 skinless, boneless chicken thighs
    1/2 tsp salt
    1/4 tsp black pepper (I prefer fresh ground)
    1 tsp EVOO
    1 garlic clove, minced
    1/4 C chopped, pitted black kalamata olives
    2 tsp capers, rinsed & drained
    1 can (14.5 ounce) can, no-salt added diced tomatoes, undrained (2.5 cups)
    Crushed Red Pepper Flakes (dash, or to taste)

Directions

1) Sprinkle chicken with salt & pepper. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet, over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook 4 minutes per side. Remove chicken from the pan & keep warm.

2) Add garlic to the pan; saute 30 seconds. Add remaining ingredients; scrape pan to loosen browned bits. Return chicken & accumulated juice to pan. Reduce heat & simmer 5 minutes or until chicken is done.
