  • 8 ounces Can of Crushed Tomatoes
  • 1 teaspoon Dried Basil
  • 1 teaspoon Dried Rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon Thyme
  • 1 teaspoon Dried Sage
  • 1 teaspoon Dried Marjoram
  • 1 teaspoon White Pepper
  • 1.5 tablespoons Oregano
  • 2 Bay Leaves
  • Juice of Half a Lemon
  • 1/2 cup White Wine(I like Chardonnay)
  • 1 tablespoon Chopped Kalamata Olives
  • 1 cup Crumbled Feta Cheese
  • 1/2 cup Grated Parmesan Cheese

Directions

  1. 1
    Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness of about a half inch.
  2. 2
    Combine the basil, rosemary, thyme, sage, marjoram, and pepper then rub onto the chicken, coating both sides of each piece.
  3. 3
    Heat olive oil in a cast iron pan on medium heat, then add chopped shallots and teaspoon of the oregano. Cook until translucent then add chicken breasts. Let the chicken cook for about 2 minutes then flip to cook the other side for another 2 minutes.
  4. 4
    Add the tomatoes, the bay leaves, the rest of the oregano, lemon juice and wine. Cover pan with lid, turn heat down to a simmer until the chicken is fully cooked, then remove the chicken and transfer to warming dish.
  5. 5
    Continue to simmer tomato sauce until it thickens a little, stirring occasionally, then add the cheeses and olives. Let it simmer for another minute or two. Remove bay leaves.
  6. 6
    Lay chicken over your grain of choice and top with a generous spoonful of the sauce. Serve with a glass of the wine you used for the sauce.
  7. 7
    Save any excess sauce for next time! It's good with shrimp, over pasta or just on toast.
