This Chicken Amore is a comforting yet elegant dinner that brings the warmth of the Mediterranean to your table. Tender chicken breasts are dredged in flour and seared until golden, then simmered in a rich, aromatic sauce made with white wine, chicken broth, and fresh herbs. Earthy mushrooms and briny black olives add depth and texture, while a hint of red-pepper seasoning provides a gentle kick. Garnished with fresh parsley, this dish is perfect for weeknight dinners or special occasions. It’s flavorful, relatively quick to prepare, and pairs beautifully with crusty bread or a side of rice.

Directions
-
Pat chicken breasts dry and sprinkle with pepper. Dredge lightly in flour, shaking off excess.
-
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken breasts and cook until golden brown on both sides, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
-
In the same skillet, add garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add mushrooms and cook until softened and liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes.
-
Pour in white wine and chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Stir in thyme and red-pepper seasoning.
-
Return chicken to the skillet. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
-
Stir in black olives and cook for another 2-3 minutes to heat through. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
