Braised Chicken with Lemon & Green Olives
Lemons and olives add a Mediterranean flair to this braised chicken. The recipe calls for picholine olives, a green olive from France that is medium in size and somewhat salty. You can substitute another type of green olive, if desired.

My Husband's Favorite
October 25, 2011
We both love this recipe. As with all chicken dishes these days, I cut chicken breasts in half lenghwise into cutlets first. Brown the chicken in butter and olive oil as set aside while I deglaze the pan and make the sauce. Then return the chicken to the pan and simmer for just a few minutes more. The chicken always is tender as a result. I would not use a crock pot for this one.
I like to serve it with angel hair pasta tossed lightly in olive oil and pepper flakes, al dente, swirlled into a nest.
Pros: Quick, Easy, Appearance, Impressive, Will Make Again

This is a recipe that I love to make every single time. The olives and the lemon provide a very nice flavor, very different. Love it!

Very disappointing
March 2, 2011
Just got my slow cooker and thought this would be a good recipe to start with. Identical to one that comes with the All Clad cooker so I was expecting it to come out properly cooked when, in fact, the Chicken was overcooked, no texture. Resulting sauce had an off taste. Would not try this again nor recommend it to anyone else.

Phenomenal!

I make this dish all the time and love it. It's my favorite chicken dish of all time. However, I use 2.5 lbs. of boneless, skinless chicken thighs in place of the 5 lb. chicken. And I use 1/4 c. of Chardonnay instead of Chardonnay reduction...much easier and still wonderful.
