Chicken with Lemon Olives Sauce

Hello everybody.

Hot and dusty Saturday,many errands and shopping today,I even started cooking very late!

last night I took out my cookbook to search for something new and easy to do,sometimes you feel you’re bored from all the things you cook and need a change or twist,I found this old recipe that I’ve never tried but as usual I always write down anything  I feel will taste good,you can tell from the ingredients sometimes whether they fit together or not.

Honestly it was a success,I have my dear friend Reham as a witness,you can ask her 🙂

It’s a very simple chicken with lemon sauce and olives and I made some sauteed veggies on the side,really delicious.

 

Ingredients and method:

* boneless pounded chicken breasts.

* bread crumbs and flour seasoned with salt,pepper and oregano.

* lemon slices and lemon juice.

* half cup pitted green olives.

* some butter and olive oil.

* coat chicken with mixed flour and crumbs.

*saute them in olive oil and butter on both sides till almost done.

* remove from pan,then add some more flour and butter ( about 2 tablespoons) in the same pan you sauteed the chicken,add lemon slices and juice (about half of a lemon) and the pitted olives.

*add one cup of hot water and stir well till sauce is creamy and homogeneous.

* before serving add sauce to chicken breasts and simmer for 10-15 minutes

* as for veggies I sliced them,added some olive oil,salt,pepper and left them to simmer till done.

Hope you try it and taste how good it is 🙂
