Directions:

  1. Begin by heating the oil in the frying pan until it's very hot.
  2. Wipe the chicken breasts with paper towel, then season them with salt and pepper.
  3. Saute them in the hot oil over a medium heat until they are a rich golden colour n both sides.
  4. This will take 5 or 6 minutes.
  5. Transfer the chicken to a plate and add the garlic and chilli to the pan and fry these briefly for about 30 seconds.
  6. After that, add the tomatoes, tomato puree, olives, capers, chopped basil and some seasoning.
  7. Stir everything well, bringing it up to a gentle simmer, then return the chicken breasts to the pan, skin side up, pushing them well down into the sauce and basting a little over the top.
  8. Simmer for 40 to 45 minutes, uncovered, until the chicken has cooked and the sauce has reduced and thickened.
  9. About 15 minutes before the end of the cooking time, put a large pan of salted water on to heat and bring it up to the boil.
