Dinner Tonight: Chicken Breasts In Foil With Tomato, Olives, And Parmesan Recipe

1. 1

   Take two pieces of 18-inch foil and lay one on top of the other. Smear 1/2 of the oil in the middle of the foil. Lay both slices of tomato down side by side in the center and top each one with a chicken breast. Season the chicken with salt and pepper, and then top with the olives, rosemary leaves and Parmesan.

2. 2

   Pull the edges of the aluminum foil up towards the center and seal as tightly as possible so nothing can leak out. Just make sure the top breasts are still laying flat and not jumbled up, or they won't cook correctly.

3. 3

   Heat a large iron skillet over high heat. Add the rest of the oil, swirl around to cover, and then pour most of it out. You just want a small film on the surface. Carefully place the foil packet in the skillet. After about 2 minutes the authors said the aluminum foil should expand like a balloon. Cook for an additional 5 minutes. As I explained above, my packet did not puff up. Either way, it will need a total of around 7-8 minutes in the skillet. Remove and let rest for a minute.

4. 4

   Carefully unfold the aluminum foil and check for doneness, around 160u00b0F. If ready, serve the chicken on top of the tomatoes and pour on the sauce.
