Roast Chicken With Tomato-Olive Sauce image

I adopted this recipe. For my trial run of the recipe, I prepared the chicken using the roasting method in Recipe #67470. It was an incredibly moist and flavorful bird. The Tomato-Olive sauce is bright with fresh flavors and the perfect salty compliment. This is simple and fabulous. The recipe can be done with grilled breasts or thighs as well. Recipe from Patricia Wells.
