CHICKEN BREASTS WITH TOMATOES AND CAPERS
This recipe was originally developed by Pierre Franey in 1991 for the 60-Minute Gourmet column, a weekly feature dedicated to Times-worthy dishes that were easy, quick and inexpensive. This recipe fit the bill perfectly, and it still does. Just sauté the chicken breasts until they are lightly browned. Then add shallots and garlic, tarragon, tomatoes, vinegar, capers, white wine and tomato paste. Stir well and cook for about 9 minutes more. That's it.

Steps:
- Brown the chicken pieces in the butter, turning each piece to color evenly. When browned, season to taste with salt and pepper and add 1/2 to 3/4 cup white wine. Reduce heat and continue cooking until chicken is tender. You may cover the pan during part of the cooking time, which speeds the process, or cook uncovered. Any additional flavorings that you choose may be added during the cooking and the chicken pieces should be turned over once or twice to bathe them thoroughly in the flavorings and juices. When the chicken is tender and cooked, remove it to a hot platter. Rinse the pan with a little additional wine and let it cook down with the juices for a few minutes. Pour pan juices over the chicken and garnish with a little parsley or chives.
- Drink the same wine you used in the cooking: Pouilly Fuissé, Meursault, or White Pinot from California.
LEMON AND GARLIC CHICKEN WITH CHERRY TOMATOES
This is a summery dish to make in the middle of a cold winter (or early spring), but you can find decent cherry tomatoes even now, from Florida or from Mexico. I marinate the breasts in lemon juice, olive oil, garlic and rosemary before I pound them. This makes them very flavorful, a great savory contrast to the sweet tomato topping.

Steps:
- Stir together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, rosemary, and salt and pepper in a large bowl. Cut each chicken breast into 2 equal pieces (3 if they weigh 12 ounces or more) and place in the bowl. Stir together and refrigerate 15 to 30 minutes.
- Remove chicken from marinade and pat dry with paper towels (discard marinade). Place two sheets of plastic wrap (1 large sheet if you have extra-wide wrap) on your work surface, overlapping slightly, to make 1 wide sheet, and brush lightly with olive oil. Place a piece of chicken in the middle of plastic sheet and brush lightly with oil. Cover the chicken with another wide layer of plastic wrap. Working from the center to the outside, pound chicken breast with the flat side of a meat tenderizer until about 1/4 inch thick. (Don't pound too hard or you'll tear the meat. If that happens it won't be the end of the world, you'll just have a few pieces to cook.) Repeat with the remaining chicken breast pieces.
- Season the pounded chicken breasts with salt and pepper on one side only. Dredge lightly in the flour (you will not use all of it) and tap the breasts to remove excess.
- Turn oven on low. Heat a wide, heavy skillet over high heat and add oil. When oil is hot, place one or two pieces of chicken in the pan - however many will fit without crowding. Cook for 1 1/2 minutes, until bottom is browned in spots. Turn over and brown other side, about 1 1/2 minutes. (Do not overcook or chicken will be dry.) Transfer to a platter or sheet pan and keep warm in the oven. If there is more than a tablespoon of fat in the pan, pour some off into a jar or bowl.
- Turn heat on burner down to medium-high. Add wine to pan and stir with a wooden spoon to deglaze. Add cherry tomatoes and cook, stirring often or tossing in the pan, until they begin to shrivel and burst. Add sugar and salt and pepper to taste and continue to cook, tossing the tomatoes in the pan and stirring often, for 5 to 10 minutes, until tomatoes have collapsed but are still intact. Top chicken breasts with the tomatoes, sprinkle with parsley and with Parmesan if using, and serve.

SAUTéED CHICKEN WITH GREEN OLIVES AND WHITE WINE
In 2004, Mark Bittman introduced this recipe to Times readers as part of a spirited argument for chicken thighs over breasts. That argument reaches peak awesomeness here, with the chicken browned and slightly braised, with olives and walnuts, and a slight acid zing from the wine and lemon.

Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, have all of your ingredients prepped and measured. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling.
- Use High-Quality Ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your dish will taste. Look for fresh, seasonal produce and high-quality cuts of meat.
- Don't Crowd the Pan: When sautéing, it's important to not overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly and will make it more likely to steam rather than brown.
- Be Patient: Sautéing takes time. Don't rush the process or you'll end up with undercooked chicken. Be patient and let the chicken cook until it's golden brown and cooked through.
- Season to Taste: Be sure to season your chicken with salt and pepper before cooking. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika, to taste.
- Use a Good Quality White Wine: The white wine you use in this recipe will impart flavor to the dish, so be sure to choose a good quality wine that you enjoy drinking.
- Serve Immediately: Sautéed chicken with white wine and tomatoes is best served immediately, while it's still hot and juicy.
Conclusion:
This sautéed chicken with white wine and tomatoes is a quick, easy, and delicious weeknight meal. It's also a great way to use up leftover chicken. Serve it over rice, pasta, or mashed potatoes, and you've got a complete meal that the whole family will enjoy.
