2 skinless chicken breasts
3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil , plus extra for drizzling
290g jar black kalamata olive in brine, drained
4 anchovy fillets
300g penne
500g runner bean , sides peeled if stringy, thickly sliced on the diagonal

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Vegetable oil cooking spray
1/2 cup pitted Spanish black olives
1/2 cup pitted Spanish green olives
1 bottle (12 ounces) marinated artichokes, drained, and liquid reserved
4 boneless, skinless chicken cutlets (4 ounces each)
1 pound potatoes, peeled and cut into 2-inch-by-1/4-inch wedges
1 pound sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 2-inch-by-1/4-inch wedges
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
1 teaspoon salt, divided
1 pound zucchini, cut into 1/2-inch slices
1/4 cup chopped red onion
1/4 cup white wine
1/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth

Steps:

  • Heat grill. Fold four 18-inch-long pieces of foil in half; unfold and coat inside with cooking spray. Blend olives with 1 tablespoon reserved artichoke liquid in a food processor until paste forms. Place 1 cutlet in center of 1 half of each piece of foil; top each with 1/4 of olive paste. Toss all potatoes with 1/4 cup reserved artichoke liquid, rosemary and 1/2 teaspoon salt; divide potatoes evenly among packets, placing them to side of chicken. Combine artichokes, zucchini, onion and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt; divide evenly among packets, placing them to other side of chicken. Combine wine and broth in a bowl. Fold foil to close and crimp 2 sides of each packet, leaving 1 side open; pour 2 tablespoons broth-wine mixture into each packet. Crimp third side of packets to seal; place on grill; close lid; cook until packets are fully puffed, 12 minutes. Carefully cut foil to open; serve.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use ripe runner beans. If you can't find runner beans, you can substitute green beans or string beans.
  • To make the tapenade, use a food processor or blender to combine the olives, capers, anchovies, garlic, lemon zest, and olive oil. If you don't have a food processor or blender, you can chop the ingredients finely by hand.
  • To make the chicken, season it with salt and pepper, then cook it in a skillet over medium heat until cooked through. You can also grill or bake the chicken.
  • To make the pasta, cook it according to the package directions. Once the pasta is cooked, drain it and rinse it with cold water.
  • To assemble the dish, combine the cooked pasta, chicken, tapenade, runner beans, and cherry tomatoes in a large bowl. Toss to combine.
  • Serve the pasta immediately or store it in the refrigerator for later.

Conclusion:

This tapenade chicken pasta with runner beans is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick and healthy meal. The tapenade adds a flavorful and salty kick to the dish, while the runner beans add a fresh and crunchy texture. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
