Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp olive oil

  • 2 garlic cloves, finely sliced
  • 8 large boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 large rosemary sprig, leaves picked and finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp sundried tomato paste

  • 1 tbsp clear honey
  • 100g pitted green and black olives with herbs
  • 2 tbsp capers

Method

  1. Heat the oil in a large saucepan or flameproof casserole dish on a medium heat, add the onion and cook for a few mins. Add the garlic and cook for 1 min more. Remove the onion and garlic from the pan and set aside on a plate.

  2. Turn up the heat, add the chicken and cook for a few mins each side until golden.
