Balsamic Chicken with Olives and Walnuts

I tried this tonight.  I left out the olives, and forgot the walnuts as well.  I still thought it was tasty, and will prepare it again when I'm not in such a rush.

Interesting flavor combination. Really enjoyed the olives (found them at New Seasons). I think I'd use a tablespoon of brown sugar for just a little more sweetness or maybe toss in a few golden raisins. The chicken was very moist and tender. We had these with pan seared polenta slices and steamed broccoli.

We really enjoyed this. I browned the chicken well and the sauce had a real depth of flavor. Love the olive and shallots. It all comes together nicely.

Delicious!! Cooked until reduced sauce and used Kalamata olives instead (it's what I had in the fridge). Very flavorful!! Will definitely make again!

One addition made this dish great:sauteed diced pancetta until crisp, removed the pancetta and cooked the chicken in the rendered fat. Added the pancetta to the chicken at the end with the olives and nuts.

yum, first recipe that I have saved to make again

Great flavor! I substituted sliced chicken breasts. Just have to be careful not to overcook the lean meat. Used Gaeta olives I had in the fridge. Also used half shallots and half onions. Just what I had on hand. The whole family loved this and I will definitely make again. Served with grilled asparagus and biscuits smeared with goat cheese.

I think this recipe could have used a more flavor. I used castelvetrano olives from a jar, and later saw them at the olive deli market at Whole Foods, perhaps those would have had more flavor. I used 25 year aged balsamic, but even that did not give this dish enough flavor.

This was delicious and easy to prepare. I had never heard of castelvetrano olives but boy are they yummy. They are not very salty and have a smooth, mellow flavor. I would recommend trying to find them. Regular green olives are not the same. The whole family liked this and I will definitely make this meal again.

This is a good and simple recipe, the only thing I did was coat the chicken in flour and made more sauce, also added some bacon for the salty sweet aspect.

This recipe was fabulous! I substituted boneless chicken breasts and green olives from the deli. I cut the quantity of chicken in half, but not the sauce ingredients. We had leftovers served room temperature with a tossed salad the next day. Two great meals in one.

i used regular green olives rinsed in the sink. excellent!

This is fantastic and so easy to prepare!
