A great simple dish with gorgeous Mediterranean flavours. Serve with roasted or steamed vegetables and roasted potatoes or wedges. 

Ingredients:
Makes 4 servings

• handful of caper berries or 1 1/2 tbsp capers
• 1 onion, sliced
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 1 large tin chopped tomatoes (400g)

Directions:
Fillet the chicken breasts lengthwise. Heat 1/2 tbsp oil in a pan. Season the chicken with salt and pepper, then brown each side for about 4-5 minutes. You can do a few at a time if needed. Put aside.
