spicy chicken


i  am always on the hunt for new recipes.  this one has been on the radar for a while now, so i decided to make this for my clients this week.  i had one chicken breast leftover, so i also made it for myself.  so, i can testify, it's delicious!  the original recipe can be found here.  gotta love giada!  it's pretty simple to put together, once you get all your chopping out of the way.  the recipe wants you to make a chili oil, which is very easy to do, but if you don't want to go through that step, i think just adding olive oil and red pepper flakes on their own would be just as delicious.  the ingredients are kalamata olives, green olives, capers, garlic, white wine, and fresh parsley.  the flavor of the chicken had somewhat of a smoky flavor to it, and i can't figure out where it came from.  could of been the green olives i used.  i paired the dish with a side of fiery angel hair pasta which can also be found here.  (thanks again, giada!).  the only thing i did differently with this dish, was use whole wheat angel hair.  give this one a shot everyone, it is awesome.
