Chicken with Parmesan crumbs

Ingredients

  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 2 tbsp polenta
  • 2 tbsp freshly grated parmesan
  • 1 tsp chopped fresh thyme
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2-3 tbsp black olive tapenade
  • 3 halved large vine-ripened tomatoes

Directions

  1. Mix together the polenta, Parmesan,chopped fresh thyme and olive oil.
  2. Skin the chicken breasts, spread with the black olive tapenade, then put them in a baking dish on a bed of thyme sprigs together with the tomatoes. Pat crumbs on chicken and tomatoes, drizzle with the olive oil.
  3. Roast the chicken breasts in a baking dish, uncovered, for 30-35 minutes in a preheated oven (190C/gas 5/fan oven 170C). To check if they are done, prod the chicken with your finger - if it's still a bit soft, give it a bit longer.
  4. Serve with salad and crusty bread.
