Ingredients:
3 lbs. boneless chicken breast – sliced thin
For the Sauce:
1 quart of grape tomatoes or 4-5 vine ripe tomatoes
7 cloves of garlic – crushed & chopped
Handful of fresh sage leaves – chopped
1 red onion – sliced
¼ cup of balsamic vinegar
1 good tsp. of brown sugar
1 tablespoon of capers
¼ cup of red wine
Dashes of sea salt
Dashes of fresh ground black pepper
Olive oil
Heat a griddle with a drizzle of olive oil and place the chicken breast slices on the heated griddle.
While the chicken is grilling prepare the sauce:
Heat a large frying pan with a drizzle of olive oil and add the garlic, onion, fresh sage and capers. While this is sautéing, place the tomatoes in a food processor and give a few good chops. Leave it a bit chunky. Add the tomatoes to the frying pan along with the vinegar and wine. Add the brown sugar. Add the salt and pepper to taste.
As the chicken becomes a beautiful golden color add it to the sauce and continue to simmer on low.
Serve this over rice, your favorite spaghetti or macaroni or just as is with a colorful side salad
This dish has a unique and delicious flavor that will please!
Enjoy with Love and Laughter!
Ciao Bella!

Catherine, this looks so good! I'm another one who rarely uses capers but I love them. I'm definitely going to make this one.
Dieter Moitzi says
Delicious, I'm sure! I love chicken, I love tomato sauces, I love capers, so I'm sure I'm gonna have a try. This really sounds very Italian. And the Balsamic vinegar is something I've discovered recently for preparing food (marinades for salmon and meat I put on the gril in my oven – gives it a tasty, sugary, almost caramelized note). Thanks for sharing, Catherine!

Catherine, I made this for my husband and he devoured it and said he felt like he was eating in a fine Italian restaurant!! Not too bad for an Irish girl from Brooklyn. Thank you for this fabulous recipe, I am going to try more and will keep you posted.
