1
Prepare the chicken

Season the chicken thighs with salt and black pepper on both sides.

2
Prepare the vegetables

Roughly chop the olives. Chop the tomatoes. Peel and finely chop the onion. Peel and mince the garlic cloves.

3
Brown the chicken

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken thighs and brown them on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to a plate.

4
Sauté the vegetables

Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in the same skillet. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté for 3-4 minutes or until the onion is softened.

Add liquids and seasonings

Return the chicken to the skillet with the vegetables. Add the chopped tomatoes, olives, chicken broth, thyme, rosemary, and the remaining salt and black pepper. Stir to combine.

6
Simmer and add lemon

Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce heat to low and let it cook, covered, for 30-35 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and tender. Zest and juice the lemon, then add the zest and juice to the skillet. Stir to combine.

Serve

Serve the Chicken with Olives hot over rice, pasta, or with crusty bread to soak up the flavorful sauce.
