In this lovely Mediterranean-style dish, I like to use chicken thighs which have a firm texture and strong flavour. Serve with a green salad.

Ingredients

2 cups cooked penne pasta
1 tbsp olive oil
3 deboned chicken thighs, each cut into 4 pieces
1/2 small brown onion, chopped
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 tsp chicken stock powder, optional
1 cup Italian-style tomato sauce
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
20 kalamata olives
About 60g feta cheese, cubed
2 tbsp chopped parsley
1/2 clove garlic, finely chopped

Preparation

Heat the oil in a wok or medium, non-stick frypan and brown the chicken pieces for 6-8 minutes. Transfer the chicken (without the fat) to a plate and cover with foil.

Add the onion to the wok and stir-fry on medium heat without browning for about 3 minutes. Add the wine and stock, stir briefly then bring to the boil. Add the tomato, bring back to the boil and season with salt and pepper. Simmer for 2 minutes then add the cooked penne.

Return the chicken to pan with the olives, parsley and garlic and reheat gently for a few minutes. Scatter the fetta cubes on top and serve.
