Ingredients
• 1 Tbsp olive oil
• 1 lg onion, coarsely chopped

• 1 tsp chopped fresh rosemary or 3/4 tsp dried rosemary, crumbled
• 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into 1" pieces
• 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
• 40 lg pitted kalamata olives, sliced (about 1 1/3 c), MUFA
• 8 oz lg cherry tomatoes, halved, or 2 med tomatoes, cut into 1/2" pieces (about 1 1/2 c)

Directions

1. Warm oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, garlic, and rosemary and cook, stirring often, until tender and just starting to brown, 3 to 4 minutes.
