This elegant Chicken Provençal is a vibrant celebration of Mediterranean flavours, featuring tender chicken breasts simmered in a light, aromatic sauce. The combination of sun-ripened plum tomatoes, briny black olives, and a hint of anchovy creates a deeply savoury base that perfectly complements the lean poultry. It is a sophisticated yet simple dish that brings a touch of Southern French sunshine to your dinner table, making the most of fresh herbs and store-cupboard staples.

As a diabetes-friendly main course, this recipe prioritises lean protein and fresh vegetables while remaining naturally low in sugar. The use of a light flour dusting and a small amount of butter ensures a silky sauce without excessive carbohydrates or fats. Serve this wholesome meal alongside a portion of steamed green beans or a crisp garden salad for a balanced, heart-healthy midweek dinner that the whole family will enjoy.

4 (6- to 230g ) skinless boneless chicken breasts, tenders reserved for another use
60ml de harina común
2 cucharadas de aceite vegetal
1 cucharadita de ajo picado
1 flat anchovy fillet, mashed to a paste

How to make Chicken Breasts Provençal

Core tomatoes and cut a shallow X in bottom of each, then blanch in a medium pot of boiling water 10 seconds. Transfer with a slotted spoon to an ice bath to stop cooking. Peel, seed, and finely chop.

Pat chicken dry and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoons each of salt and pepper, then dredge in flour, shaking off excess.

Heat oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers, then cook chicken, turning once, until golden and just cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes total. Transfer to a platter and keep warm, covered.

Add garlic and anchovy paste to skillet and cook over medium heat, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add wine and bring to a boil, scraping up brown bits. Stir in tomatoes, stock, and olives and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until mixture has thickened into a sauce, 8 to 10 minutes. Whisk in butter and any juices from platter.

Add chicken and simmer until just heated through, about 1 minute. Serve sprinkled with basil.
