A delightful Mediterranean-inspired chicken dish topped with a fresh and flavorful tomato-olive mixture.
Combine the tomatoes, olives, feta, basil, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl. Stir gently to combine and set aside.
Let the topping sit for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Season the chicken cutlets with salt and pepper on both sides.
Pat the chicken dry before seasoning to help the spices adhere better.
Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat and brush it with the remaining olive oil.
Ensure the pan is hot before adding the chicken to achieve a good sear.
Cook the chicken cutlets for 2-3 minutes on each side until fully cooked.
Avoid overcrowding the pan to ensure even cooking.
Transfer the cooked chicken to a serving plate and cover loosely with foil to keep warm.
Resting the chicken allows the juices to redistribute, keeping it moist.
Top each chicken cutlet with the prepared tomato-olive mixture and serve.
Garnish with additional basil leaves for a fresh touch.
