Greek Chicken with Olives

Preparation time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 15 minutes
Ingredients (5 servings)
1 (2 or 3−pound) cut up chicken
3 cups chopped tomatoes (fresh or canned)
5 chopped cloves garlic
3 chopped yellow onions
1 (6 ounce) jar green stuffed olives (or 3/4 cup salad olives)
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon dried oregano (or 2 tablespoons chopped fresh)
1 cup dry red wine
Salt and Black pepper to taste

Preparation
Brown chicken in olive oil. Remove the chicken and sauté onions and garlic until tender. Add olives and tomatoes and sauté until tomatoes (if fresh) are soft. Add chicken, pepper, oregano, and wine. Cover and simmer about 30 minutes or until tender. Taste for salt preference, as the olives are inherently salty.
