Chicken Fricassee

1/4 cup all-purpose flour
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
cooking spray
5 garlic cloves, finely chopped (about 2 tablespoons)
1 1/2 cups dry white wine
1 1/2 cups diced plum tomato
1/4 cup green olives, chopped
3 tablespoons chopped fresh or 1 tablespoon dried basil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh or 1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 tablespoon crushed red pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

1. Rinse chicken and pat dry. Place the flour in a shallow dish. Dredge chicken in flour.
2. Coat a large Dutch oven with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, and cook for 5 minutes, browning chicken on all sides. Remove chicken from pan. Add chopped garlic, and sauté for 2 minutes or until lightly browned. Stir in the wine, scraping pan to loosen browned bits. Add tomato and next 7 ingredients (tomato through pepper); stir well. Return chicken to pan. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 45 minutes or until chicken is tender.

Serve with mashed potatoes and blanched brocollini sauteed in garlic.
