You cannot beat this 16-minute skillet dinner featuring the simple sun-drenched flavors of the Mediterranean. Using chicken cutlets makes this a really quick-cooking recipe and the addition of briny olives, rich artichokes, herby oregano and tangy lemon make this ideal served over rice to soak up the delicious juices. These bright family-friendly flavors work in all seasons for lunch or dinner. You can also serve this chicken over angel hair pasta. Add some wilted spinach to amp the veggies and complete the plate. If you have veal cutlets on hand, try them in this dish in place of the chicken.
