Ingredients

4 chicken breasts, skin on

1 teaspoon sea salt

2 tablespoon olive oil

1 cup green or red grapes

1/2 cup Kalamata olives, pitted

150 millilitre dry white wine

150 millilitre chicken or vegetable stock

1 teaspoon brown sugar

2 tablespoon rosemary sprigs

salt and pepper, to season

Method

1.Preheat oven to 180°C. Pat the chicken skin dry and salt well.

2.Heat the oil until hot in an ovenproof pan and fry the chicken, skin-side down. Cook until golden and the skin releases from the pan – about 4-5 minutes, then turn.

3.Add the grapes, olives and white wine to the pan and simmer for 1-2 minutes. Add the stock, brown sugar, rosemary and pepper. Cover with a lid or foil and bake for 20-30 minutes. Remove the lid and cook for a further 5-10 minutes until syrup is slightly reduced. Test for seasoning, adding salt and pepper to taste.

4.Serve from the pan, along with a simple salad or steamed greens and mash.
