Instructions
Slice each chicken breast horizonally in two.
Season with salt and pepper. Heat the oil and butter in a heavy-bottom skillet. Add the chicken breasts and saute over medium-high heat, turning the pieces often until lightly browned, about 5 minutes.
Add the onions and garlic around the chicken. Cook briefly; add the basil tomatoes, vinegar, capers, wine and tomato paste.
Blend well, bring to a boil, and then cover and simmer for 9 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley and serve over rice or on its own.
