Step 1
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering, about 1 minute.

Pat chicken dry, season with salt and pepper, then sear 3 minutes per side without moving until golden.
Step 3
Remove chicken to a plate. Add onion and garlic to the skillet, stir for 60 seconds until fragrant.
Step 4
Pour in wine, scrape up browned bits, then add crushed tomatoes, oregano, and olives.
