About Chicken puttanesca

Chicken Puttanesca is a flavorful Italian-inspired dish that combines tender, pan-seared chicken with a piquant tomato-based sauce. Popular in Mediterranean cuisine, the sauce features bold ingredients like olives, capers, garlic, anchovies, and fresh herbs, layered with crushed tomatoes for a bright, tangy profile. Served atop the protein-rich chicken, this dish offers a balance of lean meat and heart-healthy fats from olive oil and the olives. The high fiber content from the tomatoes and capers supports digestion, while the anchovies provide a dose of omega-3 fatty acids. However, the dish is moderately high in sodium due to the briny elements, so portion control is important. Chicken Puttanesca pairs beautifully with whole-grain pasta or steamed vegetables for a wholesome, nutrient-packed meal that celebrates the robust flavors of Mediterranean cuisine.
