Chicken Puttanesca is a vibrant and flavorful dish hailing from Italy. It's made with succulent chicken thighs simmered in a savory sauce of ripe tomatoes, garlic, and olives, with a kick of red pepper flakes that brings out a delightful depth of flavor. This dish is often accompanied by capers, adding a tangy punch that perfectly complements the richness of the chicken. Not only is it delicious, but it's also packed with protein and heart-healthy fats from the olives. While it’s indulgent with its rich sauce, it can be made lighter by serving it with whole-grain pasta or a fresh salad. Chicken Puttanesca is a true celebration of Italian cuisine!
