Grilled Chicken Puttanesca For National Olive Day (Sponsored Post)
Who says puttanesca has to be relegated to just pasta?
Loaded with olives, garlic, capers, tomatoes and anchovies, puttanesca is one of my favorite sauces.
It’s not weigh-you-down rich like carbonera. Nor retiring like delicate fresh tomato-basil. Instead, it’s decidedly in your face — with a forceful punch.
So why relegate it to just tossing with pasta? With summer barbecuing season upon us, why not dress up mundane grilled chicken with something more exciting? Yes, puttanesca!
For those following a paleo, gluten-free or no-carb diet, it’s a way to have your puttanesca — and eat it, too.
There’s no time like now to dig into this dish, too, what with June 1 marking National Olive Day.
