Method

Heat 3 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large frying pan. Season the chicken all over and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden. Add the tomatoes and garlic to the pan. Cook for 10-15 minutes, squashing the tomatoes down with the back of a spoon until they are thick and sticky and have lost all their moisture.

Pour in the vinegar and leave it to bubble for 10-15 minutes until the liquid has almost evaporated. Pour in the stock and cook for a further 15 minutes or so until reduced by half. Stir in the remaining olive oil and the parsley. Spoon onto serving plates and add a generous handful of mixed salad leaves to serve.
