This meal was simply delicious and easy to prepare. I had to omit the black olives, capers and pine nuts only because I didn't have any. Even with those ingredients missing this dish was wonderful. All three teenagers had seconds and DD claimed the little bit of leftovers for her lunch tomorrow. I used fresh linguini and grilled the chicken breasts on the grill and added them at the end.Great dish and will be making this one often. Thank you for posting.

I would give this recipe 10 stars if I could....what great flavors! What a nice presentation as well, lots of great color in the dish. I did find, however, that 10 minutes was a litle too long to roast the pine nuts. I checked them after 5 minutes and they were pretty brown - any more and I think they would have burned. I only had 3 chix breasts so we took the left over sauce and mixed it with some left over pasta and will have it as a side dish with some grilled fish tomorow night. This dish is fantastic and could very well be served without the chix. Thanks for posting!
