Preparation

  • In a very large skillet over medium-high heat, add a drizzle of olive oil and add half of the chicken. Sear 2 to 3 minutes per side for colour. Season with salt and pepper generously. Add oil as needed. Repeat with the rest of the chicken and set aside on a plate.
  • Add onion and garlic followed by a thin stream of olive oil. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring.
  • Deglaze with the beer and scrape the bottom to get all the flavours. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring.
  • Add the cream, olives, juice and lemon zest, fresh thyme, season with salt and pepper then mix.
  • Return the chicken to the pan, mix and continue cooking for 4 to 5 minutes to finish cooking the chicken.
