Recipe by Bergy

I have made this recipe after posting it and it is delicious - I have modified it to some degree , I used boneless skinless breasts and pounded them to apprx. 1/2" thickness then placed them over the mounded dressing. Don't over cook them - 30 minutes was enough. I served them with Roasted Brussels Spouts and Baby steamed carrots - excellent! The olives add a special flavor
