Delicious! I made it as written and thought it turned out so wonderful. The only thing I would do differently is that, next time I will double the sauce (so we have more to flavor the chicken). Made for the Spain & Portugal tag game for July. Thanks for sharing your recipe, Thymestudio.

Made this recipe as written, & it turned out great ~ A WONDERFUL TASTING CHICKEN, & something I'll be making again! The smoked paprika, prosciutto & green chilies made a great combo, I thought! Thanks for a keeper of a recipe! [Tagged, made & reviewed while in Spain with the ZWT5]

A great recipe that can be made up very easily, but looks like it required a lot of time. I don't have prosciutto on hand as a rule, but bacon works just fine....it does not taste quite the same as the prosciutto, but good none the less. Thanks for a great recipe

Reviewed for ZWT3 (Zingo). Very easy to make, and quite tasty. I used chicken thighs instead of breast tenders, and increased the garlic (like I always do!) A good throw-together recipe (you can never have enough of those ....)

What a great recipe! I did make a change;I cut up a whole chicken, removed the skin and put all the ingredients in my Slow cooker for 5 hours on high. I didn't need the oil, but doubled up the olives.You have to try this; it's amazing! I made this for WT3. Thanks for posting this keeper. Rita
