   5                    skinless boneless chicken breasts -- halved
                        dry white wine -- for marinade
   1      pound         mushrooms -- sliced
  12                    pitted green olives -- chopped
   1      clove         garlic -- chopped
     3/4  stick         butter
     1/4  cup           heavy cream
                        salt and freshly ground pepper
                        chopped fresh parsley
                        sauteed cherry tomatoes

     Marinate chicken in enough white wine to cover, at least 2 hours. In a large skillet saute mushrooms and garlic in butter until lightly browned, add olives and heavy cream. Cook the mixture over moderately high heat, stirring until cream is absorbed. Arrange chicken breasts over in a buttered shallow baking dish large enough to hold them in one layer. Spread the mushroom mixture over the breasts, drizzle on a little of the wine. Cover the dish with a buttered of wax paper and foil. Bake in preheated 350° oven for 15-20 minutes until cooked through. Transfer chicken to a heated platter and garnish with chopped parsley and cherry tomatoes.
