Greek-Style Chicken

The inspiration for tonight’s dinner came from this tilapia dish that Andy loves. In addition to the tomatoes and olives, I decided to add white beans to give the dish a creamy taste and texture. I used chicken tenders because they cook quickly, but chicken breasts would work equally as well. Our side dish was risotto, but grits are another option. Enjoy!
