Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large deep skillet over medium-high heat.
Season the chicken lightly with salt and pepper; cook until cooked through,
5 to 6 minutes per side (if using thighs, 12 to 14 minutes per side).
Transfer to a plate; cover and keep warm.
Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil, green onions and garlic to same skillet.

simmer until slightly thickened, about 8 minutes. Season with salt and
pepper. Return chicken to skillet and coat with sauce.

Description:
"Sweet tomatoes and pungent capers balance the mild flavor of chicken.
Rinsing the capers after theyre drained gets rid of excess salt."
