For a healthy recipe, this was quite good! I did omit the hot pepper sauce and used a whole jalapeno (it was small). Also, I grilled the chicken on my indoor grill, and used light olive oil instead of the basic olive oil. I did add about ten sliced black olives to the pan at the same time I set the chicken back in pan to warm up. Try this one - it's more than decent!
