step 1

Prepare the ingredients

Fill a medium pot (or large for 4 servings) 3/4 of the way up with salted water; cover and heat to boiling on high. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Halve the tomatoes. Quarter and deseed the lemon(s). Peel and roughly chop 2 cloves of garlic (or 4 cloves for 4 servings). Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Place in a bowl. Add the chopped garlic, capers, and as much of the chile peppers as you’d like, depending on how spicy you’d like the dish to be. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
