Instructions
Heat a large, skillet over medium high heat. When pan is hot add olive oil.
Season chicken breasts generously with salt and pepper. Place in pan, and sear until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes on each side.
Remove chicken and set aside. Add onions and garlic to the pan, and sauté, stirring often, until tender, about 2-3 minutes. Add splashes of the chicken stock as needed to keep the onions from sticking to the pan.
Now add in the lemon, olives, paprika, cumin, and remaining stock. Bring to a boil, and let simmer about 10 minutes.
Add in the chicken, turn the heat to medium low, cover, and let cook until chicken is tender and cooked through, about 30 minutes.
