Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Split the chicken in half, slicing only through the backbone and removing it, or ask your butcher to do this.
- In a small bowl, combine the lemon zest, garlic, fennel seeds and parsley with one teaspoon of salt, a quarter teaspoon of freshly ground pepper and two tablespoons olive oil.
- Rub three-quarters of the resulting paste evenly under the skin of the chicken, including the thighs, being careful not to tear the skin. Rub the remaining paste on the underside of the chicken. Squeeze the juice of the lemon quarters on the cut surfaces and save the lemon.
- Choose a baking dish that snugly accommodates the butterflied chicken. Oil the pan lightly and scatter half of the olives, the lemon quarters and the fennel branches (if used) about the pan. Place the chicken skin-side up in the dish with the wing tips tucked under. Brush lightly with oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste and scatter the remaining olives over the chicken.
- Place the chicken, uncovered, on the middle rack of the oven.
- Roast the chicken, basting every 15 minutes, until it is golden brown and the joints move freely. The chicken is done when the internal temperature reads 170 degrees, about one hour.

CHICKEN WITH TOMATOES, OLIVES AND FENNEL
Easy dinner to make ahead and just reheat, but also a quick put together meal. But using good Greek olives and fennel are a must for this dish. Now, I like to use bone in/skin on thighs and breasts for this to get a good color for this dish. I have also used chicken quarters as well cut up which is an option. And if you don't like fennel, try cooking or baking it, it is a whole different flavor. Perfect simple food. I serve this with a good Pinot Noir, a simple spinach salad with a lemon vinaigrette and some grilled pita bread.

Steps:
- Chicken -- In a large saute pan (I prefer cast iron or stainless, NOT non-stick), add the olive oil and bring to medium heat. Add the chicken and brown all sides until golden brown. Remove to a plate, with a paper towel to drain.
- Vegetables -- In the same pan, add the fennel, onion and garlic and cook until lightly brown. Add the white wine, tomatoes, fennel fronds, salt and pepper and bring to a boil.
- Chicken -- Add the chicken back in to the pan, reduce to a simmer, and cook until the chicken is tender. It should take about 30 minutes. Add the olives right at the end just to heat through.
- Serve -- Serve the dish family style with some toasted or grilled pita, your favorite salad and fresh lemon wedges. Just squeeze the lemon wedge on each serving for a great taste.
