            processor or blender, combine olives, garlic,
          
        
        
          
            parsley, mint, 3 tablespoons water, vinegar,

            mixture is well combined but still chunky.
          
        
        
          
            Scrape mixture into bowl, cover and let sit at

            temperature for 15 minutes before using.)
          
        
        
          Prepare chicken.
        
        
          
            Rinse chicken under
          
        
        
          
            cold running water then pat dry with
          
        
        
          
            paper towels. Place 1 chicken breast in a
          
        
        
          
            plastic bag or between 2 sheets of plastic
          
        
        
          
            wrap. Using a meat mallet or rolling pin,
          
        
        
          
            pound gently to an even ¼-inch thickness.
          
        
        
          
            Repeat with remaining chicken breast(s),
          
        
        
          
            then arrange them on a platter. Brush
          
        
        
          
            chicken on both sides with oil then season
          
        
        
          
            with salt and black pepper.
          
        
        
          Cook.
        
        
          
            Preheat a grill pan on medium-
          
        
        
          
            high. Grill chicken breasts for 4 minutes

            Slice breasts crosswise into 1-inch pieces.
          
        
        
          
            Place chicken on a serving platter or divide
