    2       lg           Boneless chicken breasts
                         - split
                         Salt and pepper -- as desired
      1/2   lb           Mushrooms
    6       tb           Olive oil
      2/3   c            Sherry vinegar

   Heat 1 tablespoon oil in an aluminum skillet or frying pan over high heat

   off fat. Reduce heat to medium, pour in vinegar and dissolve the tomato
   paste in it. Replace chicken in skillet, skin side up. Cover and cook 3

   is cooking, heat 1 teaspoon oil in another frying pan and cook the
   mushrooms about 3-to-4 minutes. Arrange chicken and mushrooms on platter.
   Whisk in the rest of the olive oil; mix in parsley. Pour juices that have
   collected on the platter into sauce. Pour sauce over chicken and mushrooms;
   serve immediately.
