Quick crispy chicken with tomatoes & asparagus

This is a really quick and simple meal that's perfect for a midweek supper. I've used olives to add a bit of saltiness and extra flavour, but feel free to throw in whatever you've got in the cupboard that'll do the same job – anchovies or sun-dried tomatoes would work well.
