Preparation steps
Preheat oven to 180°C (approximately 350°F). For the filling, peel garlic and finely chop. Drain olives. Rinse basil, shake dry and pluck off leaves. Dice half of pepper into small cubes. Chop bread coarsely and finely grind in a blender. Mix with olives, garlic, pepper, basil, oil, vinegar and Parmesan. Knead until smooth and season with salt and pepper.
Rinse chicken breasts, pat dry and cut a pocket into each breast lengthwise. Fill with filling mixture and wrap with kitchen twine to secure. Season with salt and pepper and cook in a pan until golden brown with hot oil. Remove from pan and set aside. Rinse fennel, trim, cut into quarters and remove hard stalk. Cut into strips. Place fennel in a buttered baking dish, pour in broth, add chicken breasts and bake for 25-30 minutes.
For the salsa, peel shallots and garlic. Chop finely and saute in a pan with hot oil until translucent. Add tomatoes, season with salt, pepper and oregano and simmer for 15 minutes over medium heat. Dice remaining peppers and mix with salsa. Remove chicken from oven, discard kitchen twine and arrange on plates with fennel. Serve with drizzled salsa.
