Add diced tomatoes (not drained), red peppers, white wine, and second part of thyme. Simmer for ~10 minutes.
Add olives and parsley. Return chicken to pan. Lower heat and cover and simmer until chicken is cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes.
While chicken is finishing, heat a skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat for sauteed spinach. Add cooking oil and then spinach to heated oil with a sprinkle of salt. As soon as spinach starts to wilt, toss in garlic. Once softened, finish with lemon juice and remove from heat.
Finish chicken saute with lemon juice and season to taste with salt and pepper. Enjoy with sauteed spinach.
