This recipe is quick and easy and packed with flavor. You'll love the combination of colors from the artichoke and sun-dried tomato mixed in with the chicken. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil |
4 boned skinned chicken breast halves (8 oz. each) |
2 large shallots, minced |
3 garlic cloves, minced |
1/2 cup reduced-sodium chicken stock |
8 ounces marinated artichoke hearts, halved |
1/4 cup sliced oil-marinated sun-dried tomatoes |
about 1/2 tsp. salt |
about 1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper |
1/4 cup sliced basil |
1/4 cup freshly and finely shredded parmesan |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375°. Heat olive oil in a large, heavy ovenproof frying pan (not nonstick) over high heat until oil is hot but not smoking. Add chicken breasts, top side down, and cook until golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn chicken over.
2. Add shallots and garlic to pan with chicken, stirring occasionally so garlic doesn't burn, until shallots are soft and translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Add chicken stock, artichoke hearts, sun-dried tomatoes, 1/2 tsp. salt, and 1/4 tsp. pepper and cook until mixture begins to boil, about 1 minute.
3. Cover pan and put in oven. Bake 14 to 16 minutes, or until chicken is just cooked through (cut to check). Transfer chicken to a plate.
4. Season artichoke heart-sun-dried tomato-stock mixture with salt and pepper to taste. Divide vegetables among 4 rimmed plates or shallow pasta bowls, top each with a piece of chicken, and spoon sauce over all. Garnish with sliced basil and parmesan.
