Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

  1. 2 tablespoons salted butter
  2. 2 tablespoons olive oil
  3. 4 thin-cut chicken breasts (chicken cutlets)
  4. Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  5. 1/2 red onion, diced
  6. 2 cloves garlic, minced
  7. Two 8-ounce jars quartered artichokes, drained
  8. 3/4 cup white wine
  9. 3/4 cup heavy cream
  10. 1 cup grated Parmesan
  11. One 4-ounce jar diced pimientos, drained
  12. 3 cups baby spinach
  13. 1/2 lemon, juiced
  14. Fresh basil leaves, for garnish
  15. Warm bread, for serving

Instructions

  1. Heat the butter and olive oil together in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper, then add them to the skillet. Cook until nicely browned and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Remove to a plate.
  2. Add the onion and garlic to the skillet and stir until slightly softened, about 30 seconds, then add the artichokes and cook, stirring, until the artichokes are hot and the onions are translucent, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour in the wine and stir, then add the cream and more black pepper, if desired, then stir again. Let the sauce come to a simmer, then add the Parmesan and cook for a minute to thicken.
  3. Add the pimientos, spinach and lemon juice, then stir until the spinach has wilted, for a minute or so. Nestle the chicken back into the skillet, spooning a little sauce over the top. Garnish with torn basil leaves and serve with warm bread.

Very good, easy. Served with garlic potatoes. Will make again.

anyone use marinated artichokes?
James Jones
The whole family loved this – even not big artichoke lovers. I chopped the artichokes up a little more, and sliced the chicken before putting back into the pan. Served over bread as suggested. Nice to have such a knock out dish and it comes together very quick and easy.
Greg Gibbs
I made this with some shredded roasted chicken and mixed it together. We used the leftovers as a filling in a calzone with some ricotta and mozzarella. It’s probably one of the best calzones we’ve had.

Turned out great! I subbed all dairy ingredients with non-dairy equivalents due to daughter’s allergies and there were no issues.
Kyle Hernandez
Excellent!! Though definitely not light. Worth every calorie though. Easy to make and straight up delicious. Mise-en-place boom boom you’re done. Excellent over rice.
Andrew White
Followed the direction. it was easy n good. pasta would have been great addition , but I am cutting carbs.
Cody Murphy
This is delicious. Next time I’ll use boneless skinless thighs but the flavor of this dish is great especially the next day. I served over egg noodles. This is going in my rotation for sure!
Alex Davis
I loved the flavor! I skipped the bread to make it low-carb, so it was lacking a little in texture. I will make it again with bread or pasta for sure!
Candice Warren
