Artichoke Heart Chicken image

A dish my husband made for me and I never get sick of it! Can easily be turned into a vegetarian dish by omitting the chicken. However, if you decide not to include the chicken I would reduce the cooking time. I just go by the tomatoes appearance (withered). EDIT: If you are using jarred marinated artichokes, do not add anymore oil. It seems to be too oily that way. I also add sliced mushrooms to this dish for the vegetarian version.

Time 1h10m

Yield 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/8 cup olive oil (see note below)
2 cups cherry tomatoes
3 tablespoons oregano
2 cups rice
2 -4 cups artichoke hearts (The marinated ones found in jars are the ones we use! Adding some of the juice helps to add flavour )
1 (125 ml) jar capers
4 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 teaspoons margarine, 1/2 teaspoon margerine per chicken
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • *The jars of artichokes we buy are quite oily so I omit all the oil and just add some of the liquid from the artichokes.
  • **1 tablespoon of balsamic vinegar per chicken. If you are making this vegetarian, just estimate how many chickens you would have put in the dish. I love the stuff so I heap it inches Same goes if you omit a piece of chicken.
  • Preheat the oven to 425°F.
  • In a flat pan (I use a roasting pan) pour in olive oil to coat.
  • Layer the following: chicken, cherry/grape tomatoes, artichokes, and capers.
  • Add margerine and balsamic vinegar on pieces of chicken (or right onto the other ingredients, whichever you prefer).
  • Sprinkle salt, pepper and oregano over entire dish.
  • Gently mix the ingredients until everything is combined (leaving the chickens in place).
  • Put in the oven with no lid and cook for 45 minutes to 1 hour (making sure the chicken is cooked through).
  • In remaining 20 minutes begin to cook rice.
  • Serve over rice (or pasta, I find it great too!) and enjoy.

I'm not a big fan of artichokes, but I really enjoyed this dish. The chicken was moist and flavorful.

The artichoke hearts were a bit too salty for my taste, but the chicken was cooked perfectly.
