Lidia's Chicken with Artichokes image

This delicious recipe for chicken with artichokes is from the cookbook "Lidia's Italy" by Lidia Bastianich. It'll make for the perfect main to serve at your next soirée.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Chicken

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 pounds small artichokes
Juice of 1 lemon
1 whole chicken, about 4 pounds, rinsed and patted dry, cut into 10 to 12 pieces
1 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
5 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
1/4 teaspoon peperoncino flakes, or to taste
1 cup dry white wine
1 28-ounce can canned Italian plum tomatoes, preferably San Marzano, crushed by hand
1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Trim pointy tips from artichokes and cut in half or in wedges, about 1 1/2 inches wide. Fill a bowl with water, and add lemon juice. Place artichokes in water until ready to use.
  • Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a 6-to-7-quart heavy-bottomed, Dutch-oven over medium-high heat. Season chicken with salt and add to the pot without crowding, working in batches. Cook chicken, turning once, until browned, 3 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to a platter or bowl; set aside. Drain any fat that has accumulated in the pot.
  • Add remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil to the Dutch-oven. When oil is hot, add garlic and cook until sizzling, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove artichokes from water and add directly to the pot; season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and peperoncino. Cook, stirring often, until dry and beginning to brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Add wine and cook over high heat, stirring, until wine is almost evaporated, about 3 minutes.
  • Add tomatoes to the Dutch oven along with 3 cups water. Cover and bring to a boil, adjusting heat as necessary to maintain a steady boil. Cook sauce for 15 minutes.
  • Return chicken to the Dutch oven and submerge in the sauce. Cover and continue cooking until chicken is just cooked through, artichokes are tender, and sauce has evaporated slightly, about 45 minutes. Uncover and continue cooking until sauce has thickened, about 15 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately.

SHEET-PAN CHICKEN WITH ARTICHOKES AND HERBS



Sheet-Pan Chicken With Artichokes and Herbs image

This weeknight sheet-pan dinner takes inspiration from porchetta, the classic Italian pork roast that's scented with fennel and herbs. Here, a fragrant spice rub of ground fennel, garlic, rosemary and sage is placed onto chicken thighs, instantly elevating plain chicken with minimal effort. Canned artichokes are a versatile and time-saving pantry staple, commonly tossed into salads but here, they are fantastic roasted. The juicy chicken thighs create a bright pan sauce mixed with briny olives and lemon juice. Leftovers can be chopped and tossed with mayonnaise for a fantastic chicken salad the next day.

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 large fennel bulbs (about 3 pounds), trimmed, halved lengthwise and cut into 1/2-inch-thick wedges
2 (14-ounce) cans whole artichoke hearts in water, drained and halved lengthwise
8 ounces cherry tomatoes
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and pepper
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons ground fennel
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh sage
8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (about 3 pounds)
1/2 cup pitted green olives, chopped
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon red-pepper flakes (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. On a rimmed baking sheet, combine fennel wedges, artichokes, tomatoes and 3 tablespoons oil. Season with salt and pepper and toss to evenly coat. Spread in an even layer.
  • In a small bowl, combine garlic, ground fennel, rosemary, sage and the remaining 3 tablespoons oil. Season chicken all over with salt and pepper, then rub with spice mixture. Arrange the chicken on top of the vegetables skin-side up.
  • Roast until vegetables are tender and chicken is golden and crisp and cooked through, 35 to 40 minutes.
  • Divide chicken and vegetables among plates. Pour pan juices into a small bowl, let settle and then skim off the fat with a spoon. Stir in olives, lemon juice and red-pepper flakes (if using). Spoon sauce over chicken and vegetables. Serve warm.

Tips:

  • To save time, use pre-cooked chicken or rotisserie chicken.
  • If you don't have dry white wine, you can use chicken broth or water.
  • If you don't have artichoke hearts, you can use chopped zucchini or broccoli.
  • To make the dish more flavorful, add a tablespoon of sun-dried tomatoes or roasted red peppers.
  • Serve the chicken and artichokes over rice, pasta, or mashed potatoes.

Conclusion:

This Italian chicken and artichoke dish is a delicious and easy meal that can be prepared in under an hour. The chicken is tender and flavorful, and the artichokes add a unique and tangy flavor. This dish is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. It is sure to please everyone at the table.
