Donna Giblins Artichoke Chicken Recipe 4

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. When it shimmers, add onion and garlic, season with salt and freshly ground black pepper, and cook until golden, about 4 minutes. Add chicken and cook, stirring rarely, until well browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Add artichoke hearts and cook until slightly broken down, about 3 minutes.
• Add wine, water, and juice and scrape the bottom of the pan to incorporate any browned bits. Cook until alcohol smell is cooked off and sauce is slightly reduced, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in basil and lemon, and serve.

Steps:

• Squeeze juice from lemon halves into large bowl; add lemon halves. Fill bowl with water. Trim stem of 1 artichoke. Starting at base, bend leaves back and snap off where they break naturally, continuing until all tough outer leaves have been removed. Using small sharp knife, trim outside of base until smooth and no dark green areas remain. Cut artichoke in half lengthwise; cut out any choke. Add to lemon water. Repeat with remaining artichokes.
• Heat oil in heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Working in batches, add chicken to pot and brown well on all sides, about 12 minutes per batch. Transfer chicken to plate. Drain artichokes. Add artichokes and pearl onions to pot and sauté until onions are golden, about 6 minutes. Add vinegar and stir until evaporated, about 3 minutes. Stir in 1/2 cup water, garlic and bay leaves. Arrange chicken atop vegetables. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Cover; simmer until chicken is tender, about 30 minutes. Discard bay leaves.
• Transfer chicken and vegetables to platter. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.

Steps:

• Heat a large, heavy pot over medium-high. Once it's hot, heat the olive oil, then add the chicken. Sear on each side until golden, about 3 minutes per side.
• Add the tomatoes, onions, artichoke hearts and red pepper flakes and give everything a big stir. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer for 20 - 30 minutes, or until the onions are transparent and the chicken is cooked through.
• Shred the chicken with two forks, or skip this step. Serve and top each portion with a few capers.

Steps:

• 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.
• 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.
• 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.

Steps:

• Place chicken, skin side up, in a baking pan. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Distribute onion, artichoke and mushrooms over the top. Combine olive oil, mustard, red wine, red wine vinegar, garlic, dried spices, salt and pepper and pour over the chicken. Bake at 350º for 1 1/2 hours, basting every 1/2 hour.

Steps:

• Trim the artichokes and cut them into halves or wedges, about 1-1/2 inches wide and soak them in water with juice from the lemon.
• Salt the chicken. In a heavy bottom pan brown chicken in oil, but do not cook all of the way through. Remove and place on a dish.
• When the chicken is done put garlic in pan and cook for about two minutes, until sizzling.
• Take the artichoke out of the water and place in pan with the garlic. Stir well and season with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and red pepper flakes.
• Cook for about 5 minutes tossing often. When the artichokes start to turn color add wine and cook until nearly evaporated, about 3 minutes.
• Pour in tomatoes and 3 cups of water. Cover pan, bring to a boil and reduce for a steady simmer for about 15 minutes.
• Return chicken pieces and any liquid on platter to the pan submerging them into the sauce. Cover and return to a simmer again for 40 minutes.
• Check about a quarter way through to make sure there is enough liquid so as not to burn.
• Remove lid and allow sauce to thicken up, simmering for about 15 minutes.

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.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook chicken breast halves until browned on both sides, 5 to 8 minutes per side. Pour in chicken stock, artichoke hearts, pearl onions, thyme, salt, and black pepper and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until stock is reduced and onions and artichokes are tender, about 45 minutes; turn chicken breasts over in the skillet after 20 minutes.
• Place a goat cheese slice on each chicken breast; cover skillet and let goat cheese melt. Place chicken breasts onto a serving platter. Spoon about 3 tablespoons liquid from skillet into a small bowl and whisk in cornstarch until smooth; stir cornstarch mixture into skillet and cook until sauce has thickened, about 1 minute. Serve pan sauce with chicken breasts.
