Provided by Tania

Categories     Main Course

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 13

½ pound fettuccine pasta
Olive oil for pan
2 large chicken breasts, cut into cubes (skinless, boneless)
1 teaspoon Italian herbs seasoning
Salt and pepper
1 (14 ounce) jar artichoke hearts in water, quartered
3 cloves minced garlic, divided
1 (14 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
½ cup heavy cream (plus more to taste)
Granulated sugar, a few pinches
2 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped (plus more for garnish)
1 cup fresh spinach leaves, packed
Parmesan cheese for garnish

Steps:

  • Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
  • Season the chicken with the Italian seasoning, 1 teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper.
  • In a large skillet, heat about 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown on the outside and fully cooked inside. Add minced garlic (from 1 clove) along with artichoke hearts, and cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
  • Wipe skillet clean. On the same skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Add the remaining minced garlic and cook about 2-3 minutes until fragrant. Add the crushed tomatoes and bring to a simmer. Then add the basil and the heavy cream. Stir to combine and bring back to a simmer for 1 minute. If it tastes a bit too acidic (tomatoes can taste acidic), add a few pinches of granulated sugar - it works like a charm! Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
  • To the sauce in the pan, add the chicken and artichokes back, along with the cooked fettuccine, and the fresh spinach. Toss everything until combined. Garnish with parmesan cheese and basil. Enjoy!

CHICKEN, ARTICHOKE AND BROCCOLI BAKE WITH HERB BREAD CRUMBS



Chicken, Artichoke and Broccoli Bake With Herb Bread Crumbs image

This one-dish dinner is indeed a casserole - but it's bright and light, and nearly effortless. Toss canned artichokes with capers, garlic and chicken stock, pour over chicken breasts and broccoli florets, then let the oven do the work. Canned artichokes are the main flavor builder here so opt for the firmer water-packed variety, which hold their shape better during cooking. While the casserole bakes, toast the panko bread crumbs and season them with dill. Serve the chicken with a squeeze of lemon for brightness and a sprinkle of herby bread crumbs for crunch.

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (1½ to 2 pounds total)
1 small head broccoli (about 1 pound), tough stem discarded, head cut into 2-inch florets (about 4 cups)
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and black pepper
2 (14-ounce) cans quartered artichoke hearts in water, drained (about 4 cups)
1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
2 tablespoons drained capers
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
5 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. In a 3-quart baking dish, combine chicken, broccoli florets and 2 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper. Toss to evenly coat, spread broccoli in an even layer and arrange chicken breasts on top.
  • In a large bowl, combine artichokes, broth, capers, butter, garlic and 2 tablespoons oil and season with salt and pepper. Gently toss, then spoon mixture over chicken and broccoli. Bake until chicken is cooked through and artichokes are golden in spots, 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a small skillet, heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil over medium. Add panko, reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring frequently, until golden and crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl to cool, then stir in dill and season with salt and pepper.
  • Divide chicken and vegetables among shallow bowls and spoon over some of the pan juices. Squeeze with lemon and top with dill bread crumbs.

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.

Categories     dinner, poultry, roasts, main course

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:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and tools ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling around during the cooking process.
  • Choose High-Quality Ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will have a big impact on the flavor of your dish. Use fresh, organic ingredients whenever possible.
  • Cook the Chicken Properly: Chicken is a lean protein that can easily dry out. Be sure to cook it over medium heat until it is cooked through but still juicy. Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • Sauté the Vegetables: Sautéing the vegetables in olive oil will help them to caramelize and develop flavor. Be sure to cook them until they are tender but still have a bit of a bite to them.
  • Use Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs add a lot of flavor to this dish. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use less since they are more concentrated.
  • Add the Pasta: Cook the pasta according to the package directions. Once the pasta is cooked, drain it and add it to the skillet with the chicken and vegetables.
  • Make the Sauce: In a separate bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, and salt and pepper. Add the sauce to the skillet with the chicken, vegetables, and pasta. Stir until the sauce is evenly distributed.
  • Serve Immediately: This dish is best served immediately. Garnish with additional Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh herbs, if desired.

Conclusion:

Chicken artichoke pasta is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please the whole family. It is packed with flavor and nutrients, and it is also a great way to use up leftover chicken. Serve it with a side salad or a crusty loaf of bread for a complete meal.
