GRILLED CHICKEN PASTA SALAD WITH ARTICHOKE HEARTS
Use canned artichoke hearts but make sure to rinse them thoroughly. I've also used this recipe with turkey sausage or pepperoni instead of the grilled chicken and both make fun substitutions. This travels well! If you want to cut down on oil, try subbing half chicken broth.

CHICKEN W SUN-DRIED TOMATOES & ARTICHOKE HEARTS
I first had this dish at a wonderful Italian restaurant that would eventually become my favorite place to eat. My request for the recipe was, of course, denied. Over the months, as I got to know the servers, I questioned the ingredients of this dish. This is extremely close to the restaurant dish. You may use your choice of alfredo sauces and pasta. recipe #76 appears very close to the restaurant style alfredo. I like this with fettuccine but some like angel hair pasta. Your choice. :-)

Another recipe I made when I was learning to cook and trying to impress the boyfriend who is now my DH!

I've also added parboiled, quartered potatoes at the start, and really like the artichoke hearts and potatoes together. Adapted from Betty Croker's New International Cookbook.

CHICKEN HEARTS
Chicken hearts are often overlooked. If you have never tried them, do. They are really quite tender, if you don't overcook them. You can always chop them up and make a stuffing (dressing) to use them up if you don't like eating them. Does that make it easier to give them a try?

Steps:
- Heat 1/4 cup oil in a heavy skillet over medium heat. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add chicken thighs and cook, turning occasionally, until fully browned and garlic has burned slightly, about 10 minutes; the burnt garlic will add to the smoky flavor of the dish.
- Add sofrito to the skillet and stir until chicken is coated in sofrito and oil. Season with salt and pepper. Turn heat to low and cook until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 10 to 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove from the heat and set aside.
- Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add mushrooms and season with salt and pepper. Cook until mushrooms are slightly brown, adding a bit more oil if pan gets too dry, about 5 minutes. Stir in spinach and cook for 5 minutes. Add tomatoes and chicken, garlic, and sofrito mixture from the skillet; stir to mix.
- Return the skillet to the stove and turn heat to high. Pour Cabernet Sauvignon into the pan and bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Transfer wine glaze to the Dutch oven; mix to combine. Add 2 cups chicken broth or more to fully cover the chicken. Reduce heat to low and simmer for at least 1 hour.
- Shortly before serving, place pine nuts in a dry skillet over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until browned, about 3 minutes. Add pine nuts to the chicken mixture. Stir in artichoke hearts and allow to heat for 1 minute prior to serving.

Tips:
- Choose fresh chicken hearts: Look for hearts that are plump, firm, and have a deep red color. Avoid hearts that are pale, slimy, or have an off odor.
- Clean the chicken hearts properly: Rinse the hearts under cold water and remove any excess fat or connective tissue. Cut away the small white tube at the top of the heart, as it can be tough and chewy.
- Marinate the chicken hearts: Marinating the hearts in a flavorful mixture of herbs, spices, and liquids will help to tenderize them and infuse them with flavor. You can use a variety of marinades, such as a simple mixture of olive oil, garlic, and lemon juice, or a more complex marinade with ingredients like yogurt, paprika, and cumin.
- Cook the chicken hearts over medium heat: Cooking the hearts over medium heat will help to prevent them from becoming tough and chewy. Cook the hearts until they are just cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side.
- Serve the chicken hearts with your favorite sides: Chicken hearts can be served with a variety of sides, such as rice, pasta, vegetables, or salad. You can also use them in tacos, burritos, or kebabs.
Conclusion:
Chicken hearts are a delicious and versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of dishes. They are a good source of protein, iron, and zinc. When cooked properly, chicken hearts are tender, flavorful, and have a slightly chewy texture. If you are looking for a new and exciting way to cook chicken, give chicken hearts a try. You may be surprised at how much you enjoy them!
