Greek Island Chicken With Marinated Artichokes image

A tasty chicken dish - with a flavoursome blend of herbs, spices, vegetables and honey - which is nonetheless still reasonably low both in calories and in fat. Adapted from Paige Morehouse's recipe which appears in Prevention Healthy Cooking's 'Eat Up, Slim Down: Tried-and-true recipes and tips from real weight-loss winners' by Jane Kirby and David Joachim. Because the recipe contains several vegetables, it really is a stand-alone dish. When I've made it, I've added a bit more garlic (personal preference). The original recipe had 2 cloves of garlic; and I've included more like 8 ounces of mushrooms (again, personal preference). The original recipe had 3 ounces of mushrooms. I've always used kalamata olives when making this dish.

Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 tablespoon olive oil
4 boneless chicken breasts, skinned
1 onion, chopped
4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
8 ounces mushrooms
1 cup white wine
8 ounces bottled marinated artichoke hearts
1 ounce sun-dried tomato, dry-packed coarsely chopped
1 1/2 ounces Greek olives, pitted, halved
1 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning
1 teaspoon honey
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
2 1/2 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
4 lemon wedges or 4 lemon slices

Steps:

  • Warm the oil in a large non-stick pan (which has a lid) over a medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 5 minutes on each side, or until browned. Transfer to a plate.
  • Reduce the heat to medium, add the onion and garlic. Cook for 5 minutes, or until the onion has softened.
  • Stir in the mushrooms and cook for a further 10 minutes or until the mushrooms have softened and the juices have reduced.
  • Add the wine, artichokes, tomatoes, olives, lemon-pepper seasoning, honey, salt, oregano, cinnamon and chicken.
  • Reduce the heat to low, cover and cook for 15 minutes.
  • Uncover and cook for 5 minutes, or until the sauce thickens slightly and a thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the breasts registers 70ºC/169ºF and the juices run clear.
  • Sprinkle with the cheese and serve over rice with the lemon wedges.

I'm not a fan of artichokes, so I left them out of the recipe. The chicken was still very flavorful.

This recipe was too complicated for me. I ended up burning the chicken.
