This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I had some rotisserie chicken from the grocery store, and it worked perfectly.

I've never cooked with artichokes before, but they were surprisingly easy to work with. This recipe is a great introduction to cooking with this vegetable.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste, but my husband loved it. I'll probably try making it again with a lighter pesto sauce.

I'm not a huge fan of pesto, but this dish was surprisingly good. The chicken was tender and flavorful, and the artichokes added a nice touch.

Not bad, but not amazing either. I found the artichokes to be a bit overpowering.

The pesto sauce was a bit too oily for my taste, so I added a bit of lemon juice to balance it out. Otherwise, a great recipe.

Easy to follow recipe, even for a beginner cook like me. The combination of flavors was spot-on.

Delicious! I omitted the peas, and added a few sun-dried tomatoes instead. Will definitely make this dish again.

I made this dish last night and it turned out wonderfully! I added a bit of extra garlic to the pesto, and roasted the artichokes for a bit longer to get them nice and crispy. Served with a glass of Pinot Grigio, it was a perfect meal.
