Ok, this was a hit for me and THE MEAT EATER a couple days ago. I had a bunch of artichokes left over,frozen chicken which i had thawed and some peas that needed to be eaten or go the way of all things.
and wanted something super simple.
I DID accidentally omit 2 items unwittingly, But this came out lovely anyway. I threw the peas in for fun, i admit.
I would eat this again and again and also serve to guests.
A word to the wise: Always rinse and drain those canned artichoke hearts. That water they are kept in has a tang that can really mess up a recipe.
He ate this over pasta, I ate it over spaghetti squash!
STUPID EASY: Baked Artichoke Chicken
4 lbs. your choice chicken cut up
1 cup rinsed artichoke pieces, halved (canned is fine, I used fresh which is a pain but worth it)
1 medium onion, cut into pieces same size as the artichokes1 pound any mushrooms (halved or quartered)
2 tablespoons coarse mustard
2-3 cloves garlic, minced
***1 cup small peas (frozen or fresh)
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
***1/4 cup red or white wine (you could also sub in chicken stock)
1/4 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
***1/4 teaspoon dried tarragon
1 bay leaf
kosher salt and pepper (to taste)
Preheat oven to 350F-375F, depending if you like crispy skin or not.
Place artichokes, onions and mushrooms on the bottom of a big pan.
Place chicken pieces on top of the vegetables.
Mix the mustard with the rest of the ingredients and pour over chicken.
Season w/ salt & pepper.
***My changes and or accidental omissions.
Adapted for a recipe on THE CHEW.
FAMILY TALLY: A+ from the two of us, everyone else was MIA.
