Ingredients

  • 4 whole chicken breasts, skinless, boneless, halved
  • 9 ounces marinated artichoke hearts, reserve liquid
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • Flour to dredge chicken
  • 1/2 pound mushrooms quartered
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 can Italian tomatoes with liquid, 22 oz
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 3/4 teaspoon oregano
  • 1 teaspoon basil
  • 1/2 cup black olives, pitted
  • 3/4 cup sherry, straight

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350F.
     
  2. Bring chicken breasts to room temperature. Cut each half-breast into 3 or 4 pieces.
     
  3. Drain artichoke hearts, reserving liquid.
     
  4. Combine half of this liquid in a saute pan with 2 tbsp of the olive oil.
     
  5. Dredge chicken in a little flour. Saute chicken in hot oil mixture in 3 or 4 batches, adding more of the reserved artichoke liquid as necessary.
     
  6. Remove chicken from pan and saute mushrooms, adding butter as needed. Reserve mushrooms in a large bowl.
     
  7. Pour the tomatoes and their liquid, the garlic, and the seasonings into a saute pan, and simmer about 10 mins.
     
  8. Add chicken, olives, reserved artichoke hearts and sherry. Cook another 10 mins, then add mushrooms.
     
  9. Cool mixture and refrigerate or freeze up to one month.
     
  10. On serving day, bring chicken back to room temperature. Bake in 350F oven until hot and bubbly. Serve over brown rice.
     
  11. NOTE: I add some feta cheese crumbled over it. Also, it was great with some orzo pasta.
