Italian Chicken
I’m sorry if you’re a “tomater-hater”… you’re probably disgusted by all my recipes!.. Just know you’re reeeeally missing out!
Ingredients
- 8 chicken thighs
- 2 cloves of garlic
- 1 jar artichoke hearts
- extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 5 roma tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons fresh basil
- 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese
Instructions
- Core and chop about 4-5 roma tomatoes.
- Thinly slice two cloves of garlic.
- Drain a small jar of artichoke hearts.
- Place all ingredients in a bowl and pour in a few tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, a generous amount of S&P, a teaspoon of sugar, a couple tablespoons of flour {since the chicken will produce so much liquid}.
- Place the tomato mixture in with the boneless skinless chicken breasts {that are generously seasoned with S&P}. Place in a 350 degree oven and bake until the chicken is almost done.
- Take the almost done chicken out of the oven and sprinkle mozzarella cheese over the top. Place the chicken under the broiler for a few minutes {keep an eye on it!} until the cheese is golden brown and the vegetables are caramelized.
- When you pull the chicken out of the oven, sprinkle some fresh basil on top and the heat of the dish will wilt the basil.
- Serve over whatever pasta you love and ENJOY.
