Chicken with artichokes and peppers

6 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 tablespoon Corn oil
1 tablespoon Chopped fresh thyme or 1 teaspoon dried thyme
4 Four-ounce boneless, skinless chicken breasts, fat removed
½ teaspoon Freshly ground pepper
½ cup Finely chopped onion (1 small onion)
2 Garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 medium Red bell pepper, cored, seeded, and cut into strips
15 ounces Artichoke hearts in brine, drained
2 tablespoons Dry white wine
¼ teaspoon Salt

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. 2. In a non-stick 8-inch skillet, heat the oil, then add the thyme and chicken breasts. Sprinkle ¼ teaspoon of the pepper over the chicken and cook for 1 minute over medium heat, then turn the chicken over, sprinkle with the remaining ¼ teaspoon pepper, and cook for another minute. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside, retaining the cooking juices in the pan.

3. Add the onion and garlic to the pan, and saute for 1 minute. Add the sweet bell pepper, artichokes, wine, and salt, and cook for 1 more minute. 4. Spoon half the vegetables into an 8-inch casserole, place the chicken breasts over them in one layer, and cover them with the rest of the vegetables. Bake for 18-20 minutes.

To microcook: cook the casserole on high, covered, for 9 minutes, rotating the casserole after 4-½ minutes.
