Pro Tips

Browning the chicken before baking locks in the juices, giving you a moist and tender dish.
Do not discard the marinade from the artichokes – it doubles as a brilliant base for the sauce.
For deeper flavor, consider marinating the chicken in the artichoke marinade for a few hours or overnight in the fridge before cooking.
Feel free to add other dried herbs like thyme or rosemary for added depth of flavor.
Apart from onions, other vegetables such as bell peppers or cherry tomatoes can also be added for a more colorful and nutritious dish.
To ensure the chicken is fully cooked, use a meat thermometer. The internal temperature of cooked chicken should register at least 165°F.

Marinate: For more flavor, marinate the chicken in the artichoke marinade for a few hours or overnight.
Herbs: Additional dried herbs like thyme or rosemary enhance the flavor.
Veggies: Add chopped bell peppers or cherry tomatoes.
Doneness: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is cooked through.
Rest: For juicier chicken, allow the dish to rest for 10 minutes before serving.
Storage: Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for 3 to 4 days and reheat as needed.

Made this dish last night. It was delicious! My boyfriend and I loved it! I will definitely make it again. I marinated the chicken all day and added the red peppers you suggested. My only issue/question is, when I added the herbs, thyme and oregano, it was hard to fry without burning and a lot of it came off. Did I put it on at the wrong time? I took the chicken out of the marinade into a strainer and added the salt, pepper and herbs and then fried. Once most of it came off, it browned perfectly.

  You can, but in absence of that marinade/liquid, the dish will lack flavor. I would suggest to use olive oil plus dried herbs, and not the water.

Your pictures are just gorgeous! Here in Alaska, artichokes aren’t commonly used (especially fresh). This would be an excellent dish for me to ‘get my feet wet’ with the jarred. Thanks for the recipe!

I’m so addicted to marinated artichokes!! We love Cara Mia. Not only do I eat them as I am trying to cook with them, but my kids steal them too, so I usually buy double if I am planning to cook with them. And I have to hide them if I buy them ahead, because the kids will snack on them! Can’t wait to try your chicken!
