Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 14 ounces marinated artichoke hearts, drained and quartered
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 0.5 cup sour cream
- 0.25 cup mayonnaise
- 0.5 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish with cooking spray or butter.
Season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt and black pepper.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken breasts for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove the chicken and set aside to cool slightly, then slice into bite-sized pieces.
In the same skillet, add the diced onion and sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute until fragrant. Remove from heat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, and chicken broth. Mix until smooth. Add the sautéed onion and garlic, artichoke hearts, parmesan cheese, and Italian seasoning. Stir to combine.
Fold the sliced chicken pieces into the mixture until evenly coated. Transfer the mixture to the prepared casserole dish and spread it out evenly.
In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs and melted butter. Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the top of the casserole.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and the top is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let sit for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired.
Serve hot and enjoy!
