Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 jar (approximately 12 ounces) Marinated artichoke hearts
- 0.5 cups Chicken broth
- 4 cloves Garlic cloves (minced)
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Dried basil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped, optional for garnish)
Instructions
Season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sear the chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown. This step is optional but adds flavor.
Transfer the chicken breasts to the crock pot in an even layer.
Drain the marinated artichoke hearts (reserve the liquid if desired for extra flavor), and spread them over the chicken in the crock pot.
In a small bowl, mix together the chicken broth, minced garlic, lemon juice, dried oregano, and dried basil. Pour this mixture evenly over the chicken and artichokes.
Cover the crock pot with a lid and cook on LOW for 6-7 hours or on HIGH for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is tender and cooked through.
Before serving, taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm with your favorite side dishes like rice, pasta, or a fresh salad.
