Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 14 ounces canned artichoke hearts, drained and quartered
- 1 cup coconut milk (canned, full-fat)
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 small onion, diced
- 0.5 cup chicken broth
Instructions
In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat.
Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Reduce the heat to medium and add the diced onion. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.
Add the minced garlic and artichoke hearts to the skillet, stirring for an additional 2 minutes.
Pour in the chicken broth, coconut milk, and lemon juice, stirring to combine.
Let the mixture simmer for about 8-10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together and the sauce to thicken slightly.
Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet, spoon some of the sauce over the top, and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes to allow the chicken to absorb the flavors.
Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
Serve the Dairy-Free Artichoke Chicken warm, alongside your choice of rice, pasta, or a green salad.
