Directions:Cut the artichoke hearts in half lengthwise, cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces. In a medium bowl, mix the flour with about 1 teaspoon salt and a generous quantity of black pepper, toss the chicken pieces into the flour. Heat a 12 inch skillet over medium-high heat, add 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of oil, add the artichokes, cook for a bout 5 minutes or until lightly browned on each side. Remove the artichokes from the skillet and set aside. Melt the remaining tablespoon of butter and oil, remove the chicken pieces from the flour and sauté for 5 to 7 minutes or until well-browned on both sides. (for best flavor, look for a golden crust to develop and make sure both sides are browned. Add the browned artichokes back to the pan. Pour in the wine and scrape any bits from the bottom of the pan, bring to a simmer and let simmer for 8 to 10 minutes over medium heat. The sauce will thicken, stir well to coat everything in the wine sauce. Stir in a few squeezes of fresh lemon juice. Garnish if desired with finely chopped parsley. |
