Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 6 oz each)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (14 oz) can quartered artichoke hearts, drained
  • 4 oz cream cheese, cubed
  • ½ cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 5 oz frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed very dry
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • ½ cup shredded mozzarella
  • Fresh parsley, for garnish

Method
 

  1. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Cook 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden and 165°F. Transfer to a plate.
  2. Reduce heat to medium. Add garlic, cook 30 seconds, then add artichokes and cook 1 minute.
  3. Pour in broth, scrape up fond. Add cream cheese, stir 2 to 3 minutes until melted and smooth.
  4. Stir in spinach and Parmesan. Return chicken to skillet, spoon sauce over, cook 5 to 7 minutes until chicken is done.
  5. Sprinkle mozzarella over chicken, cover, cook 2 to 3 minutes until melted. Garnish with parsley and serve.

Notes

If the sauce gets too thick after adding the spinach, thin it with a splash of broth. The chicken can rest for a few minutes off heat before serving; it’ll stay warm.
