Description

A yummy pantry meal!

Ingredients

  • 8 whole Chicken Legs Or Thighs
  • Salt And Pepper, to taste
  • 3 Tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 16 ounces, weight White Mushrooms, Sliced
  • 5 whole Garlic Cloves, Minced
  • ½ cups White Wine, Or More To Taste
  • 2 cups Chicken Broth (More As Needed)
  • 1 whole (14 1/2 Oz. Size) Artichoke Hearts, Drained , Rinsed, And Patted Dry
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream
  • Freshly Chopped Chives To Taste
  • Freshly Grated Parmesan
  • 16 ounces, weight Pasta, Cooked And Drained

Preparation

Salt and pepper chicken pieces.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken pieces and brown for 1 to 2 minutes. Remove chicken from skillet.

Add sliced mushrooms to pan with the garlic, and stir around and cook for a couple of minutes. Add wine and cook for a minute while it evaporates.

Pour in chicken broth—you should have enough for it to be very liquidy. Stir to deglaze the pan, the add chicken back to pan. Add artichoke hearts. Put the lid on the skillet and continue cooking over medium-low heat (or in a 375 degree oven) for 30 minutes, checking to make sure chicken broth doesn’t completely evaporate. (Add more as needed).

Remove lid and reduce heat to low. Remove chicken from pan. Pour in cream and shake/stir to distribute. Add chives, then add chicken back to pan. Put lid on pan again and cook for an additional 10 minutes to thicken sauce. Stir and check for seasonings; add salt and pepper to taste.

Pour over cooked pasta. Top with more chives and Parmesan. Yum!

I made this last night….it was incredible! I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts and sliced them into thin strips after they were cooked. I served it over cavatappi because it’s such a cute pasta. The only thing I would do differently is serve it in a bowl instead of on a plate because the sauce is pretty runny.

Yummo!! Made this tonight with a couple of minor changes.

Due to my extreme aversion to dark meat anything, I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts. Browned them, let them sit and then cut into slices. Then added them back into pan with mushrooms, artichokes, etc. and cooked.

I also added a little Wondra to thicken the sauce at the end.

Extremely good and simple!!!

Everyone in the family loved it! Even DS 8 who doen’t like mushrooms. Amazing what happens when you teach them to prepare dinner. He sliced the mushrooms with a “real” knife. I did not use artichokes for the sake of DD4. I also used 1/2 n 1/2. (Gasp, choke, sorry Ree.) It’s what I had in the fridge at the time.

This was so good! I didn’t have chives so I used tarragon, I figured I couldn’t go wrong there. Out of 6 of us, three LOVED it and 3 liked it. The ones who only liked it objected to the artichoke hearts (silly them).

Amazing, served it over fresh linguine and wow. I was so glad there were leftovers. This is going in regular rotation at our house.

I agree the sauce isn’t thick, but the flavor is huge! I’ve made this twice, soaking up the leftover sauce with crusty bread the first time and slurping up with a spoon the second. I wouldn’t change a thing!

Wonderful flavor. One of my favorite combinations is chicken and artichokes. I agree with the others that the sauce was not thick enough. Next time I will make a roux or use some cornstarch to thicken it up.

Yum! But I’m with the other commenters- sauce was thin (maybe I was to impatient?)

This was good, but my sauce was also VERY thin. Next time I will be reducing the amount of broth and the amount of pasta.

This tasted awesome, but the sauce was *very* thin. The next time I make this, I’ll be reducing the amount of liquid going in and trying to thicken the sauce as well.
