HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels and cut them into 1-inch pieces. In a medium bowl, toss the chicken with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.

02

Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned on all sides and mostly cooked through.

03

Add the drained and quartered artichoke hearts to the skillet with the chicken. Cook for 3 minutes, stirring gently.

04

Pour in the chicken broth and fresh lemon juice. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the skillet, and cook for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the chicken to finish cooking.

05

Remove the lid and increase the heat to medium-high. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has slightly reduced and thickened.

06

Remove the skillet from the heat. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.

Easy Substitutions

Chicken breast can be used instead of thighs, but reduce cooking time slightly to prevent drying out. If fresh lemon is unavailable, use bottled lemon juice. Dried parsley can be used in place of fresh, but use 1 teaspoon instead of 2 tablespoons.
