Ingredients

1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4 ounces each)
3 teaspoons canola oil, divided
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup white wine or reduced-sodium chicken broth
1/2 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 can (14 ounces) water-packed artichoke hearts, rinsed, drained and coarsely chopped

Directions

Combine salt and pepper; sprinkle over chicken. In a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray, cook chicken in 2 teaspoons oil for 4-5 minutes on each side or until lightly browned. Remove and keep warm.
In the same skillet, cook onion and garlic in remaining oil for 3-4 minutes or until onions are tender. Stir in wine and chicken broth, stirring to loosen any browned bits from pan. Bring to a boil. Add chicken. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 10-15 minutes or until chicken juices run clear. Remove chicken; keep warm.
Add artichokes to pan. Return to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 8-12 minutes or until liquid is reduced by half. Serve with chicken.

I thought it was a little bland. Also, maybe serve over rice? I think it needs something else added to jazz it up.

Very simple recipe, I will definately be making it again, embellishing some, maybe adding mushrooms and/or olives. My family didn't care for the wine flavor though so next time I will just use the chicken broth. But all in all a wonderfully quick and easy meal. I cut the breasts in half thickness wise and it made it go further and cook quicker.
