How to Make Chicken With Artichokes And Melted Lemons

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in an 8-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Swirl to coat the pan.
  2. Add the chicken breasts and sear for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown.
  3. Remove the chicken breasts from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
  4. Increase the heat to high. Add the lemon juice to the skillet and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
  5. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer, scraping up any remaining bits.
  6. Reduce heat to medium. Arrange the lemon slices in the skillet.
  7. Place the chicken breasts on top of the lemon slices.
  8. Add the drained capers, cover the skillet, and reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer for 10 minutes.
  9. Remove the lid, add the drained artichoke hearts, and cover again.
  10. Continue cooking for 5 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  11. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside on a warm plate.
  12. Increase the heat to medium-high and simmer the sauce until it reduces to a glaze, about 2-3 minutes.
  13. Taste the sauce and season with salt and pepper as needed. A little salt helps balance the acidity.
  14. Drizzle the glaze over the chicken and artichoke hearts.
  15. Serve immediately and enjoy!
