Recipe Steps
steps 5
17 min
Step 1
Slice the chicken breasts lengthways so that you can open them out like a book, taking care not to slice all the way through.Step 2
Season the butterflied chicken on both sides. Lightly oil a griddle pan with olive oil over a medium/high heat. Add the butterflied chicken breasts and cook until golden brown on one side, flip and griddle the second side until golden brown and the chicken is completely cooked through.Step 3
Whilst the chicken is cooking, melt a tablespoon of butter in a frying pan over a low/medium heat. Slice the artichokes into strips and finely slice the shallot and garlic. Add the artichoke and shallot to the pan with the melted butter and sweat for a minute or two until tender.Step 4
Add the sliced garlic and lemon zest to the pan along with the remaining butter. Stir well to combine and cook for a further minute or two until the garlic is tender.Step 5
Spoon the artichoke mixture over the butterflied chicken to serve.

This was excellent! I used a medium/large shallot but an x-large garlic clove, and also sprinkled the chicken with garlic powder, along with the salt and pepper. The overall result was that the garlic sort of overpowered the shallot and lemon zest flavors, my fault entirely. Next time, I’ll use less overall garlic and more lemon zest. The lemon zest is a fresh and unique addition to the flavor profile. I may grate a little extra over the top, next time. So yummy!

Great recipe but artichokes are very high in carbohydrates.

1/2 cup is 5 carbs but 1 serving of the chicken with avocados is only 3.5 carbs.
