Chicken Thigh, Skin Eaten

3 large
Artichoke Hearts Or Globe, Canned In Oil Mixture

3 heart
Garlic, Fresh

2 clove
Olive Oil

1 tablespoon
Unsalted Butter

1 tablespoon
Shallot

1 tablespoon, chopped
Rosemary, Fresh

1 teaspoon
Lemon Peel Or Zest Raw

1 tsp
Heavy Cream

¾ cup
Chicken broth

0.5 cup
Parmesan Cheese

¼ cup, grated
Salt, Sea Salt

⅛ teaspoon
Black Pepper

⅛ teaspoon

Step 1

Add the olive oil to a frying pan over a medium/high heat. Season the chicken thighs to taste and add to the pan, skin side down. Keep the chicken skin side down in the pan for roughly 10 minutes until the skin is crisp and golden. Flip the chicken thighs and cook the other side over a medium heat for roughly 8-10 minutes or until the chicken is completely cooked through and the juices run clear. This will depend on the thickness of the chicken.
Step 2

Whilst the chicken is cooking, melt the butter in a separate pan over a low/medium heat. Finely slice the shallot and artichoke and add to the pan, sweating until tender.
Step 3

Mince the garlic and finely chop the rosemary. Add to the pan and stir well to combine, cooking until fragrant.
Step 4

Add the stock, cream and lemon zest and bring to a gentle boil. Reduce to a simmer and stir well. Continue to simmer for a few minutes until the sauce begins to thicken.
Step 5

Add the Parmesan to the pan, season and stir into the sauce until well combined.
Step 6

Serve the hot chicken thighs with the creamy artichoke sauce.

This was great! I used frozen artichokes and didn't eat the chicken skin because I was already high in my fat for the day, and these modifications allowed me to be in my limit. Also - what is 3 artichokes?? I used 1 1/2 c since a serving of artichokes is typically 1/2 c and this made 3 servings. I also found 3 servings to be an odd number... but I have another serving for myself today. So Yay! I'm notorious about not preparing everything at the beginning - and thought the 20 min would be enough for me to chop the scallion, artichokes and sweat them down. Not sure why my stove didn't agree. But I just rested the chicken in it's pan for a couple minutes while the rest came together, and it was fine. Hubby had mashed potatoes - and the sauce was great with them - I did feel I was missing something - someone suggested Palmini and I think that would be great!

Easy and delicious. My husband said it’s the best chicken dish he’s had in a while & asked me to not forget this recipe!

I will make this again. I used skinless thighs. After reading the reviews I decided to add mushrooms and spinach which stretched it to 4 servings. Really good!

I loved this recipe. I used a chicken breast instead of thighs. I put this over Palmtini linguine. First experience with Palmtini. Definitely have to cook it at least ten minutes otherwise it is a little too hard.

I used lean chicken breast and no onion or artichoke because those just jack up the carbs, good stuff

What canned artichokes are being used? Can’t find any that match the nutritional info in this recipe. Thanks

Yummmmmmmy! Easy to make and delicious to eat. The next time I make this I will add mushrooms and capers. Believe me it is good just following the recipe.

This is absolutely delicious!!! Thank you for the recipe! I hate when people rate recipes but have made many changes, so that's not my intention. I have only one suggestion and that is not to use 2 pans. There is so much amazing flavor in the pan the chicken is cooked in. Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the pan and set aside, then pour out the extra oil. Then start the sauce, scrapping up the bits on the bottom. Yummy, again thank you!

I think this is dinner tonight! 😄 I've read that there are healthy and low carb options to use as thickeners, and my go-to is now ground flax seed. I'll have it handy in case the sauce doesn't thicken. Also, nutritional yeast (nooch or hippie dust for short 😁) is a low carb, tasty, nutritious additive that gives everything a rich, cheesy flavor. I might add a tbsp to the sauce and see how it tastes. I'll report back after I make it. Sure sounds delicious!!

This is by far one of the best dishes on here I use boneless thighs I take avocado oil at a high heat to put a little color on them, then follow the rest of the recipe. Seriously delicious we have it at least once a week!

I tend to add a bit of glucomannan powder to my sauces to thicken them. Works like a charm without the added carbs that things like cornstarch would add. It’s made of the same stuff that they use to make shiritaki noodles.

Very good. Just added a tablespoon or so of cornstarch to the liquid to thicken it due to the remarks of those who went before me! 😍
