Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1.5 cups artichoke hearts (canned or jarred, drained and chopped)
- 0.5 cups mayonnaise
- 0.5 cups sour cream
- 1 cups Parmesan cheese (grated)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika (for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with olive oil and set aside.
Step 2
Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Step 3
Sear the chicken breasts in the skillet for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are lightly golden. Do not cook through; they will finish cooking in the oven. Place the seared chicken into the prepared baking dish.
Step 4
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the chopped artichoke hearts, mayonnaise, sour cream, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, and lemon juice. Mix well until thoroughly combined.
Step 5
Spread the artichoke mixture evenly over the chicken breasts, ensuring each piece is fully coated.
Step 6
Sprinkle a light dusting of paprika over the top of the artichoke mixture for added color.
Step 7
Bake the dish in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the topping is golden and bubbly.
Step 8
Carefully remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Step 9
Serve warm alongside rice, pasta, or a fresh green salad. Enjoy!
