Ingredients

• 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 cup white mushrooms, sliced
• 1 cup artichoke hearts, drained and quartered
• 0.5 cup dry white wine
• 0.5 cup chicken stock
• 0.5 cup heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons capers, rinsed and drained
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt and black pepper.

Step 2

Lightly dredge the chicken breasts in the flour, shaking off any excess.

Step 3

In a large skillet, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat until the butter is melted and foaming.

Step 4

Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Step 5

In the same skillet, add the sliced mushrooms. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes, or until they release their moisture and begin to brown.

Step 6

Stir in the artichoke hearts and cook for 2 more minutes.

Step 7

Deglaze the skillet by adding the white wine, scraping the bottom of the pan to lift any browned bits. Allow the wine to reduce by half, about 2 minutes.

Step 8

Add the chicken stock and heavy cream to the skillet. Stir well to combine and simmer for 3-4 minutes, or until the sauce thickens slightly.

Step 9

Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, nestling them into the sauce. Spoon some of the sauce over the chicken.

Step 10

Sprinkle in the capers and let everything simmer together for 5 minutes to meld the flavors.

Step 11

Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve immediately. Chicken Jerusalem pairs beautifully with rice, mashed potatoes, or crusty bread.
