• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 pieces garlic cloves, minced
• 0.5 cup dry sherry
• 0.75 cup heavy cream

• 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.

Step 2

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.

Step 4

Add the chicken breasts to the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Remove the chicken and set aside.

Step 5

Lower the heat slightly and add the minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

Step 6

Pour the sherry into the skillet, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom with a wooden spoon.

Step 7

Stir in the heavy cream and chicken broth, bringing the mixture to a gentle simmer.

Step 8

Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, nestling them into the sauce.

Step 9

Add the artichoke hearts to the skillet, spreading them evenly around the chicken.

Step 10

Cover the skillet with a lid and simmer on low heat for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F).

Step 11

Stir in the lemon juice and chopped parsley for added brightness.

Step 12

Serve the chicken and artichoke hearts with the creamy sherry sauce drizzled over the top. Pair with rice, mashed potatoes, or crusty bread for a complete meal.
