CHICKEN WITH SUN-DRIED TOMATOES AND ARTICHOKES

Steps:

• Warm olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Sprinkle both sides of each chicken breast lightly with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Place flour in a small plate or shallow bowl, then dredge both sides of each chicken breast lightly through the flour. Gently shake off any excess, then place chicken in the skillet.
• Cook chicken for 3-4 minutes on each side, until golden brown on the outside and cooked through. Remove chicken to a plate and set aside. Reduce heat to medium.
• If the skillet looks dry, add a tiny bit more olive oil. Add garlic and cook for 30-60 seconds, just until fragrant. Add broth, bring to a simmer, and gently scrape the bottom of the skillet to loosen any browned bits. Add sun-dried tomatoes and 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning. Continue simmering for 1-2 minutes, until the liquid is slightly reduced.
• Stir in the cream and artichoke hearts. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until warmed through.
• Return chicken to the skillet, spooning a bit of sauce over each piece. Serve and enjoy!
