Chicken with Artichokes and Tomatoes

Chicken with Artichokes and Tomatoes

Deeply browned chicken thigh meat is accompanied by salty ham, richly flavored artichokes, and sweet carrots and onions in this phenomenal weeknight dinner whose sophistication belies its simplicity. The wine, canned chopped tomatoes, and a delicate zest of lemon bring it all together for a satisfying meal that works equally well on its own, or served over hearty noodles.

Made with Polpa
