Artichoke Chicken Bake

I swear the squirrels in our neighbourhood have learned how to cross the roads, they actually slow down and stop when a car approaches.  They often turn and go back the other way!

The English Kitchen recently posted this easy recipe and I had to try it. It was absolutely delicious, no doubt because it calls for 3/4 c low fat mayonnaise and 3/4 c parmesan cheese.  The chicken was so tender. The marinated artichokes certainly add something to the dish. I used skinless chicken breasts with the bones in, so added an extra 15 minutes to the baking time.



I made some bowtie pasta to go with the dish.  Once the chicken was done,  I decided to remove the bones, cut the chicken into pieces and mixed the pasta in, to make it a one pot meal as pictured:

You are such an amazing cook, Christine! I love artichoke. Anything with mayo and parmesan cheese has got to be yummy. :-)

Not sure I'd like this. I'm not a big fan of artichokes unfortunately.

Looks great Christine!! It's really a fabulous dish. I love that you mixed it into the pasta. I always do that with the leftovers. They taste fab mixed into pasta, or even rice/wild rice mixture! (My fav!!) Thanks for the nod!

Funny about the squirrels Christine. Parmesan cheese and mayonnaise, well I think that has hooked me in. I should try out some new recipes. I tend to bake cakes and desserts, a little too much and it shows unfortunately. By the way the link for the competition is http://www.museodelapalabra.com/en/short-tales-contest/3-edition/participation-form

I fixed it up on my blog too so thanks for letting me know. You have to go in it as we are writing all the time on our blogs. I really want to start a meme now with the 100 word flash fiction but not sure anyone would be interested.
