This is a great recipe for anyone who likes artichokes and mushrooms... personally, I love both. And the sauce is creamy delicious. I meant to serve it over rice, but when I went to retrieve some from the pantry... I was out! Oh, well. It was wonderful anyway. I actually froze half of the recipe in a pyrex dish and the pictures are from the frozen portion - it turned out great!

Wow--Mindy your dinner looks delish! I LOVE artichokes and mushrooms too. I wll have to make this dish the next time Brad is out of town. Love you!
ReplyDeleteI love this dish. It was published in the Junior League Cookbook and several others that have been around for years - it's one of Pam Holt's family favorites. It is one of those that everyone loves. Yours looks great! YOu better watch out, Mind. No one is going to believe that cooking isn't your talent!

This looks yummy! I can't wait to try it. And I'm so excited to see more of your recipes...it must be the nesting instinct kicking in! :)
ReplyDeleteMindy! I made this dish 2 nights ago! It is AMAZING! SINFULLY GOOD! The only thing I did different was I added about 1 tablespoon of the marinade from the artichoke hearts to the sauce. Also, I served it with mashed red potatoes (skins on!- TX style!) with a side of asparagus. It was sooooo good! Thanks for posting this!

I'm new to cooking, so maybe this is a dumb question.... but do you drain the artichokes before adding them? Thanks.
ReplyDeleteHi Darcie,
ReplyDeleteYes, you drain the artichokes. This is the best recipe. I hope you enjoy it!
I heard about your blog and how great the recipes were; so I made this Creamy Artichoke Chicken recipe tonight and it was so so good!!! I am going to share this with all my friends!!
ReplyDeleteThis is one of my favorite meals! I am wanting to make it for the next time I have guests over for dinner. I am wondering if you thought this recipe would work cooked in the crock pot instead? I am not a big fan of simmering chicken and I also like how tender chicken is when cooked in the crock pot. Let me know what you think! Thanks:)
