    List of Ingredients




    3/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth
    2 teaspoons lemon zest, grated
    3 tablespoons lemon juice, fresh
    1 tablespoon cornstarch
    1 teaspoon sugar
    4 (5-ounce) skinless boneless chicken breasts
    1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
    2 teaspoons olive oil
    1 (8-ounce) package sliced fresh white mushrooms
    1 (14-ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained and halved
    1 (5-ounce) bag baby spinach leaves
    1 tablespoon capers, chopped

    Recipe



    Combine the broth, zest, lemon juice, cornstarch, and sugar in a small bowl; set aside.

    Sprinkle both sides of each chicken breast with the dill, salt, and pepper. Heat 1 teaspoon of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned and almost cooked through, about 3 minutes on each side. Transfer to a plate; keep warm.

    Heat the remaining 1 teaspoon oil in same skillet. Add mushrooms and cook until browned, about 6 minutes. Add the artichoke hearts and spinach and cook, stirring often, until the spinach is wilted, about 2 minutes. Add the broth mixture and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture boils and thickens, about 1 minute. Add the chicken and capers and cook until heated through, about 1 minute.
