Recipe Introduction


An excellent taste for chicken - quick and easy to make! Boneless chicken
breasts may also be used. My sister gave me this suggestion, and when I
tasted the cream sauce she made for the chicken - WOW - I couldn't wait for
the whole meal! If there are any ingredients that you don't like, such as
mushrooms, or artichoke, simply omit them. It is the sauce that is the
stunning aspect - and not the traditional 'canned soup' sauce!! ENJOY!!
Prep Time: 20 Minutes
Cook Time: 30 Minutes
Ready In: 50 Minutes
Makes: 4 servings



List of Ingredients




2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 (8 ounce) package button mushrooms, chopped
2 cups chicken broth
4 bone-in chicken breast halves, skinless
1 (10 ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained and sliced
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups half-and-half cream
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper


Recipe



1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Melt 2 tablespoons of
butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Saute mushrooms in butter until
tender. Remove from the skillet, and set aside.
2. Place the chicken into the skillet, and pour the broth over it. Cover,
and simmer over medium heat for 20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked
through. Reserve 1/2 cup of broth from the pan, and discard or save
remaining broth for other uses. Remove the chicken to a 9x13 inch baking
dish, and top with artichokes.
3. Melt the remaining 1/2 cup of butter in a skillet over medium heat, and
whisk in flour until smooth. Gradually stir in the 1/2 cup of reserved
broth, and half and half cream. Cook, stirring constantly, until thickened,
about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat, and stir in the Parmesan cheese,
rosemary, salt and pepper. Pour sauce over the chicken in the baking dish.
Place sauteed mushrooms on the top.
4. Bake uncovered for 30 minutes in the preheated oven. Let stand for a few
minutes before serving to let the sauce thicken.
