Recipe Introduction


If you prefer, use fine-grain couscous, which will cook in less than five minutes.





List of Ingredients



• Boneless, skinless chicken breast half (6 ounces)
  
• Coarse salt and ground pepper
  
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  
• 4 sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, drained, and slivered
  
• 4 teaspoons olive oil
  
• ½ cup artichoke hearts packed in water, drained, rinsed, and halved
  
• 2 scallions, green and white parts separated, thinly sliced
  
• 2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
  
• ¼ cup Israeli couscous (optional)
  






Instructions



1. Place chicken between 2 sheets of plastic wrap or waxed paper. With the flat side of a meat mallet or a small skillet, pound to a 1/2-inch thickness. To soften noise, place chicken in plastic on a folded kitchen towel when pounding.
   
2. In a medium skillet, heat 3 teaspoons of the oil over medium-high heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Coat chicken in flour, shaking off excess. Sauté until golden brown and cooked through, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side. Remove.
   
3. To pan, add garlic, white part of the scallions, and 1/2 cup water; bring to a boil, scraping up browned bits. Add artichokes, sun-dried tomatoes, and remaining teaspoon oil; season with salt and pepper. Cook until artichokes are heated through and sauce has reduced slightly, about 1 minute. Spoon mixture over chicken.
   
4. To make couscous, if desired: Bring a small pot of salted water to boil; add couscous. Boil until couscous is tender but still pleasantly chewy, about 10 minutes. Drain, toss with scallion greens, and serve alongside chicken.
