OR 2 1/2 3 lbs. Chicken parts (with bone), skin removed
1 can (8 1/2 oz.) artichoke hearts, drained
1/4 lb. Fresh mushrooms, sliced
(Note from Mary: I have used canned mushrooms and it still turns out
good.)
1/4 tsp. Pepper
1/2 tsp. Paprika
1 1/3 cups chicken broth (fat removed)

from broth granules)
4 Tbs. Flour
1/2 tsp. Salt (optional)
1/3 cup dry sherry (optional)
1/4 tsp. rosemary
Recipe
Preheat oven to 350*F. Arrange chicken in a 9-inch by 13-inch baking pan that has been sprayed with non-stick coating. Arrange artichoke hearts and mushrooms between chicken pieces. Sprinkle pepper and paprika over chicken. In a covered container shake flour with 1/3 cup of cold broth. In a saucepan, add flour/broth mixture, remaining
broth, salt (optional), dry sherry (optional), and rosemary. Heat on medium, stirring constantly until thickened. Pour over chicken and bake uncovered for 40 50 minutes. Yield: 6 servings
