Ingredients
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 chicken breasts ~1lb, cut into 1″ pieces
- salt and pepper
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 3/4 cup water
- 15 oz can quartered artichoke hearts drained then roughly chopped
- pinch red chili pepper flakes
- 1/2 lb gluten free penne
- 2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 2 Tablespoons drained capers
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
- 1 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup lightly packed fresh basil leaves chopped
Instructions
- Heat oil in a large, nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper then add to skillet and saute until golden brown, 2-3 minutes — chicken does not need to be cooked all the way through. Add garlic then saute for 30 more seconds.
- Add chicken broth, water, artichoke hearts, red chili pepper flakes, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to the skillet then bring mixture to a boil and add pasta. Stir to combine then place a lid on top, turn heat down to medium, and simmer for 2 minutes less than the package directions advise for al dente.
- Remove lid then add lemon juice, capers, and tomatoes. Turn the heat up to high then reduce sauce for 2-3 minutes. Remove pan from heat then stir in parmesan cheese and basil. Let sit for 2-3 minutes to thicken then serve.
