Categories     Chicken     Sauté     Low Carb

Yield Servings: 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients:
· 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
· 1/2 (14 ounce) can diced tomatoes with juices
· salt and pepper, to taste
· 1/4 cup Bella Cucinasun-dried tomato pesto
· 2 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
· 1 (14 ounce) can artichoke hearts, quartered
· 1/4 cup white wine · fresh basil, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preparation: Season both sides of the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat a skillet on medium-high heat, and add the olive oil until just smoking. Place chicken in the skillet and brown on both sides (about 3-4 minutes each side).Remove chicken from pan and set aside. Put garlic in the pan, and sear,until aromas begin to release (this will happen quickly, within 1 minute or so), and garlic turns golden brown. Take pan AWAY from the heat and add the wine. Scrape the browned bits from the bottom of the pan and let wine reduce for about 1 minute. Pour tomatoes into pan, and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Stir in pesto and artichokes. Return chicken to the pan, and cover.Lower heat to medium-low, and continue until chicken is finished cooking through, approximately 10 minutes.
