Pan-Cooked Chicken Breasts With Artichoke Gravy - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/4 cup butter
1/3 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 chicken breasts
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1 (1 1/4 ounce) package chicken gravy mix (I used Knorr brand roasted chicken mix)
8 ounces artichoke hearts, quartered

Preparation

Melt butter in a wide pan on the stove.
While the butter is heating, mix flour, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
Rinse then dry chicken breasts, pound them thin, then coat each breast with the flour mix; shake off excess flour.
Place chicken in the pan and cook over medium-high heat for 6 minutes, turning once 3 minutes in, at which point add the garlic and artichokes.
While chicken etc. is cooking, prepare gravy according to instructions in a separate bowl.
Make sure to move the garlic and artichokes around frequently to prevent them from burning; if garlic starts to burn, turn the heat down a tad.
When the above 6 minutes are up on the chicken etc., pour gravy into the pan
Cook chicken for 8 more minutes, turning once 4 minutes in, stirring gravy from time to time.
Remove from heat, place chicken breasts on dinner plates then spoon artichokes & gravy on top. If serving with mashed potatoes, put gravy on those too.
Guten Appetit!
