Chicken

Method

Preparing the Chicken

  1. 1

    Season the Chicken

    Sprinkle the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.

  2. 2

    Pan Roast the Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for about 6-7 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the pan and set aside.

Making the Sauce

  1. 3

    Prepare the Sauce

    In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and add the butter. Once melted, add the capers and artichoke hearts. Sauté for 2-3 minutes.

  2. 4

    Add Liquid

    Pour in the chicken broth and lemon juice. Scrape the bottom of the pan to deglaze, and let the sauce simmer for 5 minutes until slightly reduced.

  3. 5

    Finish the Sauce

    Stir in the chopped parsley and return the chicken to the pan. Coat it in the sauce and let it warm through for 2 minutes.

Cooking the Pasta

  1. 6

    Cook the Pasta

    In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the pappardelle pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente, about 8-10 minutes.

  2. 7

    Combine and Serve

    Drain the pasta and add it to the skillet with the chicken and sauce. Toss to combine and serve immediately.
