Happy Friday friends! Today's recipe is from another personal chef, Eat - A Personal Chef Service. I follow her blog and she always has wonderful recipes. What could be better, pasta, chicken, wine, mushrooms & artichokes. Thanks Chef for posting!
Have a great and safe weekend!
Enjoy :-)
Merlot Chicken with Artichokes and Mushrooms
serves 6
olive oil
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts - about 2 - 2 1/2 pounds, thinly sliced
1 medium onion, sliced
5 cloves of garlic, chopped
2 cups of mushrooms, sliced
1 can (14 ounce) fire roasted tomatoes
1/3 cup Merlot wine
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 can (14 ounce) artichoke hearts, quartered
3/4 cup green olives stuffed with pimientos
1 teaspoon dried basil
salt and pepper to taste
1 pound of spaghetti, cooked and drained
Parmesan cheese, shredded, for serving
Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat a large saute pan to medium high and add about 1 tablespoon of olive oil. When the oil begins to shimmer, add the chicken and quickly saute until just cooked through. Remove to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
In the same pan, add another tablespoon of olive oil and saute the onion for 4 - 5 minutes until they just begin to become translucent. Add the garlic and mushrooms and saute for 3 - 4 minutes. Add the tomatoes, wine and balsamic vinegar and simmer the sauce for about 6 - 8 minutes or until reduced by about a third. Stir in the artichokes, olives, and basil and continue cooking until just heated through. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Serve with hot spaghetti and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese.
