File this under “easy week-night meal”. This fire roasted tomato & artichoke chicken takes 10 minutes to prep, about 45 to bake and is both delicious and healthy! Insert praise hands! It’s also gluten free and could easily be dairy free as well. I like to make it on Sunday evening because it’s enough to feed my family of four dinner plus leaves me leftovers to have for lunch during the week.

This tomato-artichoke-chicken-bake is a great meal all on it’s own, but because it has such a wonderfully flavorful sauce it’s also really good over pasta, zucchini noodles, rice or cauliflower gnocchi (have you tried that at Trader Joe’s yet? It’s delicious!).
It’s just as good cold too! So I like to use the leftovers to make a Greek salad!
You may remember one of my goals this year is to cook 4 nights a week, so having easy recipes that call for simple ingredients (that I usually have on hand) and don’t take much time to prepare really come in handy. How about you? Do you have a go-to chicken recipe that you love to make?
I wonder if I could substitute something for the artichoke hearts (don’t like)? Other than that, it looks tasty! I usually cook about 4 nights or cook one or two nights something that will give us left-overs for another meal. Tonight is leftover lasagna! I’ve also been using my crock pot more and I going to purchase a new one. Have you tried “baking” sweet potatoes in the crock pot – yummy! I was leary, but they were great! Grilled or baked chicken breasts (we like the thin ones) and roasted veggies and rice are one of our favorites!
