Ingredients

    Potatoes:

    • 1-1/2 pounds new potatoes, quartered or cut into eighths
    • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
    • 3 garlic cloves, minced
    • 2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves, or 1 teaspoon dried
    • Salt and freshly ground black pepper

    Chicken and Artichokes:

    • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
    • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces
    • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
    • 2 cans (14 ounces each) artichoke hearts, quartered and drained
    • 1/2 cup chicken broth
    • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
    • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
    • 1/2 cup pitted, brine-cured black olives, such as kalamata, chopped

    Directions

  • Potatoes:

    • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
    • Lightly oil a large sheet pan.
    • Combine the potatoes, oil, garlic, thyme, and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl. Toss well.
    • Spread out the potatoes on the sheet pan in a single layer.
    • Roast for 25 minutes, until browned all over, shaking the pan occasionally for even cooking. Set aside.

    Chicken and Artichokes:

    • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
    • Sauté the chicken in the oil until white and firm, 6 to 8 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
    • Add the artichoke hearts, chicken broth, and lemon juice to the skillet. Cook until the liquid in the pan reduces and is slightly thickened, about 2 minutes.
    • Mix in the potatoes. Garnish with the parsley and olives. Serve at once.
