I’ve been making this Artichoke Chicken recipe since college. With only a couple of ingredients, it tastes like artichoke dip on top of chicken. This chicken dinner is baked in the oven and is one of those easy weeknight dinners.

ARTICHOKE CHICKEN

(originally posted 2015)

I have a babysitter that is not only great with my kids but she completely cleans my house. Babysitter goldmine, right? I always clean before babysitters come over anyway but no matter how clean I get it, she’ll find a junk drawer to organize or laundry to do.

I don’t want her to think I’m a total slob so I try to clean as much as I can before she comes and wash every single piece of laundry I can find – which lasts for about 2 minutes before there’s already dirty laundry with a house full of 7 people.

Remember me, the worst folder ever? She has military grade folding skills.

Last time we went out, I was sure that there was nothing she could possibly find to clean or fold and I came home to my game closet organized (she said she couldn’t help herself) and about 10 items of clothing washed and folded – one being a pair of my underwear, folded in a very small tight square.

I guess I should get over it and embrace the help. What does all that have to do with this chicken? Nothing.

Except that I used to make this 8 years ago when we lived in a tiny apartment with a lot less kids and a lot less to clean.

Think of your favorite Spinach artichoke dip on top of chicken minus the spinach. The flavor is delicious. The cream sauce keeps the chicken from getting dry and the ingredients although simple, are delicious.

I only made 4 breasts this time so I had leftover topping and stuck it in the oven until bubbly and served it with baguettes. So versatile.

You can use chicken cutlets if you like. Serve with garlic bread and a green salad. Store leftovers in the fridge.

This was wonderful. I added diced mushrooms and sun dried tomatoes.

I was hoping to find the NA (Sodium) amount listed for the Artichoke Chicken recipe. That would be very helpful to know, as I for one am on a very low-sodium diet.
Would it be possible to include this information in the “Nutrition Information” of recipes?
- Christy Denney — Mon, 25 Jul 2022 @ 01:59:59 EDT Reply
  The nutritional info is listed at the bottom of the recipe.

Is this freshly grated Parmesan or the powdery type of grated Parmesan?
- Christy Denney — Fri, 30 Apr 2021 @ 00:25:06 EDT Reply
  Fresh would be better but I’ve used both.
Janice — Wed, 21 Apr 2021 @ 15:51:25 EDT Reply
This is so amazing. I’ve been making this for years. It’s one of my go to recipes.
Great for entertaining. Make it ahead of time and put it in the fridge. Just pop it in the oven when ready. 😋 I like to make meals that have leftovers that taste great. And this chicken and artichoke recipe is a big leftover hit.

  I like your idea of making this ahead of time and popping it in the oven. Do you have to let the baking dish come to room temperature, or can you just put it in the oven when the dish is cold?

Another winning recipe for our family. The topping tastes like a delicious artichoke dip. I added jalapenos because we like a little spice with everything.

This is so good! I’m doing a cleanse so I changed it a bit. I used Dijon mustard instead of mayo and Pecorino Romano for the parmesan. It was 2 thumbs up from everyone in my house!

Made this last night – fantastic. I;m always watching our calories so I made it with light mayo and it was still great. So simple and flavorful. Served it with wild rice and vegetables. Thanks for what will be a regular in our meals.

Rave reviews – even from the picky 12 year old! Thank you for an easy, delicious, weeknight meal – I roasted some tomatoes with olive oil, S&P while the chicken cooked, drizzled them with balsamic, and served with warm bread for those who still eat bread – half the house does, the other doesn’t. It was a hit all the way around. I wouldn’t hesitate to serve this to guests!

HI! I know this is an older post… I’m new. Do you think it would still work without the cheese (I just discovered I’m allergic to whey/dairy but this sounds soo yummy!).

Hi, Christy! Is the “grated parmesan cheese” the kind in the bottle you shake out, or is it the kind in a bag like Kraft. I see this ingredient all the time in recipes. but never sure which one to use. Are they interchangeable? Thanks and happy cooking!!!!
- Christy Denney — Thu, 15 Jun 2017 @ 23:47:39 EDT Reply
  Yes, so grated is the one in the can. If it’s in a bag like Kraft it will usually say shredded.
Jessica — Thu, 16 Mar 2017 @ 19:11:52 EDT Reply
I made this for dinner tonight, and it was fantastic!
The whole family loved it and it was super easy. I might add spinach next time or some breadcrumbs. Or both!

Jeanne Morton — Tue, 07 Mar 2017 @ 06:06:18 EST Reply
Just had this for dinner. Easy and really delicious! And the chicken was so moist. I hate dry, overcooked chicken. The topping keeps it moist and when it looked perfectly golden, it was done. I did let it sit for 5 minutes before serving it. Excellent recipe. Thanks!

Tammy — Sun, 05 Feb 2017 @ 12:36:53 EST Reply
This sounds sooo delicious! My only problem is I get so paranoid that the chicken isn’t all the way cooked through that I overbake it and then I have dried out chicken. I really want to try this though. Any advice for me?
- Christy Denney — Tue, 21 Feb 2017 @ 22:50:41 EST Reply
  Ahhh. No. Just don’t overbake. Have one test piece to cut into so you know for sure.

    Thanks. I’m gonna try it for sure.

Could you use sour cream instead?? No mayo at the moment.

  Sour cream will melt a little more but it will work.

How would you cook the artichoke chicken in the crock pot? When would you add the topping of the mayo, artichoke, etc?
