New Recipe

Ok- so I tried this recipe tonight...really really good and it is SUPER healthy for you too! It looks kind of complicated at first with all the ingredients but once you start going it is really easy to put together. It says it makes 4 servings but we had plenty of leftovers with us eating (as many of you know Dustin eats a lot) so... enjoy!!

CHICKEN WITH CHUNKY VEGETABLE SAUCE

Ingredients
2 Tbl flour
4 medium skinless, boneless chicken breast halves (about 1 lb)
1 cp finely chopped onion
1 Tbl olive oil
2 cloves garlic minced
1 14oz can diced tomatoes, undrained
1 14oz can artichoke hearts, drained and halved
1/3cp reduced sodium chicken broth
dash of black pepper
2 Tbl chopped pitted ripe olives
1 Tbl snipped fresh oregano or 1 tsp dried oregano
2 cps hot cooked rice

1. Place flour in a shallow dish. Dip chicken in flour to coat. Set aside.
2. In a large skillet, cook onion in hot oil over medium heat for 3 minutes. Stir in garlic; push mixture to sides of pan. Add chicken. Cook 4 minutse, or until brown, turning once. Add tomatoes, artichokes, broth, and pepper;stir.
3. Bring to a boil; reduce heat. Simmer, covered, 10 minutes, or until chicken is tender and no longer pink. Remove chicken.
