Time 1h3m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 egg
2 tablespoons milk
½ cup dry bread crumbs
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves, pounded to 1/4-inch thickness
cooking spray
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 lemon, juiced
1 clove garlic, minced, or more to taste
¼ cup white wine
2 plum tomatoes, chopped
1 (14 ounce) can artichoke hearts
10 Kalamata olives, pitted
¼ cup chopped fresh basil
1 (4 ounce) package crumbled feta cheese
½ cup chicken broth

Steps:

  • Whisk egg and milk together in a bowl. Place bread crumbs in a separate bowl. Soak chicken breasts in the egg wash and coat with bread crumbs; place on a plate.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat a baking pan with cooking spray.
  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry chicken until browned, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to the prepared baking pan and sprinkle with lemon juice.
  • Cook garlic in the hot skillet until fragrant, no longer than 30 seconds. Pour in white wine and scrape the bottom of the skillet. Add tomatoes, artichoke hearts, and olives. Cook and stir until heated through, about 3 minutes. Add basil; cook until wilted, about 3 minutes more.
  • Pour artichoke mixture over chicken in baking pan and top with feta cheese. Pour chicken broth over everything and cover the pan with aluminum foil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
