Ingredients

  • 4 (4-ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
  • Salt and ground black pepper
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 1/2 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 (14-ounce) can artichoke hearts, quartered
  • 1/4 cup drained capers
  • 1 cup quick-cooking brown rice
  • 1/2 cup frozen lima beans

Directions

Place chicken in zip-top bags and pound with a meat mallet or rolling pin until 1/4-inch thick. Remove chicken from bag and season all over with salt and black pepper. In a shallow dish (or plastic bag), combine flour, lemon zest, paprika, and garlic powder. Mix well. Add chicken and turn to coat. Remove chicken from flour mixture and shake off excess flour.

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and saute 2 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. Add lemon juice, wine and chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Simmer 5 minutes, until chicken is cooked through and sauce thickens. Add artichoke hearts and capers and simmer 1 minute to heat through.

Cook rice according to package directions, adding lima beans at the beginning of cooking process. Serve chicken and sauce with rice.

    Loved this recipe. I've made chicken pacata many times, but never with the artchoke hearts. I make mine to serve with wide noodles and my family loves it! Good job Robin !!

    I agree with most reviewers: this is delicious and easy. Many say because this is 'easy' and quick it is a great weeknight dinner. I would say that this is delicious enough to be served to company. The addition of the lima beans is wonderful and is the ingredient that sets this recipe apart. As my grandmother used to say, ' have a light hand'. Be patient in the cooking time. I have found that 3 minutes per side is rushing it a bit. BTW... this recipe is terrific without rice. Get your carbs + more from the lima beans !

    I agree with previous reviewer, I would take the chicken out of the pan, then scrape up the flavor bits from bottom of pan and add liquids; 1/2 of lemon juice would be good. This would also give the artichokes and capers enough room to be heated well, then add the chicken back in. Excellent recipe and came together in 20 minutes!
