Amazing Olive and Artichoke Chicken
This olive and artichoke chicken is so easy and delicious!
If you want to change up the regular chicken dinner, put this recipe on your menu. Olives and artichokes pair well together. My family ate every bit of this and there were no leftovers. My hubby went back and finished what little bit was left, they loved it! This is a low carb, trim healthy mama s recipe. I served ours with a side salad and the chicken and sauce on top of mashed cauliflower.
Have a pressure cooker, instant pot, or foodi?
This is also a pressure cooker recipe that can be easily adapted to a crockpot if desired. I have been wanting to come up with more pressure cooker recipes. So many ladies don’t have time to get the crockpot going but have time to make a pressure cooker dinner. If you want to make this in your crockpot (your instant pot and foodi are also slow cookers), just brown everything in your skillet and transfer to your crockpot and cook on low 4-5 hours or high 2-3 hours.
Eating healthy doesn’t need to be boring.
This recipe is so delicious and easy, I wouldn’t hesitate to serve this to company or a potluck. It is also a perfect recipe for busy weeknights. This is also one of my recipes that I prepped in the totes. When I meal prep like this, it makes busy weeks so much easier. If your family likes olives (I know not everyone is a fan), add this to your next menu, you won’t be disappointed. Here is a link to my meal prep.
