The garlic-y, crunchy breadcrumb goodness of a stuffed artichoke meets tender chicken with rich porcini mushroom and mustard flavor baked to perfection in a casserole. Bone-in chicken pieces give this casserole extra flavor and juiciness. We love this casserole with just a simple salad as a side to complete the meal.

3 bone-in, skinless chicken breasts | |
3 bone-in skinless chicken thighs | |
2 oz Smoked Porcini, Shallot and Mustard Blend | |
2 cans artichoke hearts, rinsed and drained | |
Juice of half a lemon | |
2 cloves garlic | |
2 Tbl Arbequina Extra Virgin Olive Oil, plus more for drizzling | |
2 Tbl unsalted butter | |
1 cup panko bread crumbs | |
Salt & Black Pepper | |
1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese |
1. | Heat oven to 350°F. |
2. | Rub chicken pieces on both sides with the Smoked Porcini, Shallot and Mustard Blend. Place in a baking dish. |
3. | Nestle the artichokes around the chicken pieces. Drizzle the artichoke hearts with the lemon juice. |
4. | In a skillet, heat 2 Tbl Arbequina Extra Virgin Olive OIl and 2 Tbl unsalted butter. Saute garlic until fragrant but not browned. Lower heat and add the Panko. Stir the Panko until lightly browned. Add salt and pepper to taste. |
5. | Mound the Panko over the artichokes leaving the chicken pieces exposed. Sprinkle the parmesan cheese over the panko. |
6. | Drizzle the entire dish with a little more Arbequina Extra Virgin Olive OIl. Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes. Uncover and bake allowing the chicken to brown a bit until the thigh meat is cooked through. When pierced, the juices should run clear. |
