Very simple, tasty recipe. I used boneless chicken breasts because that's what I had on hand. I also topped the dish with grated parmesan for the last 7 minutes. A good dinner with easy preparation.

I prepared this with a few substitions because of necessity. I used Cavenders Seasoning which has all of the above named in it and a Pinot Grigio wine. Because we are dieting I opted for healthier skinless, boneless chicken breasts. I would recommend this to everyone. It is a great way to introduce artichokes to your family and have them well received. One more addition to the recipe, after 35 minutes I took the chicken out and sprinkled mozzarella cheese on top and finished baking for the last 10 minutes. This was an excellent dish.

Quick, easy, tasty. Be sure to use the dry sherry for a richer-tasting sauce. I used chicken breasts and served over penne pasta. Yummy!!!

Very pretty dish. I made a few adjustments to the recipe. I used fresh artichokes, herbs and garlic and I used chicken broth instead of the tomato sauce. I used boneless skinless chicken breasts and added a red onion. It was outstanding. Thanks for the great idea!

This was easy and good. I worried a little b/c the sauce tasted very "alcoholic" as I poured it over the chicken, but it tasted just right after baking. I also added mozzarella towards the end of baking time. Thanks!
