4 Stars=Loved it! Thanks for a quick, yet sophisticated tasty meal. I used 16oz bowtie pasta, doubled the artichokes & chicken. halved-3/4 the onion. Didn't have the olives (but hubby hates 'em anyway). My kids liked it well enough; they thought the pasta and chicken were tasty, although it was harder for them to "choke" down the marinated artichokes and other superfluous vegetables; they did really enjoy the flavors those things imparted onto the pasta. I wondered if the oil from the artichokes would be too much, but it was just fine-not too much at all. We will definitely make this again. Thanks for the recipe!

I live in the Pittsburgh area but am originally from Montreal and have lived in several states over the years. I am mom to a daughter 15 and a son 11. I have a degree in foods and nutrition and am currently working at a local kitchen store. I am a passionate baker and collector of cookbooks- especially baking and dessert books and community cookbooks but I have thousands of various types. My family are my biggest fans but I love to bake for friends and my kids school events as well. I enjoy traveling, eating out, reading and spending time at home . My pet peeve is people who won't share recipes- I mean, come on... which is why I love recipezaar- it's a giant recipe swap!
