Antipasto Baked Smothered Chicken

(7)

We like the touch of heat that pepperoncini give to this briny chicken, but if you really want to turn up the spiciness, swap them for hot cherry peppers.

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided

  • cup chopped marinated artichoke hearts

  • cup chopped salami

  • ¼ cup chopped pepperoncini

  • 2 tablespoons red-wine vinegar

  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano, plus more for garnish

  • 1 pound chicken cutlets

  • ½ teaspoon ground pepper

  • 2 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese, thinly sliced

Directions

  1. Preheat broiler to high.

  2. Mix 2 tablespoons oil, artichoke hearts, salami, pepperoncini, vinegar and oregano in a medium bowl.

  3. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large broiler-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle chicken with pepper and add to the pan. Cook until starting to brown, about 3 minutes. Turn the chicken over and top each piece with the artichoke mixture and cheese. Transfer the pan to the oven and broil the chicken until the cheese is browned and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the chicken registers 165 degrees F, 3 to 4 minutes more. Serve the chicken with any pan drippings and oregano, if desired.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
