    cheryl, my go-to meal is chicken breast with montreal chicken seasoning, sauteed in EVOO. then remove from pan, then i use 32 oz of Kitchen Basics chicken stock, pour in same pan used to cook chicken (don’t wash the pan) pour in 2 cans of artichoke hearts (cut in half), cut up roma tomatoes, add olives (optional) sprinkle a generous portion of reduced fat tomato basil feta cheese, let it simmer to thicken up for about 6-8 minutes then place the chicken back into the pan and cook for another 3-5 mins to heat the chicken through. you can either serve with pasta or rice – i’ve used the DeBoles organic spinach spaghetti pasta that’s made with jerusalem artichoke flour. making me hungry as i just typed that out!!!
