Lemon Artichoke Chicken
Moist, juicy chicken thighs decadently seasoned and served over tender roasted artichoke hearts. This dish hits a ton of flavor notes yet it’s such a breeze to prepare.

- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tsp dried thyme
- 2 tsp dried parsley
- 1 tsp saffron threads
- Juice of 1 lemon
- Salt and pepper to taste

- Preheat oven to 425 and spray a large baking dish with nonfat cooking spray.
- Place chicken and artichoke mixture into baking dish, and roast uncovered for about 30 minutes. Then cover with foil, and roast for another 15 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes before serving.
