This artichoke chicken bake has only five ingredients, including the chicken breasts, and tastes like baked chicken smothered with hot artichoke dip. It's divine.
Holy cow. This artichoke chicken bake is one of my new favorite baked chicken recipes. It has only five ingredients, including the chicken breasts, and it basically tastes like baked chicken smothered with hot artichoke dip. I mean, how can it not be amazingly good?
I love this artichoke chicken recipe because it can be thrown together last minute. It takes about 45 minutes from start to finish, and if you're like me, you generally have all the ingredients on hand. (Yes, I keep artichoke hearts in the pantry at all times.) What I didn't have on hand was garlic pepper but now that I've used it in this recipe, I'm always going to keep it stocked in my spice cupboard.
I would say this is a family-friendly artichoke chicken bake but my two youngest aren't into artichoke dip and their older sister is currently vegetarian. But Nathan and I had no problem eating it and the delicious leftovers. And I don't usually do leftovers.
I've seen variations of artichoke chicken that have sliced sauteed mushrooms, and since I adore mushrooms, I may have to try that next time!

5 ingredients caught my attention. I am a huge advocate of easy and simple cooking with easily available ingredients. This fits the bill right. Beautiful bright photos too.

I have made this dish for years. Yummy. I use boneless chicken thighs (instead of breasts)doesn’t dry out. And I sprinkle paprika on top! Noticed recipe calls for garlic pepper, not garlic powder, is this a misprint. I use garlic powder. Great creamy, rich dish.
Emily Hill
I bet chicken thighs would be so good and a touch of paprika sounds delish! My version does call for garlic pepper, not garlic powder, but either one would be good!

No, you can buy garlic pepper. I use it on a lot of things. I bought a big bottle of it at BJ's.
Natalie

Could you use miracle whip instead of mayo?
Emily Hill
I've honestly never tried. I'm not a fan of Miracle Whip. But if you like it in your normal artichoke dip, it could be good!
Rosanna
Making this tonight. but we have dairy allergy so i subbed out mayo and used Vegenaise and nutritional yeast instead of Parmesan yum!!
Emily Hill
That sounds delish!
