Antipasto Baked Smothered Chicken
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
- ⅓ cup chopped marinated artichoke hearts
- ⅓ cup chopped salami
- ¼ cup chopped pepperoncini
- 2 tablespoons red-wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano, plus more for garnish
- 500g chicken cutlets
- ½ teaspoon ground pepper
- 2 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese, thinly sliced
Instructions
Step 1
Preheat broiler to high.
Step 2
Mix 2 tablespoons oil, artichoke hearts, salami, pepperoncini, vinegar and oregano in a medium bowl.
Step 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.
Step 4
Cook until starting to brown, about 3 minutes. Turn the chicken over and top each piece with the artichoke mixture and cheese.
Step 5
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.
Step 6
Serve the chicken with any pan drippings and oregano, if desired.
