The idea for these braised artichokes came from a couple of different sources. In Italy, a friend bought some lethal looking ones and was talking about how to prepare them.
A friend had posted pictures on Facebook of some roasted artichokes. They looked great, so I asked for the recipe. Roasting takes some time–plan ahead.
Anything with chicken, artichokes and olives is good in my book. This is easy and comes together in about 45 minutes, with only a plate and a pan to clean up.
The number of choices you have at the markets in France is amazing! After a few visits, you start to know who has what and and that’s where the fun starts.
