SAUTEED CHICKEN BREAST WITH ARTICHOKES AND PEPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat; add the olive oil. Season the chicken with salt and pepper to taste. Lay the chicken skinned side down in the skillet and cook, turning once, until golden, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to a baking dish or roasting pan and bake just until firm to the touch, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the onion, garlic, thyme to the skillet and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Cook, stirring occasionally, until brown, about 5 minutes. Add the artichokes and peppers and cook until brown as well, about 3 minutes. Add the vermouth and stir with a wooden spoon to scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Simmer until the vermouth is syrupy, then add the broth and bring the mixture to a full boil. Simmer until the sauce thickens, and season with salt and pepper. Whisk in the butter and add the parsley. Pour the sauce over the chicken, and serve.

• Fit a large pot with a steamer rack; add water until it reaches just below rack. Place artichokes in steamer, stem-sides up. (If necessary to fit, trim top third from each with a serrated knife.) Cover and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and steam, adding more water as needed, until the tip of a knife slides in and out of stems easily, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove artichokes; when cool enough to handle, remove leaves and reserve for another use. Scoop out and discard chokes. Cut hearts into halves or quarters.
