Artichoke Stuffed Chicken

1/2 to 1 can, water packed, artichoke hearts,

drained and chopped 
4 ounces package cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup parmesan cheese 
4 to 6 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 tsp garlic salt or however much to your preference
4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts, flattened with a 
meat mallet
Italian bread crumbs

Combine all but the chicken and bread crumbs together. 

Fill each flattened chicken breast with some of the 
mixture, roll up and coat with Italian bread crumbs.
Add a little melted butter to the coated chicken 
before baking.

Bake in a cooking dish at 350 degress for about 
40 minutes or until chicken is done. 
For an even easier dish, you can layer the flattened 
chicken in a dish and spread the mixture over it.
Top with bread crumbs and melted butter and bake.

These are great to use ground chicken and make appetizers as well.

Chicken with Tomato/Cucumber Salsa

Chicken with Tomato/Cucumber Salsa

• 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1/4 teaspoon coriander
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 plum tomatoes, diced
• 1 cucumbers, peeled, seeded and diced
• 3 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
• 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
• 1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper

In a small bowl, combine the oregano, cumin and coriander and 1/4 tsp of the salt. Rub the chicken with the spice mixture, drizzle with oil and cook in a non-stick skillet on medium heat.

While the chicken is cooking, make the salsa : combine the tomato, cucumber, parsley, vinegar, pepper and remaining salt. Refrigerate salsa till chicken is done. After chicken is cooked, spoon salsa over chicken and serve.

I actually made 10 times the amount of the spice mixture and put it in an extra salt shaker so when I make this chicken, I just shake a little of the spices on while it is cooking.
