Artichauts à la barigoule is a classic Provençal braise that combines fresh artichoke hearts with aromatic vegetables, herbs and white wine. In this recipe, we sear chicken thighs on the stovetop and while they finish cooking in the oven, we used canned artichokes to put together a simplified barigoule that serves as both a vegetable accompaniment and a flavorful sauce. For subtle lemony notes, we simmer strips of zest with the artichokes. A Y-style vegetable peeler is the best tool for removing zest in strips from the fruit, but try to take only the yellow peel, as the white pith underneath is bitter. Serve with warm crusty bread.

Tip

Don’t use marinated artichoke hearts for this recipe. The seasonings will overpower the other ingredients.

Light and easy Tuesday night main
Good main that is ready quickly after a quick stop off at the store. There are a couple of downsides, mainly that crisping the chicken skin resulted in a lot of splatter in an unventilated apartment kitchen. Maybe sacrificing the super crisp skin for straight oven roasting would be easier. Served alongside smashed potatoes.

Delicious
I was a bit low on artichokes so added some sliced cremini mushrooms along with the carrot and onion. To cut down on fat a bit I started the chicken skin side down in cold non-stick skillet (Scanpan) and it worked beautifully, crispy skin, less fat and less splattering! Final dish was a tad too acidic for us so when making again would reduce the lemon juice to 1 Tbsp. Served with orzo cooked in chicken stock.

Blew Them Away. . . and It was Quick. . .
I had two bottles of artichokes in my pantry, and guests were coming over in a couple of hours. Made this for them and it turned it so well, they each had two pieces of chicken. . . fabulous. Will make again.

why does the skillet have to be oven safe if it's not going into the oven?
