Directions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Prepare a 9 x 13 inch baking dish by spraying oil on the bottom and sides.

Wash 1 bunch of asparagus and trim the bottom 1/4 – 1/3 of the stalks and arrange in the bottom of the baking dish.
 
Place chicken over the asparagus in the dish. Then top with Marinated Cara Mia Artichokes (with the marinade) and sliced leeks over the chicken.

Pour the cup chicken stock into the bottom of the pan to add moisture while cooking. Sprinkle the entire dish generously with salt & pepper, oregano, thyme, basil, and garlic powder.

Cover with foil and bake in the oven for  30-35 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. Remove the foil and place the dish in the broiler for 3-5 minutes to brown the top of the dish.

This recipe was based on a recipe from The Fit Cookie

About Me

Cara Mia
Cara Mia brand was started by an artichoke grower co-op in 1955, in the “artichoke capital” of the world, Castroville, CA. The co-op opened as a freezer operator with the intent of providing consumers another means to enjoy the edible thistle all year around. The venture proved so successful that a marinating line was added in 1958. Soon sales of the marinated produce far surpassed the frozen line as consumers enjoyed the proprietary marinade that dressed the tender leaves. The Borges Group acquired Cara Mia and its proprietary spice mix/marinade recipe in 2001. Today Cara Mia is the #1 selling brand of marinated artichokes. Look for them, and the other Cara Mia marinated vegetable items, in the Produce Dept.
