Step 1
Slice the 2 chicken breasts into cutlets and season with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering.
Step 2
Add the chicken and cook until golden and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
Step 3
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil, 2 sliced zucchini, and 1 can drained artichoke hearts. Cook, stirring, until zucchini is tender and lightly browned, about 5 minutes.
Step 4
Return the chicken to the skillet. Squeeze the juice of 1 lemon over everything and sprinkle with 1 tsp dried rosemary. Stir and cook for 1 minute until fragrant and heated through.
Step 5
Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley if you have it.
