To make this dish, you'll start by cooking fettuccine according to package directions. While the pasta is cooking, you'll cook thinly sliced chicken strips in a large nonstick skillet until no longer pink. The chicken is then removed and kept warm while you cook the vegetables, including broccoli, mushrooms, and tomatoes, adding garlic for extra flavor.

The star ingredients, artichoke hearts, are then introduced to the skillet, along with salt and oregano, heating everything through for a well-seasoned dish. A simple but effective sauce is created by combining flour with reduced-sodium chicken broth and white wine, which is then stirred into the pan and cooked until thickened.

Finally, the parsley and reserved chicken are added back to the skillet, and the drained fettuccine is mixed in for a perfect marriage of flavors and textures. A sprinkle of shredded Parmesan cheese on top adds a touch of indulgence to this otherwise healthy and hearty meal.
