Chicken and Artichoke Bake (use this as the starter for Greek Chicken and see the ingredient notes below)

1 (14 ounce) can water-packed artichoke hearts, well drained and chopped (OR a small jar of marinated artichoke hearts)

3/4 C grated Parmesan cheese

3/4 C mayonnaise

1 dash garlic powder or 1 garlic clove, minced

4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves

Preheat oven to 375*

Spray an 11x7 inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray or lightly oil with a pastry brush.

Salt and pepper the chicken breast halves and place in the dish.

In a bowl, combine the artichoke hearts, Parmesan cheese, mayonnaise and garlic; mix well.
