Special Precautions and Tips:
- Be sure to cook the chicken until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- If you don't have canned artichoke hearts, you can use fresh artichokes. However, they will take longer to prepare.
- You can use any type of goat cheese you like. If you prefer a milder flavor, use a soft goat cheese. For a stronger flavor, use a hard or aged goat cheese.
