- Add the thinly sliced spring onions, scallions, or to the bowl.
- Add the capers, lemon juice, sliced artichoke hearts, and sliced tomatoes.
- Season with salt and pepper, and gently toss until mixed.
- Coat baking dish with 1 Tablespoon of olive oil. Place chicken breasts in the baking dish so that they do not overlap.
- Divide the basil-artichoke mixture between the 6 chicken breasts and lightly press it down to cover the breasts.
- Drizzle the remaining 3 Tablespoons of olive oil over the chicken breasts.
- Bake the chicken, uncovered in a 350 F oven, for 30 minutes, until firm.
- Turn the oven onto “Broil” and broil the breasts on the top rack until the vegetables are browned slightly (about a minute). Watch closely to avoid burning.
- Place chicken on a warm serving plate and drizzle with any juices from the pan. Garnish with lemon and fresh basil.
