    Dera…what’s the recipe for chicken jerusalem?

  15. Chicken Jersusalem- off the top of my head has artichoke hearts, sundried tomatoes, a gravy/sauce that can be made with mushroom soup or Hollandaise sauce but I use a sundried tomato alfredo sauce by Classico. You used boneless chicken breasts. It is good with mashed potatoes or rice.
