A large pan lets the chicken and vegetables rest in one layer. Why is space so key? The heat circulates and the food browns to perfection. Baby artichokes are actually fully mature artichokes that are edible in their entirety. Unlike large artichokes, the leaves are soft and tender and there’s no choke to scoop out.
