Creamy Chicken and Artichokes

I got this recipe from my friend Laura's blog and she got it here.

 Ingredients:
16 oz boneless, skinless chicken breast tenders
salt and pepper
2 T butter (Imperial 1/3 less fat)
1/8-1/4c c all-purpose flour
1 c fat free, reduced sodium chicken broth
1 can artichoke hearts, drained
garlic
4 oz fat free cream cheese
1 T lemon juice

Directions:
Season chicken with salt and pepper. (I also used The Melting Pot's Garlic and Wine Seasoning.)
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place flour in a shallow dish. Dredge chicken in flour, shaking off any excess. Add chicken to pan; cook 3 minutes on each side or until cooked through. Remove chicken from pan; keep warm.
Add broth, garlic and artichokes to pan, scraping pan to loosen browned bits; cook 2 min.
Add cream cheese and stir until melted. Remove from heat, stir in lemon juice and chicken.
Makes 4 servings.
