In the same skillet add olive oil and onion, saute until lightly softened; about 3 minutes. Be sure to pick up the chicken bits left in the pan.
In the same skillet with the onion, add chicken broth, chicken, tomatoes, artichokes and spinach pesto. Top with Parmesan Cheese. Cover with a lid and cook until vegetables are soft and chicken is cooked all the way through; about 7 minutes.
Place chicken on a plate, top with vegetables and spoon sauce from the pan over the top. You can also add a little bit of balsamic glaze for some extra fun flavor!
