Note
Ensure shrimp are peeled and deveined before cooking. If using frozen shrimp, thaw and pat dry completely to prevent steaming.
Artichoke hearts should be well-drained to prevent the rice from becoming soggy. Pat them dry with paper towels if necessary.
For a gluten-free version, ensure your chicken broth is certified gluten-free.
This dish can be assembled ahead of time and refrigerated. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave before serving.
Substitute fresh tarragon with dried if fresh is unavailable, but reduce the quantity by half as dried herbs are more potent.
