Meanwhile, make sauce: Put 1 tablespoon butter in a 1-quart saucepan and melt over medium heat. Remove hot butter from heat and stir in flour until smooth. Gradually stir in wine and chicken broth. Return to heat and cook 5 minutes longer, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon until mixture just comes to a boil. Reduce heat to low. With a wire whisk, blend in sour cream. Add cheese, mustard, salt and pepper to wine sauce, stirring constantly. Remove from heat when cheese is melted; set aside. Heat artichoke bottoms or hearts gently in a small saucepan over low heat; drain. Arrange chicken breasts in a shallow baking dish. Arrange artichoke bottoms around chicken. Spoon wine sauce over all and run under the broiler to heat thoroughly and brown (about 5 minutes). Sprinkle with parsley and serve. Makes 8 servings.
