Equipment
- dutch oven pot
Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp pepper
- 1 Tbsp Herbs de Provence seasoning
- 6 chicken thighs (boneless, skinless)
- 1 shallot (diced)
- 2 garlic cloves (minced)
- 1 cup fresh spinach
- ⅛ cup fresh parsley
- 1 Tbsp butter
- 2 cans cannellini beans (undrained 15.5 oz)
- ¾ cup chicken broth or white wine
Instructions
- Using a large, heavy-bottomed Dutch oven pot or a heavy, high-sided skillet, place on medium-high heat on the stovetop. Add olive oil and a tab of butter. Once they have melted, add the chicken thighs and sprinkle salt and pepper.
- Brown the chicken thighs on each side for 3 to 4 minutes. Once the chicken thighs are browned, remove them and set them on a plate.
- Add the chopped shallots and minced garlic to the pot and stir them with the chicken drippings and browned pieces. Cook for one minute. Then, add the white wine or chicken broth and herb de Provence seasonings to the pot. Simmer ingredients for a minute to two minutes. Then, add the beans to the pot and stir to combine. Return the chicken to the pan and cook for another 20-25 minutes on medium-low heat or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F when tested with a meat thermometer. When the white bean sauce has thickened, add the spinach and let it wilt down.
- Remove from heat and add sprigs of parsley. Serve with toasted sourdough bread.
