One Skillet Braised Chicken Thighs with Spinach and Cannelli

• 份量: 3 servings
• 准备时间: 10 minutes
• 总时间: 55 minutes

配料

1½ pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs (roughly 6 thighs)

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Kosher Salt

Fresh ground black pepper

1 small yellow onion (diced small)

3 large garlic cloves (minced)

28- ounce can diced fire roasted tomatoes

2 teaspoons dried oregano

½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

3 packed cups baby spinach (roughly torn)

1 15- ounce can cannellini beans (rinsed and drained)

For serving: (optional)

Fresh Italian parsley leaves (chopped)

Grated Parmesan cheese

步骤

Season the chicken thighs all over with salt and pepper.

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot and shimmering (but not smoking!), add the chicken thighs to the pan and cook until lightly browned on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side. (Be careful not to move the thighs for at least 3 minutes after you’ve added them to the pan, or the meat may stick to the pan and tear.) Transfer the browned chicken thighs to a plate and briefly set aside.

Reduce the heat to medium. Add the onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened and translucent. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

Stir in the diced tomatoes oregano, and crushed red pepper. Bring to a boil, then lower to a simmer.

Add the spinach and cook until just wilted, about 1 minute, then stir in the cannellini beans. Taste and season with a little salt if necessary.

Return the chicken thighs to the skillet. (Really nestle them in there, peeps.)

Cover and cook for 30 minutes until the chicken is very tender. Serve warm garnished with parsley and Parmesan if you’re feeling fancy.
