I am not sure if I have mentioned it before but I absolutely love the Saving Dinner series of cookbooks, e-books, podcasts, website, etc. by Leanne Ely. I signed up to get daily articles and recipes sent to my email for free. When I received this recipe recently, I knew it was something I wanted to try. Our family loved it! I have a subscription to the Saving Dinner Menu Mailer and it has been a great help getting my weekly menu plan and grocery list together. Check out the website and enjoy the recipe!
Herb Braised Chicken Thighs Serves 6
3 tablespoons flour 3 teaspoons paprika 1 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme 1 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano 3/4 teaspoon black pepper 12 skinless chicken thighs 1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil 2 cups (2-inch-thick) sliced carrots 2 large onions, cut into wedges 2 1/4 cups low sodium chicken broth 3/4 cup dry white wine 2 1/4 pounds small red potatoes, quartered
Combine first 6 ingredients (flour through pepper) in a large zip-top plastic bag. Add chicken; seal bag, shaking to coat.
Heat oil in a Dutch oven or large pot over medium heat. Add chicken and remaining flour mixture to pan; cook 3 minutes on each side or until lightly brown. Add carrot and onion; cook 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Add broth, wine, and potatoes; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer 35 minutes or until chicken is done and vegetables are tender.
Please tell me I could sub bone-in chicken breasts for this, if I cut in half? Why not, right? What do you think?
ReplyDeleteI am sure it would work with other cuts of chicken. Let me know how it works out!
