Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch chunks
- kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium sweet onion, diced
- 3 carrots, peeled and diced
- 2 ribs celery, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- ½ cup dry white wine
- 2 ½ cups chicken stock
- 4 sprigs fresh thyme
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 pound red potatoes, cut into 3/4-inch chunks
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves
Instructions
- Season the chicken with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of pepper.
- Heat olive oil in a large stockpot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add chicken in batches and cook until browned, about 6-8 minutes. Set aside the chicken.
- Add onion, carrots, and celery to the pot. Cook until tender, about 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Stir in minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Whisk in flour and tomato paste until lightly browned, about 1 minute.
- Pour in white wine, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
- Add chicken stock, thyme, bay leaves, and the browned chicken. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until chicken is very tender, about 20 minutes.
- Stir in the potatoes and continue to simmer until the potatoes are tender and the stew thickens, about 15 minutes. Discard thyme sprigs and bay leaves.
- Stir in parsley and season with salt and pepper before serving.
Notes
Ensure chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
For added flavor, consider adding a splash of lemon juice before serving.
This stew can be made ahead and reheated, allowing the flavors to meld even more.
