ITALIAN CHICKEN WITH WHITE BEANS



Italian Chicken With White Beans image

I'm making this tonight-posted for the nutrition info. From the Sonoma Diet. The original recipe calls for cannellini, but I have Great Northern so that's what I'm using.

Provided by greengirl512

Categories     Chicken Thigh & Leg

Time 23m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup chopped onion
1 cup chopped carrot
1/2 cup thinly sliced celery
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 1/2 teaspoons dried Italian seasoning, crushed
1 (15 ounce) can great northern beans
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Instructions.
  • In a 3 1/2- or 4-quart slow cooker combine onion, carrots, celery, and garlic. Add chicken; season with salt and pepper. In a medium bowl stir together tomatoes, chicken broth, wine, and Italian seasoning. Pour over mixture in cooker. I'll bet you could make this with dry beans also, adding them here and maybe increasing the broth a little.
  • Cover and cook on low-heat setting for 6 to 7 hours or on high-heat setting for 3 to 31/2 hours. Turn off cooker and stir in beans. Cover and let stand for 10 minutes.Unless, of course, you added dry beans at the beginning-then skip this step.
  • Using a slotted spoon, move chicken and vegetables to a serving dish, saving the cooking liquid. Drizzle chicken and vegetables with cooking liquid until moist. Top with Parmesan cheese.

TUSCAN CHICKEN CUTLETS WITH WHITE BEANS

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/4 pounds thin-cut chicken cutlets
Kosher salt and coarsely ground pepper
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary
1 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for frying
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 15-ounce cans cannellini beans, undrained
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Season the chicken all over with salt and pepper. Mix the flour with 2 teaspoons rosemary and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper in a shallow bowl. Put the buttermilk in another shallow bowl. Spoon 2 tablespoons buttermilk into the flour mixture and stir to make clumps. Dip the cutlets one at a time in the flour, then in the buttermilk, then back in the flour again to make a shaggy coating. (You should use all of the flour mixture.) Set the chicken aside on a plate.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil, the garlic and remaining 1 teaspoon rosemary in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook until the garlic is lightly toasted, about 1 minute. Stir in the cannellini beans and their liquid, 3/4 cup water and a pinch of salt. Adjust the heat to maintain a steady simmer and cook until slightly thickened, 10 to 12 minutes; add a splash of water if the mixture is too thick. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat and cover to keep warm.
  • Meanwhile, heat 1/4 inch olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches if necessary, add the chicken and cook until deep golden brown and crisp, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a rack set on a baking sheet and sprinkle lightly with salt.
  • Stir the parsley into the beans and divide among plates; drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Add the chicken to the plates. Serve with lemon wedges.
