Categories     Chicken     Dinner     Casserole/Gratin

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 onion
4 cloves garlic
1 (15-ounce) can cannellini or Great Northern beans
8 bone-in skinless chicken thighs (about 3 pounds)
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Pinch crushed red pepper flakes
1 large sprig rosemary or 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1/2 cup dry red wine
1 (14-ounce) can chopped tomatoes
3/4 cup chicken broth
1 small head escarole or 4 cups baby spinach leaves (about 8 ounces)
1/2 cup freshly grated pecorino or Parmesan cheese (about 1 ounce)

Steps:

  • 1. Chop the onion; smash and peel the garlic. Rinse and drain the beans in a colander or strainer. 2. Heat a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Pat the chicken dry with paper towels and season all over with salt and black pepper. Add the oil to the Dutch oven. When the oil is hot, add the chicken skinned (rounded) sides down, and brown, in batches if necessary, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a platter when done. 3. When all of the chicken has been browned, reduce the heat to medium, add the onion, garlic, red pepper flakes and herbs; cook, stirring until the onions are slightly soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and cook until brick red, about 1 minute. Add the wine and use a wooden spoon to scrape up any brown bits that cling to the pan. Bring to a boil and cook until syrupy, about 1 minute. 4. Add the beans, tomatoes and chicken broth, and bring to a boil. Nestle the chicken pieces in the stew, adding to the pan any collected juices from the plate. Simmer the stew, uncovered, until the chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes. 5. Trim the escarole and tear the leaves into bite-size pieces. (If you're using baby spinach, there's no need to do this.) Wash the escarole or spinach and drain. Add the greens to the stew, cooking only until wilted, about 4 minutes. Stir in the cheese and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Serve in shallow bowls.

This stew is a little bit spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using less red pepper flakes if you don't like spicy food.

I'm a vegetarian, so I made this stew without the chicken. It was still delicious!

I'm not a big fan of stews, but this one was really good. The flavors were well-balanced, and the chicken was very tender.

I made this stew in my slow cooker, and it was so easy. I just threw all the ingredients in the slow cooker in the morning, and dinner was ready when I got home from work.

This Tuscan chicken stew was an absolute delight! The flavors were rich and complex, and the chicken was fall-off-the-bone tender. I served it over mashed potatoes, and it was the perfect comfort food for a cold winter night.
