Ingredients
  

Vegetables

  • 1 medium yellow onion
  • 3 ribs celery
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 0.5 lb carrots sliced
  • 1.5 lbs baby potatoes halved

Chicken and Broth

  • 1.75 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups vegetable broth

Fats and Flour

  • 4 tablespoon all-purpose flour divided
  • 2 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Herbs and Spices

  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 0.5 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 0.5 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 0.5 teaspoon dried sage
  • 0.25 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley optional

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Dice the onion and celery, mince the garlic, slice the carrots, and cut the baby potatoes in half before you begin.
  • Cut the chicken thighs into 1-inch pieces. Sprinkle 2 tablespoon of the flour over the chicken and toss until the chicken is evenly coated.

Cooking

  • Add the butter and olive oil to a large pot. Heat the butter and oil over medium until they are hot and sizzling.
  • Add the flour-coated chicken to the pot with the butter and oil and allow the chicken to brown on all sides. Remove the chicken to a clean bowl with a slotted spoon.
  • Add the onion, celery, garlic, and carrots to the pot and continue to sauté until the onions are soft.
  • Add the remaining 2 tablespoon flour to the pot and continue to sauté over medium for about two minutes more.
  • Return the browned chicken to the pot. Also add the potatoes, parsley, thyme, rosemary, sage, pepper, chicken broth, and vegetable broth. Stir to combine.
  • Place a lid on the pot and allow it to come up to a boil. Once it reaches a boil, remove the lid and turn down to medium-low. Simmer for about 30 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
  • Taste the stew and add salt if needed. Add a tablespoon of fresh chopped parsley if desired, and serve hot.
