- 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
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.
