Ingredients

  • 1 yellow onion, diced small (about 2 cups)
  • 3 celery ribs, diced small (about 1 1/2 cups)
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced (about 2 tbsp)
  • 8 oz carrots, thinly sliced (about 3 carrots)
  • 28¼ oz boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1 in pieces
  • 4 tbsp all-purpose flour, divided
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 24 oz baby potatoes, halved
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme
  • 1/2 tsp dried rosemary
  • 1/2 tsp dried sage
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped, to serve (optional)

Method

  1. Toss the chicken pieces with 2 tbsp of the flour and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  2. Heat the butter and olive oil in a large heavy pot over medium-high heat. Brown the chicken in batches for 3-4 minutes, then set aside (it will finish cooking in the stew).
  3. Add the onion and celery to the pot and cook for 5 minutes until softened. Add the carrots and garlic and cook for 2 minutes more.
  4. Sprinkle in the remaining 2 tbsp flour and stir for 1 minute. Gradually pour in both broths, stirring to keep the stew smooth, and bring to a simmer.
  5. Add the potatoes, dried parsley, thyme, rosemary, sage, salt and pepper. Return the chicken and any juices to the pot.
  6. Cover and simmer gently for 25-30 minutes until the potatoes are tender and the chicken is cooked through, stirring occasionally.
  7. Taste and adjust the seasoning, scatter with fresh parsley if using, and serve hot.
