Ingredients
Directions
- Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
- Add the chicken thighs and brown them on both sides for about 5 minutes each.
- Once browned, remove them from the pot and set aside. In the same pot, toss in the chopped onion, garlic, carrots, and celery.
- Sauté these vegetables until they soften, which should take around 5-7 minutes.
- Next, add the diced potatoes, chicken broth, thyme, bay leaf, salt, and pepper, stirring everything together.
- Place the browned chicken thighs back into the pot, skin side up. Bring the stew to a boil, then lower the heat and cover.
- Let it simmer for 30-35 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
- Afterward, take out the chicken, shred the meat, and discard the skin and bones.
- Return the shredded chicken to the pot and give it a good stir.
- Taste the stew and adjust the seasoning if needed.
- Serve it hot, garnished with fresh parsley.
