Chicken and Barley Stew #soup #dinner

Aaaaand we're back to stew. Since here and there, it's only important to life. The climate went dim (yes!) so it was certainly time for some warming, filling, (and solid!), Chicken and Barley Stew. Produced using scratch with a lot of veggies and delightful herbs to go around, you will have a hard time believing how simple this feast is to make.

Very thick and filling, this stew significantly profits by the utilization of chicken thighs instead of chicken bosoms. Try not to misunderstand me, in the event that you have extra chicken bosom, don't hesitate to utilize that! Chicken and Barley Stew is an extraordinary method to go through scraps incidentally. In any case, in case you're going hard and fast, I've included how to begin without any preparation with chicken thighs in the formula. I discover the utilization of thighs in a chicken stew includes more flavor and thickens up the soup a bit.

I simply LOVE a one pot feast. Cook everything in a similar pot and BOOM! Chicken and Barley Stew with less wreckage. Nothing gets simpler than that.

Chicken and Barley Stew recipe - Warming, filling and healthy stew made from scratch with chicken thighs, fresh veggies and herbs.

INGREDIENTS

• 1 1/2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs
• 1 tablespoon dried italian seasoning
• 1 small yellow onion, diced
• 3 large carrots, peeled and diced
• 3 celery ribs, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 3 small potatoes, diced
• 8 cups chicken broth
• 1/4 cup white wine or white wine vinegar
• 1 cup raw barley
• 1 tsp fresh thyme, minced
• 1 tsp fresh rosemary, minced
• 1 tsp fresh sage, minced
• Fresh parsley, roughly chopped for garnish
• Salt and ground black pepper

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Pat chicken thighs dry with a paper towel. Season both sides of each thigh liberally with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
2. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a dutch oven or large stew pot over medium high heat. Add the chicken and cover the pot with a lid. Cook for 5-7 minutes until golden brown on bottom, remove lid and flip chicken thighs over. Cook for another 5-7 minutes, covered with lid, again until golden brown and cooked through (temperature reaches 165°F). Remove to a bowl, shred with two forks, and set aside.
3. Drain excess fat out of pan, and when back on heat, pour half of the wine into the pan. Deglaze the pan by scraping the browned bits off the bottom of the pan (keeping it in the pan!).
4. If necessary, add another tablespoon of olive oil to the pan. Saute onion, carrot and celery in pan over medium high heat and until softened, about 7 minutes. Add garlic and sauté for 30 seconds to 1 minute, until fragrant.
5. Deglaze the pan again with the rest of the white wine (or white wine vinegar), scraping up browned bits on the bottom of the pan.
6. Add the potatoes, shredded chicken, barley, chicken broth, thyme, rosemary, and sage to the pot. Stir to combine and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, cover with a lid, and cook for about 30 minutes, until chicken and potatoes are tender. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
