    I began making this recipe a few years back, and adapt it as the seasons change, switching out the vegetables and also adjusting cuts of chicken, using everything from boneless skinless breasts to bone-in, skin-on thighs. It’s one of those one pan recipes that’s easy to modify and hard to mess up, and can even be made with leftover cooked rice you already have on hand by adjusting the amount of broth you add. cutting green garlic on a wooden cutting board I’ve gotten back into the habit of visiting the farmer’s market, and on a recent trip picked up young garlic, also known as green garlic, and some gorgeous heads of broccoli, bundles of heirloom carrots and the freshest, sweetest sugar snap peas I’ve tasted in awhile. So into the pot these all went, along with the usual sliced onion and a few sprigs of thyme, the herb I happened to have on hand this week, but make sure to use whichever poultry herb you happen to have, including rosemary or sage.fresh broccoli, red onions, green garlic, carrots and thyme on a wooden cutting board Sauteing everything up in the pan before baking gives the chicken that gorgeous brown coloring, and also helps to soften up the veggies a bit and get all the flavors melding together nicely. Plus, it makes the house smell like home and puts one in the perfect mood to eat. If using precooked rice, make sure to pull back on the chicken stock, only adding about a cup to help keep the veggies and chicken moist while cooking. Too much more that that and the rice will get way too soggy. I’ve used leftover white rice as well as rice pilaf, and while the white rice was fine, the rice pilaf did hold up better and was a lot more flavorful. chicken and vegetables in a red dutch oven, with wooden spoons and a plate of thyme to the side I originally adapted this from a Tyler Florence book of baby recipes, and he recommends chopping up into fine pieces or pureeing a portion of the ingredients together and serving as baby food, while leaving the rest in tact to serve to mom and dad. Pretty ingenious way to get your kids used to the varying flavors of home cooked grown up food from a very young age. Obviously though there’s no need to do all that if everyone eating at home has a full set of teeth and a digestive track that’s moved beyond the complexities of pureed pears and green peas. Just serve up as is and enjoy only having one pot to clean. chicken, vegetables and rice being served with a wooden spoon onto a blue plate.

    • In a dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook on each side till browned, working in batches if necessary, about 7-10 minutes total.
