Tonight's dinner was simple, delicious and oh so healthy. Gene looked so confused by the vegetables I was getting as he had never heard of them let along had eaten them. The Poule au Pot is a simple French way of boiling chicken with a richly flavored broth. Hopefully next year I will have all these vegetables growing in our garden and not just the carrots and onions.
You need:
6-8 chicken thighs
1 carton low sodium low fat chicken broth
4 carrots
15 pearl onions
1 shallot
4 cloves garlic
1 turnip, peeled & cubed
2 parsnips, peeled & diced
2 large leeks, chopped & rinsed very well (they can be gritty inside)
A dash of rosemary, thyme, sage & pepper
I turned my Ninja cooker to Stovetop High and seared the chicken 5 minutes on each side to brown the skin. Then, turn the Ninja to Oven and set it to 350 degrees. Add all other ingredients and our the lid on. Cook for an hour and 15 minutes or until chicken is cooked thoroughly. As it cooks it will reduce and leave a delicious broth that can be served over rice or egg noodles.
