Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 6 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs about 2 1/2 pounds
  • ¾ teaspoon salt, divided
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • ⅓ cup dry white wine or reduced sodium chicken broth
  • 2 15-ounce cans cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 pint grape tomatoes
  • ½ cup reduced sodium chicken broth
  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh oregano, plus more for garnish
  • ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper
  • ⅓ cup finely shredded Parmesan cheese 1 1/2 ounces

Method
 

  1. Gather all ingredients.
  2. Heat oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Add chicken to skillet. Cook until browned, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Remove from skillet.
  3. Add onion to the skillet. Cook and stir over medium heat until tender, 5 minutes.
  4. Add garlic to skillet. Cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  5. Pour in wine and stir to break up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Simmer until wine has nearly evaporated, 2 to 3 minutes.
  6. Add beans, tomatoes, broth, oregano, crushed red pepper, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt  to the skillet. Bring to a boil. Return chicken to the skillet. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer until chicken is done (175 degrees F or 80 degrees C), tomatoes begin to break down, and the bean mixture is creamy, about 20 minutes.
  7. If desired, lightly mash some of the beans in the skillet to absorb some of the liquid.
  8. Garnish with Parmesan cheese and additional oregano.
