  • 2 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 4 6oz skinless, boneless chicken breasts
  • 3/4 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 medium yellow onion chopped
  • 1 cup carrot chopped
  • 2 tbsp fresh thyme chopped
  • 5 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 cup white wine
  • 8 oz kale stemmed and thinly sliced
  • 1 cup Chicken stock
  • 2 tsp Lemon zest
  • 2 15oz cans cannellini beans rinsed
  • 1 15oz can, diced tomatoes drained
  • 1 Tbsp unsalted tomato paste

Method
 

  1. Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle chicken with 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper. Add chicken to pan; cook 4 minutes per side. (chicken will not be cooked through). Remove chicken from pan.
  2. Add onion, carrot, thyme, and garlic to pan; sauté 5 minutes. Add wine; cook 2 minutes. Add kale; cook 3 minutes or until wilted. Stir in remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and remaining ingredients; bring to simmer.
  3. Add chicken; cover, reduce heat, and simmer 4 minutes or until done.

Notes

Sous vide method - cook chicken breasts in sous vide at 149° for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Use cooked chicken in first step reducing cooking time to long enough to brown chicken.
