Chicken stewed with olives and beans
Description
To prepare this hearty dish, sauté chicken thighs and vegetables, then bake the dish in the oven covered with a lid or foil. I'm cooking for two people, but you can increase the quantity of ingredients depending on the number of family members and guests. You can use chicken thighs or drumsticks. Use canned or previously cooked beans. This dish is complete on its own, but it also pairs perfectly with a side of rice, couscous, or millet.
