- 2 tablespoons the best quality olive oil
- 3/4 cup walnut halves
- 4 large boneless chicken thighs, about 1 1/2 pounds, cut in 2-inches pieces
- About 1/2 pound salami or kielbasa, sliced into 1/2-inch pieces
- 1 large onion or 2-3 shallots, chopped
- 6 garlic cloves, diced
- 8 oz Crimini mushrooms, small left whole, larger halved
- 2 fresh thyme sprigs
- 1 teaspoon dried sage + 5-6 leaves, julienned for garnish
- 1/2 cup dry white wine such as Sauvignon Blanc
- 1 cup homemade or low-sodium prepared chicken broth
- 1 large carrot, halved and cut in half-moon pieces
- 1 15-ounce can white beans, well rinsed and drained
- Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Method
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat; add the oil; then add walnuts and cook, stirring until golden, fragrant and crisp, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
- To the same skillet, where you now have walnut infused oil, add chicken in a single layer; add a large pinch of salt and pepper; cook until browned. Turn ones, about 3 minutes per side. Using a slotted spoon transfer to a plate.
- Add wine, increase heat to high and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits, until the wine has reduced by about half, 2 to 4 minutes.
- Add broth, salami, the reserved beans, carrot and chicken; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, about 15-20 minutes. Now is a good time to taste and add salt and pepper, if needed.
- In a food processor pulse a few times the walnuts until coarsely crushed. Serve hot, top each portion with walnuts and the fresh julienned sage.
- To make ahead; cool to room temperature; cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days. Reheat in a preheated to 350 degrees oven for about 20 to 30 minutes in a oven proof dish, covered with a lid and then top with walnuts and sage.
