Equipment

Ingredients
  

chicken

  • 1.2-1.3 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs should be 4 thighs total
  • 1 -1 ¼ teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil avocado oil is better for searing but olive also works
  • ½ cup chicken bone broth can use regular chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon grated parmesan
  • juice from ½ lemon use ¼ lemon if sensitive to lemon flavor

veggies

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or avocado oil
  • 4-6 cloves minced garlic adjust to your garlic preference, I used 6 as I love garlic!
  • 1 small onion - finely sliced
  • 1 zucchini - finely sliced i like golden zucchini
  • 2 cobs corn with corn removed from cob
  • ½ cup finely chopped basil
  • 3 tablespoons grated parmesan
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon italian seasoning or sub a combo of thyme and oregano
  • juice from ½ lemon use ¼ lemon if sensitive to lemon flavor
  • 15 oz drained butter beans or other white bean from a can of beans

Instructions
 

  • Pat chicken thighs dry and season on both sides using the seasonings under the chicken section.
    Heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium high heat.
    Add chicken thighs and sear for 5-7 minutes on each side, until chicken is browned reaches an internal temp of 170-175. Remove chicken thighs from pan and set aside.
  • Turn heat to low and let pan cool down for a few minutes. Add bone broth, lemon and parmesan to the pan and stir to combine. Simmer until reduced by about 25%, this will only take a few minutes. Remove sauce from pan and set aside.
  • Turn heat back up to medium, Add another tablespoon of oil to the skillet and add onions. Cook for 5 minutes. Add all remaining ingredients under the vegetable section to the pan and cook for about 8-10 minutes, until veggies are cooked through.
  • Divide out veggies and top with chicken. Drizzle over sauce and enjoy.

Notes

I recommend using a mandoline to get the zucchini and onion finely sliced.
This makes 3-4 servings depending on how hungry you are.
