Introduction

This is a Jamie Oliver recipe, adapted by the wonderful website Serious Eats.

Though the recipe does not call for it., I brown the chicken in small batches and remove them from the Dutch oven before adding the vegetables, then I re-add all the chicken at the same time as the flour. But if you don't have time, the method in the recipe is wonderful.

Ingredients

    2 stalks celery
    2 medium onions
    2 carrots
    Olive oil
    1 heaped tablespoon all-purpose flour
    One 14-ounce can of diced tomatoes
    Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
    3 sprigs fresh thyme
    1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs
    2 cups white wine

Directions

Procedure
1. If using the oven to cook your stew, preheat to 350°F.
2. Trim the ends off your celery and roughly chop the stalks. Peel and roughly chop the onions. Peel the carrots, slice lengthwise, and roughly chop.
3. Put a Dutch oven on a medium heat. Put all of the vegetables and your chosen herb into the pan with 2 lugs of olive oil and fry for 10 minutes. Add your meat and flour. Pour in the booze and canned tomatoes. Give it a good stir, then season with a teaspoon of sea salt (less if using table salt) and a few grinds of pepper.
3. Bring to a boil, put the lid on, and either simmer slowly on your cooktop or cook in the oven for the one and a half hours. Remove the lid for the final half hour of simmering or cooking and add a splash of water if it looks a bit dry.
4. When done, your meat should be tender and delicious. Remove any bay leaves or herb stalks before serving, and taste it to see if it needs a bit more salt and pepper.
