CREAMY CHICKEN AND CAULIFLOWER


yield: 4 SERVINGS

prep: 20 MINUTES

cook: 35 MINUTES

total: 55 MINUTES

✅INGREDIENTS

5 cups cauliflower florets

2 tablespoons olive oil

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

6 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs

2 tablespoons unsalted butter

2 medium shallots, diced

3 cloves garlic, minced

2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme leaves

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

1 3/4 cups chicken broth

1/4 cup dry white wine*

4 cups baby spinach

1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan

1/2 cup half and half

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Lightly oil a baking sheet or coat with nonstick spray.

Place cauliflower in a single layer onto the prepared baking sheet. Add olive oil; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Gently toss to combine.

Place into oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.

Season chicken thighs with 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.

Melt butter in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Working in batches, add chicken, skin-side down, and sear both sides until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side; set aside. Drain excess fat, reserving 2 tablespoons in the Dutch oven.

Add shallot, and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 3-5 minutes. Stir in garlic and thyme until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Whisk in flour until lightly browned, about 1 minute.

Stir in chicken broth and wine, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the Dutch oven. Return chicken to the Dutch oven.

Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer, covered, until chicken has completely cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 175 degrees F, about 15-20 minutes. Remove chicken and keep warm.

Stir in spinach, Parmesan and half and half until the spinach has wilted, about 3 minutes. Stir in cauliflower until heated through, about 1-2 minutes. Return chicken to the Dutch oven.

Serve immediately.

NOTES

*Chicken broth can be used for white wine as a non-alcoholic substitute.
