- Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Stir in the tomatoes with their juices, chicken broth, basil and bay leaf.
- Add the chicken thighs; press to submerge.
- If desired, add parmesan rind.
- Bring the cooking liquid to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer gently uncovered until the chicken is almost cooked through, turning the chicken over and stirring the mixture occasionally, about 25 minutes.
- Using tongs, transfer the chicken to a work surface and cool for 5 minutes.
- Discard the bay leaf.
- Add the beans to the pot and simmer until the liquid has reduced into a stew consistency, about 10-20 minutes.
- Discard the skin and bones from the chicken. Shred or cut the chicken into bite- size pieces. Return the chicken meat to the stew.
- Bring the stew just to a simmer.
- Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Ladle the stew into serving bowls and serve with crusty bread.
