Ingredients

How to make it

  • Fry bacon or pancetta in heavy saucepan.
  • Add oil if needed. Add the celery, carrot, and onion.
  • Saute the vegetables until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • 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.
