Florentine Chicken Stew made with boneless chicken breasts, celery, carrots and onions, spinach, white wine, chicken broth, Dijon mustard and cannellini beans.
I love when the weather starts to get cooler so I can make comfort foods for dinner like this Florentine Chicken Stew. It’s so simple to prepare, as is most one pot meals, and such a time saver on those busy nights when you’re running in three different directions. You can even make it ahead of time (the night before) or prepare it in the slow cooker for a quick, heat-and-eat meal the family will love!
This chicken stew consists of boneless chicken breasts, your basic mirepoix of celery, carrots and onions, spinach, white wine, chicken broth, Dijon mustard and cannellini beans. All things I have on hand in my pantry and refrigerator at all times. I like how you can make this in one pot for less clean up as well. ~Enjoy!
