BELLA BRAISED CHICKEN (flex)
Flex: 6 servings/5 points each
tsp unsalted stick margarine 2 ea onions, chopped 2 ea celery stalks, diced 1 ea carrot, diced 2 ea garlic cloves, minced 3 Tbsp all-purpose flour ¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper 6 ea 4 oz. boneless, skinless chicken breasts 1 Tbsp olive oil 1 ea 14 ½ oz. can diced tomatoes (no salt added) 1 c low-sodium chicken broth ½ c dry white wine 1 Tbsp minced parsley, plus more for garnish 1 tsp dried thyme leaves
(I use more vegetables because we really like them cooked this way!)
Preheat oven to 325º
In a large nonstick skillet, melt the margarine. Add the onions, celery, carrot, and garlic. Cook, stirring as needed, until vegetables softened, about 5 minutes. Transfer the vegetables to a sprayed 3-quart Dutch oven or casserole.
In a gallon-sized sealable plastic bag, combine the flour and pepper. Add the chicken; shake to coat.
In the same skillet, heat the oil. Add the chicken and brown 2 minutes on each side. Arrange the chicken on top of the vegetables. Return the skillet to the heat; add the tomatoes, broth, wine, parsley, and thyme. Cook, scraping up the browned bits from the bottom of the skillet, until the liquid comes to a boil; pour over the chicken. Bake, covered until the chicken and the vegetables are tender, about 1 hour.
