- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 6 boneless skinless chicken thighs
- 2 tablespoons olive oil divided
- 1 cup diced sweet onions
- 2 cups peeled cubed butternut squash
- 2 cups peeled cubed russet potatoes
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
Place flour on plate and lightly dredge chicken in flour.
Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a large pot or Dutch Oven over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook 3-4 minutes, flip and cook additional 3-4 minutes, or until brown on both sides. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Heat the remaining 1 Tbsp. oil in pot. Add onion and cook 5 minutes, or until softened. Add squash, potatoes and garlic and cook 5 minutes. Stir in broth, oregano, salt and pepper. Add chicken back to pot, tucking it into vegetables. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low and simmer, covered, 20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through. Sprinkle with additional chopped oregano, if desired.
