Braised Chicken Thighs with Sweet Potatoes<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Serves: 4.<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
Ingredients<\/div>\n
    \n
  • 4 skinless, bone-in chicken thighs<\/li>\n
  • 1\/4 tsp. black pepper<\/li>\n
  • 2 Tbsp. olive oil<\/li>\n
  • 1\/2 cup dry white wine<\/li>\n
  • 6 large cloves garlic, minced<\/li>\n
  • 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-1\/2 inch cubes<\/li>\n
  • 2 medium onions, peeled and cut into medium wedges<\/li>\n
  • 2 medium green bell peppers, chopped<\/li>\n
  • 1\/2 – 3\/4 lb button mushrooms (cut into half if large)<\/li>\n
  • 1 teaspoon dried marjoram leaves<\/li>\n
  • (optional) 1\/2 cup no-salt chicken bullion (or no-salt chicken broth)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n
    \n
    Instructions<\/div>\n
    \n
      \n
    1. Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Sprinkle pepper on both sides of each chicken thigh.<\/li>\n
    2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil, then add the chicken thighs, meaty-side down. Brown the chicken on each side, about 4 minutes per side. After chicken has browned, remove it from the pan.<\/li>\n
    3. Add the wine to the pan and bring to a boil, stirring the bottom of the pan to loosen any brown bits. Add the garlic to the wine and mix well. Then return the chicken to the pan.<\/li>\n
    4. Add sweet potatoes, onions, and green peppers on top of the chicken. Then put the mushrooms on top, sprinkle with the marjoram. Optional: pour the chicken bullion over the top.<\/li>\n
    5. Bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until chicken is done and potatoes are tender, about 40 minutes. (If you don\u2019t use the optional chicken bullion, you should check the skillet occasionally and add a little water if the pan is drying out.)<\/li>\n
    6. If desired, you can thicken the sauce with corn starch before serving. (Remove the chicken and vegetables from the skillet. Mix 1 Tbsp corn starch in 1\/8 cup cold water and add it to the sauce in the pan, stirring until well mixed. Bring mixture to a boil and boil a minute or two until sauce has thickened some.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

      Use cooked chicken prepared using fresh chicken with only 3% sodium per serving (instead of chicken that has been infused with a high-sodium broth).<\/p>\n

      Note that sodium percentages depend on which daily reference you use. The estimated 84 mg of sodium per serving implies that one serving of this recipe provides:
      \n\u2013 3% of the U.S. FDA daily reference value for sodium for a 2,000-calorie diet that includes 2,400 mg sodium, or
      \n\u2013 6% of the American Heart Association recommendation of 1,500 mg sodium per day, or
      \n\u2013 8% of the M\u00e9ni\u00e8re\u2019s diet recommendation of 1,000 mg sodium per day.<\/p>\n
