Ooh la la! Chicken in a pot with a touch of Herbs de Provence.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Don’t you just love the hint of lavender in herbs de provence? I do and in this pretty easy recipe I’ll have you wanting to get out and buy the spice if you don’t already have it.<\/p>\n

The recipe instructions for this dish are different than the pictures I took the night I made it because some things I should have done in a different order to get the results I wanted. End results of my dish just as delicious but I browned my chicken a little more with my torch. You don’t want to have to do that.<\/p>\n

I love one pot dishes and especially this one because after getting it in the pot you pop it in the oven and just forget about it until ready to serve. Great dish to have around the holidays and any type of pasta will be delicious. Hopefully we will be in our new home early January and I will be cooking up more mouth-watering recipes since I will have a bigger kitchen; more space to spread out and also to have friends come over and cook.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

So just a few early notes on this recipe. The chicken should be browned first and removed from the pan and added later; that way you get more color on the skin.. Another change is to put the pasta on the bottom of the pan; my spaghetti started drying out and I had to rearrange the ingredients moving it under the chicken.<\/p>\n

Any other vegetables you may like would work in this recipe; squash, potatoes maybe instead of pasta, mushrooms, even eggplant would be delicious. If you try some variations or have ideas of other ingredients, please leave a note in the “comment” section at the bottom of this post.<\/p>\n

BLAST FROM THE PAST:<\/strong><\/span> Pork Belly, Apple and Maple Glazed Crostini<\/a> would be a great little appetizer for your holiday get-togethers. <\/p>\n

I was going to use a whole chicken but decided to just do some bone-in chicken thighs and you can add just about any vegetable you have on hand.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This is where my directions are a little off. I saut\u00e9ed my onions and celery first but in the directions below I’m telling you to brown your chicken first and then remove and do the vegetables.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

So after you get your celery and onions saut\u00e9ed, add in the carrots and saut\u00e9ed just a couple minutes more then add your brown chicken thighs on top and pour in the liquid. *Note: another change (sorry) about the spaghetti.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

So the other “big” change is after you have sauteed your chicken thighs and removed from pot and then added your vegetables and sauteed them, put the spaghetti or pasta on the bottom of the pot and top with the chicken and vegetables and then pour your broth and seasoning on top of that. My pasta started drying out a little and I had to rearrange during the baking process.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This was delicious and I decided next time I might throw in some yellow squash or zucchini towards the end of baking time.<\/p>\n
