Ingredients

  • Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs 1 package, about 1 lb $6.49
  • Organic Green Cabbage 1/2 small head, about 4 cups sliced $1.10
  • Organic Carrot Bag, 16 OZ 3 carrots, sliced $1.69
  • Baby Bella Mushrooms 8 oz $2.79
  • Sweet Onion 1 small onion, sliced $1.43
  • Organic Garlic, 3 CT 2 cloves, minced $2.89
  • Organic Thyme 1 teaspoon leaves $2.49

Instructions

  1. Prep 1 package Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs ($6.49, about 1 pound), 1/2 small head Organic Green Cabbage ($1.10, about 4 cups sliced), 3 carrots from the Organic Carrot Bag ($1.69), sliced, 8 ounces Baby Bella Mushrooms ($2.79), 1 small Sweet Onion ($1.43), sliced, 2 cloves Organic Garlic ($2.89), minced, and 1 teaspoon Organic Thyme ($2.49). Also gather 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil, 1/2 cup water or broth, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper from pantry.
  2. Season the 1 package Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs with 3/4 teaspoon salt and black pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat on the stove. Brown the chicken thighs 4 to 5 minutes on the first side and 2 minutes on the second side, then transfer to a plate.
  3. Add the sliced 1 small Sweet Onion, sliced 3 carrots, and 8 ounces Baby Bella Mushrooms to the same skillet with the remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil. Cook on the stove for 5 to 6 minutes until the onion softens and the mushrooms release their moisture.
  4. Stir in the 2 cloves minced Organic Garlic, 1 teaspoon Organic Thyme, and the 1/2 small head sliced Organic Green Cabbage. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and black pepper. Cook 2 to 3 minutes, tossing, until the cabbage starts to wilt.
  5. Stir in 1/2 cup water or broth and 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard. Nestle the browned chicken thighs back into the skillet over the vegetables. Transfer the skillet to a 425°F oven and roast 12 to 15 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the cabbage is tender.
  6. Rest the chicken thighs for 3 minutes. Spoon the cabbage, carrots, onion, and mushrooms onto plates, then top with the roasted chicken thighs and any skillet juices.

Health notes: About 540-640 calories per serving. Strong protein content from chicken thighs, plus fiber and vitamin C from cabbage and carrots. For a lighter plate, serve with extra cabbage and less oil.

Drink pairing: Reach for Pinot Noir if you want a silky red with the earthy mushrooms, or pour a dry Rosé for a versatile, family-friendly pairing that keeps the dish feeling bright.
