Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the diced chicken thighs and season with salt and pepper. Cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pot and set aside.

  2. In the same pot, add the diced onion and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

  3. Stir in the diced carrots, chopped celery, sweet potato cubes, butternut squash, and Brussels sprouts. Cook for 5-7 minutes, allowing the vegetables to slightly soften.

  4. Add the dried thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir to coat the vegetables in the aromatic spices.

  5. Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a simmer. Add the quinoa to the pot, stirring well to combine.

  6. Return the cooked chicken to the pot and stir everything together. Cover and let the stew simmer for about 20-25 minutes, or until the quinoa is cooked and the vegetables are tender.

  7. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. If the stew is too thick, you can add more broth or water to reach your desired consistency.

  8. Serve the Easy Fall Harvest hot, garnished with fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness. Enjoy this comforting and nourishing dish with a slice of crusty bread or a side salad for a complete meal that perfectly captures the essence of fall.
