Delicious and Creamy Chicken with Cabbage and Cannellini Beans

Chicken with Cabbage and Cannellini Beans

This succulent Chicken with Cabbage and Cannellini Beans is hearty, filling, and delicious! Just the right amount of ingredients to create this fantastic dinner. 

Can you cook Cabbage and poultry together?

Yes, you can! It all depends on the recipe. Vegetables like cabbage add lots of flavor to poultry and meat. Not all vegetables go well with meat or poultry. Adding the right amount and suitable vegetables will help you create a healthy and delicious dinner.

In cabbage, for example, the leaves are firm and easy to cook. Steamed, boiled, or raw, cabbage is packed with nutrients. Cabbage is high in fiber and contains powerful antioxidants. Another main ingredient in the recipe is the white beans. 

Cannellini beans are a source of plant-based protein and provide a smooth texture when cooked with other vegetables or meat. 

When cooking poultry, it is essential to cook it thoroughly to avoid salmonella. The safe internal cooking temperature from chicken is 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

I wouldn’t say I like to roast chicken with vegetables, especially as a sheet pan dinner. I prefer to pan-sear (lock in the juice) or precook the chicken and finish roasting it with vegetables in the oven.

Lastly, a Dutch oven is an excellent tool for making stew and cooking poultry. The heat is preserved, and your food is cooked at the same temperature.

How long should I marinate the chicken?

For this recipe, if you don’t have time, you can roast the chicken immediately. If you have time, marinate the chicken for at least 1 hour or overnight. It also does not matter if you choose to use chicken thighs instead of chicken legs. Or you can mix both thighs and legs in the recipe.

I chose a mixture of green seasoning, Noubess Hot Sauce, salt, lemon juice, and oil for the marinade. This combination is great for cooking chicken in general. You can also use chicken bouillon instead of salt for more flavor. But if you do, I would suggest adding regular water instead to chicken broth or stock.

Here’s the recipe. I hope you enjoy it!

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Place seasoned chicken on a prepared baking dish and roast for 45 minutes or until chicken is fully cooked.
  • In a large saucepan or dutch oven add remaining oil and sliced leek. Cook for 3 – 5 minutes while stirring. Remove from the pan and place on a plate and set aside.
  • Add the chopped tomatoes to the pan and cook until a sauce is formed. Add leek back to the pan with sliced onion and cabbage. Cook for at least 5 minutes under medium heat.

Notes

Add more chicken stock or broth if you want more sauce. Season to salt.
The chicken will be dark in color because of the balsamique vinegar.
