To Prepare Savory Braised Chicken Stew:
- Heat oil in a heavy-bottomed Dutch oven.
- Add chicken thighs and sear for 8 minutes or until deep golden brown on all sides.
- Remove chicken and set aside. Add onions, carrots, and celery and cook until soft and light brown. Add garlic and cook until fragrant.
- Stir in tomato paste and cook for 5 to 6 minutes or until lightly golden. Cover and cook for 25 minutes.
- Add stock, bay leaves, and scrape any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cover and cook for 25 minutes.
- Add potatoes, salt, pepper, parsnips, and browned chicken and cook uncovered for 15 to 18 minutes or until potatoes are tender and liquid is reduced by a quarter. CCP-Minimum internal temperature should be at least 165 degrees F. (Instantaneous).
- Combine water and cornstarch in a small bowl until well-combined. Stir in slowly and return to a simmer to thicken the stew.
- Before service, stir in lemon juice, thyme, and parsley.
NOTE: Remove bay leaf before serving. - When ready to serve, spray cut side of rolls with cooking oil spray. Toast rolls until well-marked and golden brown. Slice each half roll into 4 points.
- As needed, ladle 1 ½ cups of the stew into a serving bowl. Enjoy immediately with 2 points of the toasted roll!
