Simplest Chicken and Leek Stew by Jamie Oliver (Food & Wine)

This time of year when the evenings are starting to get crisp and cool, I'm always looking for a new (and easy) soup or stew recipe. I found this Jamie Oliver recipe on Food & Wine's website and made it last night. The short review: I'm adding this one to my "go-to" recipe list!

Note from the Food & Wine Test Kitchen

This stew recipe is greater than the sum of its parts, owing largely to the natural affinity between the chicken and leeks, fresh thyme, and Dijon mustard. Leeks are sweeter and more subdued than regular onions, adding a sophisticated depth to this cozy meal — don't be tempted to sub them out!

 INGREDIENTS YOU'LL NEED:

  • extra-virgin olive oil

  • leeks

  • cremini mushrooms

  • 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

  • All-purpose flour, for dusting

  • chicken stock or low-sodium broth

  • fresh chopped thyme

  • sour cream (I used yogurt)

  • Dijon mustard

After reading some of the comments on Food & Wine I did add 1/3 cup of white wine in preparing this recipe.
