How to Make Mediterranean Skillet

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet (or Dutch oven) over medium heat.
  2. Add 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces, and season generously with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until browned on all sides (about 8-10 minutes).
  3. Add 1.5 lbs small red potatoes, quartered; 4 cloves garlic, minced; 1 medium onion, chopped; and 1 red bell pepper, chopped. Season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  4. Continue cooking for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until vegetables begin to soften.
  5. Pour in 1/2 cup dry white wine (or chicken broth) and bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook for 2 minutes.
  6. Stir in 1 tablespoon dried basil, 1 tablespoon dried oregano, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes, and 1/2 teaspoon paprika.
  7. Cover the skillet and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 25-30 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the chicken is cooked through, stirring occasionally.
  8. Remove from heat and stir in 5 ounces fresh spinach until wilted.
  9. Serve immediately with crusty baguettes and aioli (optional).
