How to Make One Pan Chicken and Cabbage Stew

Cube your chicken breasts or thighs into bite sized pieces. Heat a Dutch oven over medium high heat. Add the avocado oil. Once the oil is hot but not smoking, add the diced chicken and seasoning. Sear for 2-3 minutes.

Next, add the diced onion and sauté until it is translucent. Then, add the tomato paste, stir well, and let the tomato paste caramelize for 2-3 minutes. Then, add the grated carrot and diced tomatoes with juice. Stir well.

Deglaze the pan with chicken bone broth, then add the chopped cabbage. Stir everything together and let the cabbage soften. Once it softens to your liking, check the seasoning once more and serve over rice. Option to add some freshly chopped scallions for an extra pop of freshness.
