Ingredients

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, 2 turns of the pan
3/4 pound bulk Italian hot sausage
3/4 pound, 1 package, andouille sausage, cut into 1-inch lengths on an angle
1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into large chunks
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 large onion, quartered and thinly sliced
2 carrots, shredded
3 to 4 ribs celery from the heart, thinly sliced
1 fresh bay leaf
2 (15-ounce) cans white cannellini beans
5 to 6 fresh sage leaves, thinly sliced
1 cup dry white wine
2 cups chicken stock
1/2 loaf baguette
3 tablespoons butter, melted
A handful fresh parsley sprigs, left whole
3 to 4 sprigs fresh thyme, left whole

Directions

Heat a Dutch oven over medium-high heat with extra-virgin olive oil. Crumble the Italian sausage into large pieces, add to Dutch oven and begin to brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the andouille and crisp at edges, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove browned sausages to a paper towel lined plate and add chicken, season with salt and pepper. Lightly brown chicken a couple of minutes on each side then add veggies and bay leaf, add more salt and pepper and cook 7 to 8 minutes more to soften veggies. Add sausages back to the pan along with the beans and sage. Deglaze with wine and stir in the stock.

Turn broiler on and set rack in the middle of the oven.

Coarsely chop the bread in food processor into large crumbs, remove blade and toss with melted butter (it melts in 15 seconds in microwave) and the parsley, thyme, salt and pepper. Cover the sausage and chicken with bread and set in oven to brown 2 to 3 minutes. Serve directly from the pot. Keep an eye out for that bay leaf and sprigs!

fantastic!!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Very easy and tasty. We had it for a couple of days in march and I can't wait till the fall to make it again. Next time I... won't put all the breadcrumbs on top I will do it individually. It makes a lot! YUM!Read more

Incredible dish
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Made without beans since neither my husband nor I like them. Used dried herbs instead of fresh. Wonderful the first night,... even better as leftovers. My husband thought this was one of the best dishes I ever made!Read more

Disappointed!
Rated: 2 stars out of 5

After all of the positive feedback I was surprised to find that I was very disappointed in this recipe. I used chicken breast... instead of thigh, and dried sage vs fresh (as I didn't have any on hand). My biggest complaint was that I felt it had a greasy flavor that I just couldn't get past (I drained the sausage and squished it between paper towles...). Not sure what went wrong but I won't do this again.Read more

OMG
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

My husband and I love this. I'm making it tonight for the second time. I used beef broth the first time by mistake - it was... awesome so I used the beef broth again. The topping is a must!! I thought it would be a pain to make - but it wasn't and was well worth it!Read more

One Pot Amazing!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

The perfect day to make this recipe is when it kinda' brisk outside. It is absolutely delicious, great flavor combinations... and super easy to make. As other reviewers stated, drain the beans or it is too soup-y. This is the third time I have made this in 3 weeks! My husband loves it and takes the leftovers for lunch, he said it is even better on day two because the flavors meld. Read more

Favorite Cold Weather Meal
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This is such a great recipe. I added more veggies (mushrooms, zucchini) and used chicken breast instead of thighs. Tip for... those that found it too watery. Really carmelize your veggies. The first time I made it, my friend added the beans too soon and we found it watery, so I just added a slurry of cornstarch and water to thicken it. The second time I made it I made sure to really get some good carmelization on the veggies, plus drained one can of beans and I didn't have the watery problem. This is a fabulous one pot meal and it comes together very quickly.Read more
