    As you have probably noticed, I love one-pot and one-skillet recipes. If you haven’t tried these yet, you should check out two of my favorite weeknight meals – One Skillet Tilapia Veracruz and the One Skillet Chicken Puttanesca. They are simple, quick, and easy to make. And of course delicious and healthy! 🙂

    I just love when something delicious is also healthy, don’t you? The Cannellini beans are a great addition to this meal and turn this one-skillet Tuscan chicken into a super filling quick meal. If you want to make it paleo, skip the Cannellini beans.

    How To Make One Skillet Tuscan Chicken

    What you need

    • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed
    • 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
    • 1/2 yellow onion, diced

    Preparation

    In a large cast iron skillet heat oil over medium heat, add the cubed chicken pieces and cook for about 8 minutes on both sides, until cooked through. Remove chicken and transfer to a plate.

    Add 1 Tbsp of olive oil to the skillet and sauté the sliced mushrooms 5 – 7 minutes until the mushrooms are tender and the juices have evaporated. Set aside.

    Add another 1 Tbsp olive oil to the skillet and the diced onion. Saut̩ the onions 3 Р4 minutes until translucent. Add the minced garlic to the onions and saut̩ together one more minute. Add salt and pepper to taste while cooking.

    Add 1 Tbsp olive oil to the skillet and toss the diced tomatoes, sun-dried tomatoes, Cannellini beans, and black olives. Season again with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Sprinkle in the oregano, thyme and drizzle the balsamic vinegar and honey. Stir a few minutes.

    Next, add the cooked chicken and mushrooms to the skillet â€“ stir and cook 1-2 minutes, or until chicken is heated through. Add more salt and pepper if needed.

    Serve hot, garnished with the fresh basil.

    This meal was so delicious, I couldn’t get enough of it.
