    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

    • 1/3 cup black olives
    • 2-3 Tbsp olive oil or ghee
    • 1 Tbsp honey

    • 2 Tbsp fresh basil, chopped for garnish
    • Salt & pepper to taste


    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.

    Do you think this could work without the honey? I. In phase one of the South zbeach diet so trying to make is fit in.

      Delicious Meets Healthy

      It will definitely work without the honey. It might not taste quite the same. If you wish, you can add another sweetener like maple syrup. Happy cooking! 🙂

    Would black beans be an okay substitute for the white beans?

      Delicious Meets Healthy

      Absolutely!

    I made this last night. Didn’t have mushroom and black olives, and added potatoes and chicken broth. Followed everything else exactly. DELICIOUS. My husband and I couldn’t stop eating it. I will be making variations of this as the weather cools off. YUM!

      Delicious Meets Healthy

      The addition of potatoes sounds really good! I am glad you and your husband loved it! Thanks for stopping by, Shannon! 🙂

    I cant take my eyes off the colours. I am trying new flavours recently and this just sounds perfect to the rainy days. 🙂

      Thanks, Roy! I agree, it’s a perfect comfort meal for rainy days.

    This looks so tasty and I would love to try it, but could you please clarify if the oregano and thyme are fresh or dried? Thank you!

      Delicious Meets Healthy

      Hi Carla, they are dried. 🙂 Happy cooking! Hope you enjoy this recipe!
