Chicken with White Beans, Capers and Lemon

Easy and perfectly juicy roasted chicken with tangy white beans combined with lemon and dill for a warming and hearty high protein dinner that the whole family will love. This is made with bone-in skin-on chicken thighs, but drumsticks would work just as great. While any white bean with or without mirepoix will do, I prefer cannellini, aka white kidney beans, to navy beans or pea beans.

 

Chicken with White Beans, Capers and Lemon

adapted from Dish
  • 800 g Tin cannellini beans with Suppengrün/mirepoix/vegetables, drained and rinsed
  • 35 g Drained capers
  • 1 tsp Dried dill
  • 1 Organic lemon, zested and sliced
  • Sea salt and ground pepper
  • 6 Bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
  • 3 tbsp Chicken schmaltz
  • 200 ml Chicken broth
  • 2 tbsp Dill, chopped
  1. Preheat the oven to 200C/400F. Toss beans, capers, dried dill and lemon zest in a large baking dish and spread out evenly on bottom of pan and season with salt and pepper.
  2. Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper. Heat the chicken schmaltz in an oven safe pan and brown the chicken on all sides.
  3. Place the browned chicken thighs on the top of beans. Arrange lemon slices around the chicken thighs, then add chicken broth.
  4. Roast chicken for about 35 minutes until the chicken is cooked through. Scatter with the chopped dill and serve with crusty bread if you wish.

    Your chicken always looks so flavourful and juicy. I haven't used cannellini beans yet but will look for them next time I'm at the grocery store.
