Tuscan Braised Chicken with Cavolo Nero & Creamy Beans

A delicious way to use cavolo nero, my one-pan Tuscan braised chicken with creamy beans is hearty, flavorful, and super easy to make. Let’s go:

Ingredients: Serves 6 (533 calories | 38.7g protein per serving)
- 1kg chicken thighs (bone-in, skin-on)
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp minced garlic
- 1 tbsp Italian mixed herbs
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 400g cannellini beans, drained
- 300ml chicken stock
- 200g fresh cavolo nero, roughly chopped
- Juice of 1/2 lemon
To garnish:
- Lemon wedges
- 1 tbsp grated parmesan
- Drizzle of olive oil

Method:
- Heat a large pan over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken thighs until golden brown and cooked through, ensuring juices run clear. Remove and set aside.
- In the same pan, sauté the onion and garlic until softened and fragrant. Stir in the cannellini beans, Italian herbs, and smoked paprika. Pour in the chicken stock and stir well. Add the cavolo nero to the pan, cover with a lid, and let it wilt for about 5 minutes.
- Squeeze in the lemon juice and season generously with salt and pepper. Return the chicken to the pan and warm through for 5 minutes.
- Garnish with grated parmesan, a drizzle of olive oil, and extra lemon wedges on the side. Enjoy!

Iron is a vital mineral that helps carry oxygen in the blood through a protein called haemoglobin. Without enough iron, you can feel tired, weak, and struggle to concentrate. Good iron absorption is important because even if you eat iron-rich foods, your body must absorb it well to benefit. Vitamin C helps with absorption, while too much calcium or tea can reduce it.

Researchers from NC State University and UNC Chapel Hill published a paper on May 29, 2023 that found the following:

- Sucralose-6 acetate, a metabolite found in sucralose caused DNA strand breaks and disrupted the "tight junctions" in gut lining — hallmarks of leaky gut
- Exposure activated genes tied to oxidative stress, inflammation and even cancer risk
