Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large pot over medium-high. Season 1.5 lb chicken thighs with 1 tsp salt and 0.5 tsp black pepper, then add to pot. Cook until browned on both sides, about 6 minutes total. Remove chicken and set aside.

  2. Step 2

    Add 1 sliced onion to the same pot. Cook over medium until soft and golden, about 5 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Add 2 cups chicken broth and 1 lb diced potatoes. Scrape up any browned bits. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Return chicken to pot, cover, and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Add 1 head of broccoli cut into florets. Stir gently. Cover and cook until broccoli is bright green and tender, about 5 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt or pepper if needed. Serve hot.
