Ingredients

Method

In Dutch oven or large heavy-bottomed saucepan, cook bacon over medium heat, stirring, until fat begins to render, about 2 minutes.

Add chicken; cook, stirring, until browned, about 4 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer mixture to plate; set aside.

In same Dutch oven, heat oil over medium heat; cook onion, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and thyme; cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add mushrooms and 2 tbsp water; cook, stirring occasionally and scraping up browned bits, until mushrooms are tender and no liquid remains, 4 to 5 minutes.

Return chicken mixture and any juices to Dutch oven. Stir in beans, strained tomatoes, salt, pepper and 1/2 cup water; bring to boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer until stew is slightly thickened and chicken is no longer pink inside, about 8 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in green onions, parsley and vinegar.
