I’m always searching and trying new recipes to make for my husband and me on weeknights. Preferably, something easy. One pot meals are perfect. Less clean-up! This Vinegar Chicken with Green Beans is a perfect weeknight meal.

I used boneless, skinless chicken thighs. Again easy. And fresh carrots and green beans from the grocery store, although you could substitute frozen if that’s what you have on hand.

Brown the chicken thighs in a pan. I like to use my shallow 3 quart Dutch oven that can go from the stove to the oven. Again easy and less clean-up!

What I love most about this Vinegar Chicken with Green Beans recipe is the wonderful tang from the red wine vinegar. I feared that using so much vinegar (1 1/2 cups) would make this dish horribly strong. But it wasn’t. It was delicious. Serve with some crusty Sourdough Bread. Enjoy!
