Want something hearty but still summery? Try this summer cassoulet with thyme and apples!
Much lighter than the traditional French Cassoulet that is so comforting and wintery but is complicated and takes forever to make.

Prep time: 15 minutes
Cooking Time: 45 minutes

Easy to make!

Ingredients:
4 chicken thighs
2 polish sausages
1 small onion chopped
2 stalks celery chopped
1 cup baby carrots
1/2 green apple chopped
6 to 8 sprigs fresh thyme
2 T olive oil
1 1/2 cup chicken stock
2 large potatoes peeled and cut into large cubes
1 large ripe tomato cut into chunks

Brown the sausage in the olive oil then remove from pan and cut in half.
Brown the chicken thighs then remove from pan. At this point I remove the chicken skin also.
Saute the onion, celery, apple and carrots until onions are clear.
Add the chicken and sausage back into the pan along with the potatoes and sprinkle with thyme.
Add chicken stock, cover and cook on simmer for 40 minutes.
Add the tomatoes and simmer for 5 minutes.
Sprinkle a bit more fresh thyme or chopped parsley on each serving for a bit more color.
Serve and enjoy!
I like to make this in a pan that I can bring right to the table. Serve with lots of hearty crusty bread that you will want to dip into the sauce.
