Ingredients

4 servings

1 cup french green lentils (puy lentils), rinsed
2 ½ cups low-sodium chicken broth
Chef's tip
Use the same amount of low-sodium vegetable broth. The dish will be a little lighter in flavor than with chicken broth.
2 tbsp olive oil
2 medium carrots, finely diced
2 stalks celery, finely diced
1 small yellow onion, finely diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 bay leaf
4 sprigs fresh thyme
1 tbsp red wine vinegar
1 tsp dijon mustard
salt and pepper, to taste

For serving

2 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

1
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion, carrots, and celery and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and the onion is translucent, about 6–8 minutes.
2
Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
