Begin by preparing the chicken: pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels and cut them into bite-sized pieces.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces in batches to avoid overcrowding, cooking until browned on all sides. Remove the chicken and set it aside.
In the same pot, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil along with the chopped onion. Saute for about 3 minutes until the onion is translucent.
Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
Toss in the sliced carrots, celery, and mushrooms. Cook for about 5-6 minutes until the vegetables start to soften.
Sprinkle the gluten-free flour over the vegetables and stir well to coat. Cook for 1-2 minutes to cook off the raw flour taste.
Slowly pour in the chicken broth and dry white wine, stirring constantly to combine and avoid lumps.
Return the browned chicken pieces to the pot. Add the bay leaf, thyme sprigs, salt, and black pepper. Stir to ensure everything is well mixed.
Bring the stew to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and cover. Simmer for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally until the chicken is tender and the stew has thickened.
Remove the bay leaf and thyme sprigs. Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
Serve ladled into bowls, garnished with freshly chopped parsley. Enjoy this comforting gluten-free stew warm.
