NEELY'S CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• In a very large saucepan or Dutch oven, add chicken, chicken broth, thyme, and bay leaf to cover. Turn on heat to low and let simmer for 20 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through. *Cook's Note: You'll want to poach the chicken on a low simmer and start with cold stock so the chicken cooks evenly.
• Once the chicken is cooked, transfer to a 13 by 9-inch casserole dish and let cool. Reserve broth and discard the thyme and bay leaf. When chicken has cooled, shred. Use your hands or a fork and make sure to get all the meat off the bone. Discard the skin and bones.
• Add flour, salt and pepper, to taste, and baking powder to a large bowl and whisk together. In a small saucepan, bring heavy cream, butter and herbs to a low simmer then add to the dry ingredients. Stir with a rubber spatula until combined. Using your hands, form dough into dumplings.
• Heat a large Dutch oven over medium heat and add oil. Once oil is hot, add onions, carrots, celery and garlic. Saute until soft, 3 to 4 minutes. Add reserved broth to Dutch oven with vegetables and add the chicken. Bring to a low simmer. Add dumplings 1 at a time into the simmering soup. Cover pan with a lid and cook for 25 minutes. Add salt and pepper, to taste, if necessary.

GREEK CHICKEN AND TOMATO SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Season the chicken breasts well with salt and pepper. Toss them in a bowl with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Heat a grill pan or a cast iron pan over high heat. Sear the chicken breasts for about 2 minutes on each side, until grill marks appear if using a grill pan, or until nicely browned if using a regular pan. Transfer to a baking sheet and place in the oven. Roast for 10 to 15 minutes, or until a meat thermometer reads 165 degrees when inserted in the thickest part. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
• Meanwhile place the sliced onion in a bowl and cover with water. Soak for 5 minutes, drain and rinse well. Drain on paper towels.
• When the chicken is cool enough to handle tear it into bite-size pieces or a little bigger than bite-size and place in bowl. Add the onion, tomatoes and olives. Season with salt and pepper and toss with the lemon juice, vinegar and remaining olive oil. Add the mint and feta and toss again.
• Line a platter or wide salad bowl with the lettuce. Top with the chicken and tomato salad, and serve.
