Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 lb. boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-size pieces
1 tsp. salt, plus more, to taste
Freshly ground pepper, to taste
8 Tbs. (1 stick) unsalted butter, cut into small pieces, plus 2 Tbs. butter
3 carrots, peeled and thinly sliced
1 yellow onion, chopped
2 celery stalks, thinly sliced
2 cups plus 2 Tbs. all-purpose flour
4 cups chicken broth
1/2 cup baby peas
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 cup milk
2 Tbs. minced fresh flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Cook the chicken and vegetables Season the chicken with salt and pepper. In a Dutch oven over medium-high heat, melt the 2 Tbs. butter. Add the chicken and cook, stirring often, until golden, about 4 minutes. Add the carrots, onion, and celery, season with salt and pepper, and cook until the vegetables begin to soften and the chicken is opaque, 4 to 5 minutes. Sprinkle with the 2 Tbs. flour and cook, stirring, for about 2 minutes. Gradually pour in the broth, add the peas and bring to a boil. Make the dumpling dough Meanwhile, in a bowl, combine the 2 cups flour, the baking powder and the 1 tsp. salt. Using a pastry blender or 2 knives, cut in the 8 Tbs. butter until the mixture forms coarse crumbs the size of peas. Add the milk and stir, then knead a few times until the mixture forms a soft dough. Finish the stew Drop heaping tablespoons of the dough over the top of the boiling stew. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot and cook until the dumplings have nearly doubled in size, 7 to 10 minutes. Sprinkle with the parsley and serve immediately. Serves 4.
