Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon olive oil
4 carrots, cut in half lengthwise and thinly sliced into half-moons
1 onion, diced
3 3/4 cups homemade or low-sodium canned chicken stock
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup yellow cornmeal
1 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt, plus more for seasoning
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
3/4 cup frozen corn, thawed
1 large egg
1/3 cup milk
3/4 pound cooked turkey, cut into 1-inch cubes (about 2 cups)
Ground pepper

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add carrots and onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, 3 to 4 minutes. Add stock and 2 cups water; bring to a simmer. Cover, and cook until vegetables are just tender, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine flour, cornmeal, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Stir in cheese and corn. Add egg and milk; stir vigorously to make a slightly sticky dough. Using lightly floured hands, form dough into 1-inch balls; set aside.
  • Add the turkey to soup; season with salt and pepper. Bring to a gentle boil; add dumplings. Cover; cook until dumplings are cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes. Serve warm.
