CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS FOR TWO



Chicken and Dumplings for Two image

I think I saw this in Cooking Light - the library's copier was broken, so I scribbled down the ingredients and directions on a slip of paper. I don't usually have celery, so used green beans and added a teaspoonful or so of dry celery leaves for flavor. I've also made it with leftover chicken, added mushrooms, used fresh herbs or different herbs, and made other changes on the fly. I love that it makes a small quantity for those of us with small households. Update: I recently served this over hot cooked noodles, and that was another nice way to have this dish.

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, cubed
1 cup diced yellow onion
1 cup sliced carrot
3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon salt
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
6 cups chicken broth
½ cup heavy cream
½ teaspoon dried thyme
2 bay leaves
1 ½ cups frozen peas
4 tablespoons fresh parsley, minced
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon pepper
1 ⅓ cups heavy cream

Steps:

  • In a 6-quart Dutch oven, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned on both sides. Remove from the pot and set aside.
  • Add carrot and onion and cook until just tender, about 3 minutes.
  • Add the garlic and stir for another minute, until fragrant.
  • Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the butter and flour, stirring constantly for 3 minutes to prevent lumps from forming.
  • Add the chicken and any accumulated juices back to the pot and stir to coat in the roux.
  • Add the chicken broth, cream, thyme, and bay leaves and bring to a simmer. Once soup is at a simmer, add the frozen peas, cover, and cook for 15 minutes.
  • Make the dumplings: In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, and cream. Stir until mixture comes together into single mass of dough.
  • Using a large spoon or ice cream scoop, form the dough into small round balls about 1 inch (2 ½ cm) in diameter (the dough should yield 14-16 dumplings).
  • Place the dough balls in the simmering soup (making sure they don't touch), add the parsley, and cover. Let the soup simmer for 15 minutes, or until the dumplings are cooked through.
  • Ladle into bowls, giving 1-2 dumplings per serving.
  • Enjoy!

SAVORY CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS # 2 - CASSIES



Savory Chicken And Dumplings # 2 - Cassies image

This is another of my thrown together recipes...I have to say I outdid myself...it was so much better than anticipated. The dumplings were so tender, melt in your mouth good and the broth was so flavorful...I love a lot of flavor and it was a deep chicken flavor, using the broth from poaching the chicken, and my choice of...

Number Of Ingredients 19

PREP TIME INCLUDES POACHING CHICKEN
2 2 - 3 pound, whole chickens
1 stick butter
1/2 a bunch of celery, chopped
1 c chopped carrots
2 large onions, chopped
4 - 5 bay leaves
1 Tbsp thyme, dried
1 1/2 tsp dried sage
2 tsp pepper
4 Tbsp ( chicken flavored ) better than bouillon paste
salt to taste ( i wait till the end to add salt, as the buillon has a lot of salt
water to cover the chicken by at least 2 inches ( you may need to add more water as the chicken cooks - i keep tasting the broth making sure it doesn't get watered down, adjust seasonings accordingly
DUMPLINGS
4 c flour
1 tsp baking powder
2 pinch salt
4 Tbsp butter
1 3/4 - 2 c milk

Steps:

  • 1. In a large stock pot; cover chicken with water to half way full. (I used my 12 quart stock pot.) So, with the addition of the chicken, the water came to the half way mark. Add the thyme, sage, bay leaves and vegetables, butter and bring to a full boil. Reduce heat to medium high, and simmer till chicken is cooked; about 1 hour 15 minutes.
  • 2. Remove chicken and bay leaves from the broth; set aside to cool. Meanwhile, add more water to the broth if needed to maintain 6 quarts worth of liquid. Now; add the bouillon paste, stirring to dissolve.Taste and add more seasonings if needed. Keep broth hot on low and begin to make your dumplings.
  • 3. Dumplings: I used my food processor. If using a processor, add the flour, baking powder, salt...pulse a few times. now add the butter; pulse 5 - 6 times, then add the milk...pulse till forms a ball.
  • 4. No processor method: In a bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Cut the butter into the dry ingredients with a fork or pastry blender. Stir in the milk, mixing with a fork until the dough forms a ball.
  • 5. Heavily flour a work surface. ( I cut dough into fourths.) Roll the dough out thin with a heavily floured rolling pin. Dip your cutter in flour and cut the dumplings in squares about 2 x 2 . It's okay for them not to be exact. Some will be bigger, some smaller...
  • 6. Use a floured spatula to put them on a heavily floured plate. Just keep flouring between the layers of dumplings.
  • 7. To cook them, bring the broth to a boil. Drop the dumplings in one at a time, stirring while you add them. The extra flour on them will help thicken the broth. Cook them for about 15-20 minutes or until they are not doughy tasting.
  • 8. While dumplings are cooking; de-bone the chicken. Chop or I used my fingers to pull the chicken apart, into bite sizes chunks, or whatever you prefer.
  • 9. Add the cooked chicken to the pot and you're ready to serve. The chicken and dumplings thicken up as they cool...to reheat, just add a little water. I served mine with corn bread and pinto beans.
