BEST CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS RECIPE

Steps:

• In a large, heavy-bottomed pot or dutch oven melt 6 tbsp butter over medium high heat.
• Add the onion and carrots and cook for 5 minutes. Add garlic and peas and cook for 1 minute more.
• Add 3 tbsp of flour to the pot and stir to combine. Add evaporated milk and chicken stock. Stir to combine.
• Bring the pot to a boil and add the chicken and thyme. Season with salt and pepper. Add 1 tbsp lemon juice. Let the soup simmer for about 10 minutes, uncovered, while you make the dumplings.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt and thyme. Pour the milk and butter into the center of your bowl. Stir in the milk and butter until a soft dough forms.
• Once your dough is formed, use a large cookie scoop or spoon to create balls of dough. Roll the dough gently into 9 - 10 balls.
• Place the balls of dough onto the surface of the pot, taking care to place them around the pot and not overlapping if possible.
• Press the dough balls down into the pot so that they are covered by the liquid.
• Add the lid to your pot and reduce the heat to a simmer. Simmer for 15 minutes, until the dough is cooked through. Test a dough ball to see if it's cooked through before removing the pot from the heat. If it's not cooked through, keep simmering the pot for 3 - 4 more minutes.

• Pour the cans of chicken broth into a saucepan along with the chicken; bring to a boil. Once the broth is at a steady boil, take a handful of biscuit dough and flatten it in your hand. Tear off 1 to 2 inch pieces and drop them into the boiling broth. Make sure they are fully immersed at least for a moment. Once all of the dough is in the pot, carefully stir so that the newest dough clumps get covered by the broth. Cover, and simmer over medium heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

EASY CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS FROM SCRATCH

Steps:

• Sauté the carrots, celery, and onions in 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large pot over medium high heat until softened a bit and beginning to brown (about 3 minutes).
• Add 1/4 cup flour, stir to coat.
• Add chicken broth (4 cups) and bring to a boil.
• Turn the heat down to simmer and add 1/2 cup milk and the chicken. Season with salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, to make the dumplings, mix together the remaining 1 cup of flour, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves. Stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter, melted, until flour mixture is crumbly looking. Add the remaining 1/2 cup of milk and stir until JUST combined. Do NOT over mix, or your dumplings may be dense.
• Add spoonfuls of the dumpling mixture to the simmering pot- I recommend using a small cookie scoop for this (a tablespoon can also be used).
• Cover and simmer on low for 15 minutes, or until dumplings are fluffy, cooked, and float to the top. No peeking!
• Serve garnished with extra fresh thyme and fresh ground pepper, if desired.

• In a small dish, mix together the biscuit mix, chopped onion and milk until well moistened; drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto boiling stew; reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered for 10 minutes.
• Cover and simmer an additional 10 minutes; sprinkle with dried parsley the last few minutes of cooking.

CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS FAST AND EASY

Steps:

• Follow soup can directions using water. Once soup has come to a slight boil, lower temp to low/med.
• Pull the dough to the size you want for your dumpling and roll it in your fingers to make it somewhat round and drop carefully in soup. Once you have all your dumplings in, cook for 15 minutes uncovered on medium heat.
• Drain chicken. The chicken will be packed so pull it apart some to separate, and then add to soup. Meat is already cooked so once it's soup temperature it's ready to eat!
