If you're looking for a comforting and hearty meal, this Chicken and Dumplings recipe is perfect for you. Made with tender chicken, soft dumplings, and savory broth, this dish is sure to satisfy your cravings.
Ingredients:
- 1 whole chicken
- 6 cups of water or chicken broth
- 2 cups of all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp of baking powder
- 1 tsp of salt
- 2/3 cup of milk
- 2 tbsp of butter
- 1 cup of diced carrots
- 1 cup of diced celery
- 1 diced onion
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 2 tbsp of olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
First, place the chicken and water or chicken broth in a large pot and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and let the chicken simmer until it is tender and cooked through. Once cooked, remove the chicken from the pot and set it aside to cool.
Next, shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces and set it aside. In another bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Add in the milk and butter and stir until the mixture forms a soft dough.
Roll out the dough on a floured surface until it is about 1/4 inch thick. Cut the dough into small pieces and set them aside. In a separate pan, sauté the diced carrots, celery, onion, and garlic in olive oil until they are softened. Add the shredded chicken and sautéed vegetables to the pot with the chicken broth. Bring the mixture to a boil and then add in the dumpling pieces. Reduce heat to a simmer and let the mixture cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until the dumplings are cooked through.
Season the chicken and dumplings with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot and enjoy!
