Easy Chicken Or Turkey With Dumplings Food

TURKEY AND DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• Measure out 4 cups of turkey broth or leftover turkey gravy. If using gravy instead of stock, it needs to be quite thin. If the gravy was on the thick side even when it was hot last night at dinner, thin it down with a little chicken stock. If you do not have enough turkey broth or leftover turkey gravy, measure what you have and add some chicken broth until you have approximately 4 total cups of liquid. When I made it last time, I had to add nearly 1 cup of chicken broth because I only had 3 cups of leftover turkey gravy. It tasted just fine.
• In a 10" skillet with straight sides, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the scallions, peas, and carrots and cook for 2 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute longer. Add the turkey then the turkey broth/gravy/chicken broth and stir to combine. Bring to a simmer and taste for seasoning. Add salt and pepper to taste. Don't under season the broth. Once the dumplings are added, the flavors will be muted so season the broth a little more robustly than you normally would.
• While you are waiting for the broth to come to a simmer, make the dumplings by whisking together the flour, baking powder, and salt. When the broth mixture comes to a simmer and you have adjusted the seasonings, add the milk and melted butter to the flour mixture and use a spoon to stir everything together until it is just combined. Don't over mix or you'll toughen the dumplings.
• I use two soup spoons to add the dumpling dough to the broth. I scoop up some of the dough with one spoon and push it off into the broth with the other. Continue adding dough as quickly as you can - leaving a little room between dumplings, if possible. It'll be a tight squeeze to get all of the dough into the broth but it'll fit. IMMEDIATELY cover the dumplings with a tight fitting lid and cook for 20 minutes. Whatever you do, DON'T PEEK while they're cooking. The dumplings should lightly simmer while cooking. I normally reduce the heat to someplace between medium low and medium after the first 5 minutes of cooking so the liquid does not simmer too aggressively.
• After 20 minutes, take the skillet off the heat and serve piping hot. This is an EXCELLENT way to use up Thanksgiving leftovers. Delicious and easy!
• TIP: This recipe has a high ratio of dumplings to broth - which means that it is not particularly soupy when fully cooked. If you like a lot of soup with your dumplings, use the same amount of gravy base but halve the dumpling recipe.

• 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.

TURKEY AND DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
• Add the butter to the flour mixture and combine using 2 forks or a pastry blender until the butter is the size of small peas. You can also use a food processor to combine the ingredients as well.
• Pour the buttermilk over the flour and butter mixture and stir with a spatula to combine until it becomes a soft dough. Be careful not to overwork the dough. The less it is mixed up, the more tender the dumplings will be.
• After you have created the dough for the dumplings, heat the broth in a large Dutch oven or pot until boiling.
• While the broth is heating, dust a clean kitchen surface with a generous amount of flour and roll out the dough into a 1/4-inch-thick sheet.
• Slice the dough into small squares using a pizza cutter to create the dumplings.
• Add the dumplings a few at a time into the boiling broth, making sure not to dust off too much of the extra flour as it will thicken the broth.
• Continue adding dumplings until there are no more left. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until the dumplings are tender and fluffy and the broth has thickened.
• Add the cooked turkey to the broth and heat until it is warmed through.
• Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Serve with the parsley if using and enjoy.

CHICKEN & DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• Chicken:
• Cut up chicken, but do not remove skin. The skin and bones can be removed later. Place chicken, celery, onion, bay leaves, bouillon and House Seasoning in water and cook at a low boil for 30 to 45 minutes, until meat begins to fall off the bones. Remove skin and bones at this point, along with bay leaves. Return chicken to pan. Prepare dumplings and set them aside for a few minutes. Add cream soup to chicken and continue to boil. If desired, you can thicken the stock at little by mixing 2 tablespoons cornstarch with 1/4 cup of water and adding it to the stock. Drop dumplings into boiling stock. Never stir dumplings. Shake the pot gently in a circular motion to submerge dumplings in stock. Cook until the dumplings float and are no longer doughy, 3 to 4 minutes. Do not overcook.
• Dumplings:
• Put flour/salt mixture in a mixing bowl. Beginning in center of flour, dribble a small amount of ice water. Work mixture with fingers from center of bowl to sides of bowl, incorporating small amounts of water at a time. Continue until all flour is used up. Batter will feel as if it is going to be tough. Knead dough and form into ball. Dust a good amount of flour onto dough board and rolling pin. Roll out dough, working from center. Dough will be firm. Roll to 1/8 inch thinness. Let it air-dry for a minute or two while you return your attention to the boiling pot at the point at which you add the canned soup to the chicken mixture. Cut dumplings into 1-inch strips. Working with one strip at a time, hold strip over pot, pull it in half, and drop into the boiling stock. Remember, do not stir after dumplings have been added to pot.
• Note: Frozen dumplings are available in most supermarkets if you don't have time to make them.

• 6. When veggies are tender, add cooked chicken and let simmer about ten minutes.
• 7. Mix dumpling according to box. Set Aside.
• 8. After about ten minutes, taste broth. Add more onion salt or pepper to taste.
