THE BEST CHICKEN & DUMPLINGS
Homemade chicken and dumplings from scratch harken back to my childhood and chilly days when we devoured those cute little balls of dough swimming in hot, rich broth. It's one of those types of soup you'll want to eat again and again. -Erika Monroe-Williams, Scottsdale, Arizona

SAVORY CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS # 2 - CASSIES
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...

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.
CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS
Chicken and dumplings are a family favorite! I remember when my mom used to make this dish using store-bought biscuits and a whole chicken. This is my version--made with boneless, skinless chicken thighs and homemade chive dumplings with dough that won't make you miss the pre-made kind!

Steps:
- For the chicken: Heat a large braiser or Dutch oven over medium-high heat and add 4 tablespoons butter. Sprinkle the chicken thighs with salt and pepper and add to the pan. Cook until golden, turning once, about 3 minutes per side. Remove to a plate.
- Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, the onion, celery and carrots and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently and scraping up the brown bits that cling to the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon, until the vegetables are coated in fat and slightly golden, about 3 minutes. Add the flour and stir until the vegetables are coated. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the chicken stock, bay leaf and browned chicken, along with any chicken juices at the bottom of the plate. Bring to a boil, lower to a simmer, cover and simmer until the chicken is tender and cooked through, about 45 minutes.
- For the dumplings: Whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Using a fork, cut the shortening into the flour mixture. Slowly add the buttermilk, gently mixing to incorporate. Fold in the chives.
- Use 2 forks to shred the chicken. When the chicken is ready, use 2 spoons sprayed with cooking spray if desired to add scoops of dumpling dough over the top of the stew, about 1 tablespoon each. Cover and simmer until the dumplings double in size, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat, discard the bay leaf and garnish with parsley.

CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS
My mom made a similar recipe for this comforting dish, and I still remember the wonderful aroma of chicken and dumplings cooking throughout the house. She didn't make it often, but when she did, what a treat. I especially loved the light, tender dumplings, which is still my most favorite part of this dish. (In a pinch, Bisquick dumplings are also very good). For those of you, like my good friend Cindy, who like a more Southern style of dumpling (heavier, chewier), the recipe is at the bottom. This recipe is from Steph's Country Kitchen Goodness. This is my favorite website for recipes.
