CHICKEN & DUMPLINGS POT PIE RECIPE - (4.5/5)



Chicken & Dumplings Pot Pie Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by davidv

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup cooked chicken, diced into small pieces
3/4 cup frozen peas and carrots
2 (10.5-oz) cans chicken gravy
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
2 tsp chopped fresh thyme
3-1/2 cup all-purpose baking mix
1 cup buttermilk
1 cup milk

Steps:

  • Combine the chicken, peas and carrots, 1 can of the chicken gravy, salt, pepper, and 1 tsp of the thyme and mix until incorporated. Divide the mixture evenly among 6 cups of a 12-cup muffin pan. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and freeze overnight, or until you're ready to bake the muffins. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Coat a 6-cup Texas-size muffin pan with cooking spray. Mix together the all-purpose baking mix, buttermilk, milk, and remaining thyme in a medium-size bowl until smooth. Fill each muffin pan cup approximately 1/3 of the way full with the dumpling dough. Remove the chicken filling from the freezer and run the bottom side of the muffin pan under warm water for 30 seconds, just to loosen the filling from the pan. Using a fork, pop the frozen fillings out and place one in the center of each dough cup. Divide the remaining dough over the top of each chicken filling, making sure the top layer of dough covers the filling entirely and connects to the bottom layer of dough. Bake for 45 minutes. While the muffins are baking, heat the remaining can of chicken gravy and serve it with the finished muffins.

INSTANT POT® CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS



Instant Pot® Chicken and Dumplings image

I wanted the richness of long-simmered chicken stew, but without the fuss of using a whole chicken. This compromise, using boneless skinless chicken thighs with bone-in chicken breast, gave me the richness of flavor and ease of preparation I was looking for! It's basically chicken pot pie made in a pressure cooker rather than an oven.

Time 50m

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 23

½ tablespoon olive oil
1 cup diced onion
½ cup diced carrot
½ cup diced celery
1 bay leaf
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs
1 pound bone-in chicken breasts, skin removed
½ teaspoon thyme
½ teaspoon dried marjoram
1 teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
salt and ground black pepper to taste
½ cup frozen petite peas
½ cup frozen cut green beans
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons cold unsalted butter
1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
½ cup buttermilk

Steps:

  • Pour the olive oil into a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as an Instant Pot®) and select the Saute function. Cook onion, carrot, celery, and bay leaf until the vegetables are soft and the onion has turned translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • Add chicken broth, chicken thighs, chicken breasts, thyme, marjoram, salt, and pepper. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 9 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
  • Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Carefully remove the chicken pieces with tongs and place them in a bowl to cool slightly; discard bay leaf.
  • Mash butter with the flour to make a smooth paste; set aside.
  • Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl for the dumplings. Cut in cold butter until mixture is the texture of cornmeal. Stir in parsley and set aside.
  • Shred cooled chicken and return to the pot. Taste the broth and adjust the seasoning if needed. Add peas and green beans. Stir in the flour-butter paste. Select Saute function to bring broth back to a boil.
  • Pour buttermilk into the dumpling mixture and stir until combined. Drop the dumpling dough by heaping spoonfuls on top of the stew; a small cookie scoop works well.
  • Cover pot with the lid, leaving the steam vent open. Select Slow Cooker function and simmer on Low, covered, until dumplings are cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes. A skewer inserted in the center of a dumpling should come out clean.

CHICKEN POT PIE DUMPLINGS



Chicken Pot Pie Dumplings image

This is a recipe I made up, when trying to make homemade pot pies. They are not really dumplings, but I thought they resembled one from the outside appearance..... I used frozen prepared empanada discs in the freezer section of my local grocery store. They tasted spot on, and my family loved them..... If you want to make the gravy a little creamier, just add a touch of whipping cream to thicken it up.

Categories     Pot Pie

Time 1h24m

Yield 12 Dumplings, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

21 ounces chicken gravy, canned
1 lb boneless chicken breast, fillets
16 ounces bread dough
16 ounces frozen peas and carrots, thawed
1 egg, beaten for egg wash

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F.
  • Place chicken in baking dish, fill with enough water to cover chicken. Bake for 45 minutes. Let chicken cool. Using two forks, shred chicken. Set aside.
  • Place mixed veggies on a cookie sheet and broil for 5-7 minutes. Stirring halfway through to avoid burning the veggies.

  • Fold the flaps over the top of the chicken mixture, brushing the egg wash onto the dough flaps to "glue" the dumpling closed.
  • Repeat for all 12 dumplings.
  • Lower oven to 350°F.

  • Let sit for 10 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use a large pot or Dutch oven to make the soup. This will give you plenty of room to stir the ingredients and prevent them from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
  • Cut the chicken into small pieces so that they cook evenly.
  • Add the vegetables to the pot in order of their cooking times. The vegetables that take the longest to cook should go in first.
  • Season the soup to taste with salt, pepper, and other spices.
  • Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for at least 30 minutes. This will give the flavors time to develop.
  • Serve the soup hot with a side of bread or crackers.

Conclusion:

Chicken and dumplings pot pie is a classic comfort food that is perfect for a cold winter day. This recipe is easy to follow and can be made with ingredients that you probably already have on hand. The soup is flavorful and filling, and the dumplings are light and fluffy. This is a great dish to serve to a crowd, and it is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
