Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

7 tablespoons cold unsalted butter
2 carrots, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
1 parsnip, peeled and chopped
1 bay leaf
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/2 cups plus 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
2 teaspoons baking powder
2/3 cup cold buttermilk
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill, plus more for topping
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives, plus more for topping
2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken, skin removed

Steps:

  • Heat 3 tablespoons butter in a large Dutch oven or wide pot over medium-high heat. Add the carrots, celery, parsnip, bay leaf, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Add 3 tablespoons flour; stir until toasted, about 1 minute. Gradually pour in the chicken broth, stirring. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until slightly thickened and the vegetables are tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Meanwhile, whisk the remaining 1 1/2 cups flour with the baking powder and 3/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Cut the remaining 4 tablespoons butter into small cubes and rub into the flour mixture with your fingers until pea-size pieces form. Stir in the buttermilk and chopped herbs with a fork until combined. Divide the dough into twelve 1 1/2-inch balls.
  • Stir the chicken into the pot. Arrange the dough balls on top. Cover and cook over medium-low heat until the dumplings are firm to the touch and cooked through, 12 to 15 minutes. Top with more dill and chives.

CHICKEN SOUP WITH HERB DUMPLINGS



CHICKEN SOUP WITH HERB DUMPLINGS image

Categories     Soup/Stew     Chicken

Number Of Ingredients 13

Long version:
2 pounds of chicken thighs
8 cups of water
Quick version:
8 cups store-bought chicken broth
1 store-bought roasted chicken (or leftovers!)
Dumplings:
1 cup of flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons very cold butter
1/2 cup of milk
the chopped herbs from above

Steps:

  • Longer method: In a large dutch oven, cover the chicken with the water and bring to a gentle simmer. Poach the thighs about 20 mins. Remove from heat. Pull chicken out of broth. When cooled, shred the meat from the bones and set aside. Return the bones/scraps to the pot- bring to a gentle simmer. Cover and keep the heat low. Simmer for at least an hour, or several hours if you have the time. Strain stock through cheesecloth, return to the pot. Quick version: Put the broth in a large dutch oven and heat over a low flame. Pick about 2 cups worth of chicken meat from the roast. Set aside. Both versions can continue on here: 1 cup thinly sliced carrots (2 carrots) 1/2 cup thinly sliced celery (1 rib celery) 1/2 cup thinly sliced green onion (2 large onions) Add to the simmering stock and start the dumplings. To make the dumplings: 3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh herbs such as parsley, chives, or thyme Combine flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Quickly rub in the butter with your fingers and then add the milk and herbs. Stir. To finish: Add the onions and chicken to the soup. Raise the heat a little and drop the dumpling dough into the soup by pulling rough balls from the dough, slightly smaller than a ping-pong ball. Cover and cook for 5 minutes. Remove the cover and poke at the dumplings, which should be bopping on the surface, to turn them. Keep the soup at a steady simmer and cook another 10 minutes or so.

CHICKEN & HERB ROLLED DUMPLINGS



Chicken & Herb Rolled Dumplings image

My inspiration to make this recipe came from Connie Brannen here at Just A Pinch. She makes her dumplings just the way mama always made hers. I made this recipe using SELF RISING flour along with lots of garlic, shredded carrots, onions, & celery soup since I was out of celery & a few herbs to add flavor and color to the...

4 medium bone in chicken breast
3 each chicken legs and thighs
15 clove garlic, minced (less if preferred)
2 can(s) cream of celery soup or 4 stalks celery chopped
2 medium onions, chopped
1 Tbsp steak seasoning (similiar to montreal)
1 Tbsp granulated garlic
1 c shredded carrots
HERB ROLLED DUMPLINGS
3 c self rising flour (plus more for rolling dumplings)
2 tsp coarse black pepper
1 Tbsp granulated garlic
4-5 Tbsp chopped dried chive
1 tsp dried thyme
1/2 tsp rosemary, dried
2 large whole egs, room temperature
1/2 c extra virgin olive oil or butter softened
1 c chicken stock, or more as needed

Steps:

  • 1. This dish starts out with lots of flavor by using lots of chicken, garlic, onions & celery soup, because I was out of fresh celery.
  • 2. Begin by seasoning the chicken pieces with the steak seasoning and granulated garlic. If chicken is frozen just add pieces to a large pot, cover with water and add in the spices. Place pot over medium high heat, cover with lid and bring to boil, then lower heat and allow to simmer.
  • 3. Mince the cloves of garlic, and chop the onions and shred carrots & add to the pot as well. Then over a medium high heat, continue to cook the chicken parts until tender. About an hour to 1 and a half hour.
  • 4. When chicken is fully cooked remove to a large platter and allow to cool.
  • 5. When cool enough to handle remove & discard the outer skin bones and cartlidge, set chicken aside till needed.
  • 6. Prepare the dumplings by combining the flour with the herbs and spices. Then add in the eggs and olive oil, and stir with a spoon or spatula. Then add in the chicken stock and stir until dough comes together.
  • 7. Liberally dust the counter surface with extra flour. Divide dough into 2 pieces, then roll each half on counter into a long rectangle shape.
  • 8. Then using a pastry cutter or knife cut dough into long strips, then cut into opposite directions creating one and a half to two inch pieces.
  • 9. Alternate the dumpling pieces onto a platter and repeat until all the dough has been cut. In the mean time cover the chicken stock with a lid and bring to a rolling boil. Then drop dumplings into hot stock and stir occasionally to prevent dumplings from sticking. Repeat until all the dumplings has been added. Then add in the boneless pieces of chicken.
  • 10. Cover the pot with lid and return to boil and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, dumplings will rise to the top of pot. add a few pats of butter if desired, adjust seasoning after tasting if desired, then serve while still hot.

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h40m

Number Of Ingredients 20

4 to 5 pound chicken cut into uniform pieces. i use thigh, leg, and breast meat.
1 medium onion, cut into thick slices
3 stalks of celery, sliced
4 large carrots, sliced into rounds
1 ½ cup of fresh mushrooms
3 bay leaves
1 teaspoon rubbed sage
kosher salt and coarse ground black pepper to taste
1 stick of real butter
HERB DUMPLINGS
1 cup of all purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 tablespoons butter, room temperature
1 ½ teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon coarse ground black pepper
1 teaspoon rubbed sage
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder
2 tablespoons dried leaf parsley
about ¾ cup milk

Steps:

  • 1. Cook's Tip: You will need a large Dutch oven or pot with a tight fitting lid. I use a cast iron Dutch oven.
  • 2. Select a young 4 to 5 pound chicken. You can use all parts of the chicken, but it is less bones if you use the legs, thighs and breast meat, which is what I do. I make stock for future use from the remaining parts of the chicken.
  • 3. Remove the skin from the chicken. Cut the breast meat in half so all the pieces are about the same size. Place the chicken pieces in a large Dutch oven over medium high heat.
  • 4. Add 8 cups of water. Add the bay leaves, rubbed sage, salt and pepper. Bring pot to a boil then turn down to a simmer for 30 minutes or until chicken is tender.
  • 5. Lift out the chicken to a platter and remove the bones and return the chicken to the pot. Add the stick of butter. Now, add the remaining vegetables and bring temperature back up and then when it comes to a boil, turn down to a simmer. Simmer until vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes. Remove bay leaves. Check seasoning for salt and pepper.
  • 6. Thicken or not to thicken? We prefer our broth to be more like a stew and the addition of dumplings does thicken it somewhat. Optional: If you like a thicker stew, now is the time to thicken it by adding 2 tablespoons of flour to ½ cup cold water and whisk until smooth and then add to the broth. Stir.
  • 7. Making Dumplings In a small bowl, add flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, sage, garlic and onion powder, and parsley. Mix dry ingredients well, then add butter. Mash the butter into the flour with a fork, then using your fingers distribute it evenly throughout the flour, then add milk.
  • 8. Stir mixture just until wet. The goal is to make a sticky, moist, spoonable dough. Dip your spoon in the hot broth, and then drop spoonfuls of the dough into the simmering broth until the bowl is empty. Turn the heat up and bring it to a boil and then immediately turn the heat to simmer (so it won't tear your dumplings) Put the lid on tight. Cook 20 minutes. NO PEEKING, PLEASE! You will lose your steam, because the heat and steam is what cooks your dumplings.
  • 9. Serve this delicious chicken and dumplings in bowls. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use fresh herbs for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh herbs, you can use dried herbs, but use half the amount.
  • Don't overwork the dough. Overworking the dough will make the chicken herb Dumplings tough.
  • If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour. If the dough is too dry, add a little more water.
