CHICKEN AND SOURDOUGH DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• Mix the dumpling ingredients in a medium-sized bowl until well incorporated. Cover the bowl and let the batter ferment at room temperature for 8 hours.
• Preheat your oven to 250℉.
• Rinse and pat dry your chicken if necessary.
• Salt and pepper the whole bird, spreading all seasonings evenly.
• Heat an 8-quart oven-safe stainless steel, enameled, or cast-iron pot over medium heat. Add the butter. Once it is melted and bubbling add the whole chicken, breast side down.
• Brown the chicken on each side for 5 to 7 minutes (or until golden brown). If the butter is burning, turn your heat down a bit.
• While the chicken is browning, wash and peel the carrots, wash the celery stalks, and peel the shallots.
• Cut the shallots into slices and add them around the browning chicken. Stir them occasionally.
• Chop the carrots and celery into 1-inch chunks.
• Once the chicken has browned on all four sides, set it breast side up in the pan and add the other vegetables around it.
• Sprinkle it with the dried thyme and add the water.
• Bring the pot to a simmer before covering it and transferring it to your oven for a slow 4-hour cooking.
• Remove the chicken from the oven, uncover the pot, and let it cool for 10 minutes.
• Using a fine mesh strainer, pour most of the broth off the chicken into a large mixing bowl.
• Using two large spoons, gently lift the chicken from the pot onto a large dish. It is normal for the chicken to fall apart - just try to be gentle and lift out all pieces. Gently scoop out the vegetables and place them alongside the chicken or in a separate dish.
• Strain the rest of the broth through the strainer into the bowl.
• Add the strained broth back to the pot and bring it to a simmer over medium heat. Taste the broth and season with more herbs, salt, and pepper if needed.
• Using a soup spoon, drop dollops of sourdough dumpling batter into the simmering broth.
• Cook the dumplings for 7 to 10 minutes, turning them over once during cooking.
• While the dumplings cook in the broth, arrange your serving dishes. Large shallow bowls work well.
• Place some vegetables in each bowl, and then pick some dark and light chicken meat and shred it into each bowl.
• Once the dumplings are cooked, divide them equally into each bowl.
• Ladle hot broth over the bowls and garnish them with fresh herbs (parsley, sage, or thyme) if desired.
