CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS



Chicken and Dumplings image

Heartier than chicken soup, this classic comfort dish is decidedly more stewlike, thanks to a golden-brown roux, a densely flavored chicken broth, and, of course, the dumplings. Think of them as a biscuit meeting a matzo ball: fluffy little clouds made from a quick mixture of flour, baking powder, buttermilk, butter and an egg for springiness. They're cooked right on top of the chicken stew, partly poaching and partly steaming.

Time 2h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 large yellow onion, diced
4 stalks celery, chopped
6 medium carrots (about 1 1/2 pounds), peeled and sliced 1/4-inch thick
4 sprigs thyme
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, plus more as needed
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 large leeks, white and light green parts thinly sliced
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
3/4 cup buttermilk
1 large egg
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup parsley, tender leaves and stems, finely chopped (optional)
1/4 cup chives, finely chopped (optional)

Steps:

  • Season chicken on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Working in batches if needed, sear chicken, skin-side down, until deeply golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Flip chicken and continue to cook until it is browned on the other side, another 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer chicken to a large plate, and pour off all fat into a measuring cup. (You should have about 5 tablespoons, depending on the fattiness of the chicken.)
  • Leaving all the browned bits in the pot, return 2 tablespoons of fat to the pot. Add onions, celery and half the carrots. Season with salt and pepper and cook on medium heat, stirring to scrape up all the bits on the bottom of the pot. Cook until vegetables start to soften, about 4 minutes or so. Return chicken to the pot along with thyme and 8 cups of water. Simmer, uncovered, until chicken is completely tender and liquid has reduced by about 1/4, about 30 to 40 minutes.
  • Transfer chicken to a plate or cutting board to cool. Strain the stock (you should have about 5 cups; if you have less, you can add water to make up the difference) and wipe out the pot.
  • Heat remaining 3 tablespoons chicken fat along with 1 tablespoon butter (if you don't have enough chicken fat, use enough butter to equal 4 tablespoons of fat) over medium heat. Sprinkle in flour and stir constantly until it's all a pale golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Slowly whisk in reserved chicken stock until no lumps remain (it will thicken considerably at first) and bring to a boil. Add leeks and remaining carrots, season with salt and pepper and lower the heat to simmer.
  • Remove and discard the skin and bones from the chicken. Shred the meat and add to the pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until liquid is nicely thickened and carrots and leeks are tender, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Make the dumplings: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt and pepper. In a small bowl, whisk together buttermilk and egg and add to dry ingredients, followed by melted butter. Using a wooden spoon or spatula, stir just to combine. (Do not overmix.)
  • Using a spoon, drop generous quarter-size dollops of the dumpling dough into the pot (they should just sit right on top; they will not sink), spacing them apart as much as possible (it's O.K. if they touch). Cover the pot and reduce heat to low. Cook, undisturbed, until the dumplings are puffed and totally cooked through, 18 to 22 minutes. (Test a dumpling by cutting it in half; it should look slightly biscuity, but with no raw bits of dough. If it needs more time, continue to cook.)
  • Remove lid and divide among bowls; sprinkle with parsley and chives, if using.

EBONY'S STEWED CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS



Ebony's Stewed Chicken and Dumplings image

This warming dish remains a constant in African American cuisine. Comforting and indulgent, it follows a formula that was familiar to Ebony's audience. Published in 1962, the original recipe from the food editor Freda DeKnight called for a 4 1/2- to 5-pound stewing hen which, she wrote, could take 2 to 3 1/2 hours to cook "depending on the age and quality of the bird." Today, smaller, fresh young chickens are readily available in most supermarkets, so the meat becomes tender much more quickly, making it easier to dig into this one-bowl meal even faster.

Provided by Kayla Stewart

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 (4-pound) whole chicken
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped celery with tops
1 1/2 teaspoons fine salt
1/2 teaspoon flavor enhancer, such as Ac'cent or chicken bouillon granules
1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
1/2 cup whole milk
2 tablespoons finely chopped parsley, plus more for garnish

Steps:

  • Prepare the chicken: Cut the chicken into 8 pieces with the back bones (2 breasts, 2 thighs, 2 drumsticks, 2 wings). You also can buy the chicken already cut up. Place in a large, heavy cooking pot or Dutch oven and add the onion, celery, salt, flavor enhancer, garlic salt, paprika and enough cold water to just cover the meat (about 4 cups).
  • Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Skim any foam from the surface, then reduce the heat to low and simmer gently until the chicken is almost completely tender, about 45 minutes.
  • When the chicken is almost done, make the dumplings: Whisk the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt in a medium bowl. Add the milk and stir to form a thick, smooth batter.
  • Uncover the pot and drop heaping teaspoons of the dumpling batter on top of the chicken, spacing apart slightly. Sprinkle with the parsley and cover the pot. Cook for 20 minutes without lifting the lid. If you cut into a dumpling, the dough should be cooked through to the center. Serve the chicken and dumplings on a platter or in serving dishes, garnished with more parsley.

Tips:

  • Sear the chicken: Searing the chicken before stewing it adds a layer of flavor and helps to brown the meat.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This will give your stew a more complex flavor and texture.
  • Add herbs and spices: Herbs and spices will help to season the stew and give it a more robust flavor.
  • Simmer the stew for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors to meld and the chicken to become tender.
  • Make the parsley dumplings last: The parsley dumplings are best when they are made just before serving. This will prevent them from becoming soggy.

Chicken stew with parsley dumplings is a classic comfort food that is perfect for a cold winter day. The stew is hearty and flavorful, and the dumplings are light and fluffy. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
