CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Season the chicken thighs all over with 2 teaspoons of salt, 1 teaspoon of pepper, and the poultry seasoning.
• In a large Dutch oven, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Place seasoned chicken, skin-side down, in the hot oil and begin to render the chicken fat, about 5 minutes. Once the skin in crispy, flip the chicken and continue cooking for 3 minutes more. Remove the chicken from pot and set aside. Pour the chicken fat into a small bowl and reserve.
• Add the water, onion, the chopped carrot, chopped celery, and parsley stems to the pot. Return the chicken thighs to the pot and bring to a boil over medium high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
• Remove the chicken from the pot and discard the skin and bones. Shred the meat and set aside. Strain the stock through a fine-mesh sieve and discard the vegetables.
• Add 1 tablespoon of the reserved chicken fat to the pot over medium heat, along with the sliced carrots, sliced celery, garlic, and 2 tablespoons of flour. Stir to combine.
• Slowly add the reserved chicken stock, 2 teaspoons of salt, 1 teaspoon of pepper, and the garlic powder. Add the shredded chicken back to the pot and bring to a simmer over low heat and continue cooking for 20 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.
• Meanwhile, make the dumplings: In a medium bowl, combine the remaining cups of flour, the baking powder, remaining teaspoon of salt, remaining ½ teaspoon of pepper, and the remaining 3 tablespoons of reserved chicken fat. Mix with a fork to combine. Add the buttermilk and mix to incorporate, then knead for 2 minutes, until the dough comes together.
• Pull off about 1 tablespoon of dough at a time and add to the soup. Continue cooking until the dumplings are cooked through, about 10 minutes.
• Ladle into bowls and garnish with the parsley leaves.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• For the broth: Bring the chicken broth to a boil in a pot, then turn off the heat. Melt the shortening in a saute pan until completely liquefied, then add the cassava flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika and salt to make a roux. Cook, stirring the roux with a fine whisk, for about 3 minutes. Add about a third of the chicken broth to the roux and cook, whisking constantly, until it begins to thicken. Add the rest of the broth and allow to come to a boil, stirring frequently. Keep warm.
• For the carrots: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Toss the carrots in a bowl with the olive oil and salt. Spread on a baking sheet and bake until al dente, about 20 minutes. Set aside.
• For the chicken and dumplings: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Blend the cassava flour, baking soda, xanthan gum and 1/4 teaspoon salt together in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Add the coconut milk, shortening and vinegar and mix well until combined and a dough forms. Scoop 1/4-cup dollops onto the lined baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes, then rotate the baking sheet and bake until dumplings are set and lightly browned, another 15 to 20 minutes longer.
• Meanwhile, dice the chicken into 1-inch cubes. Toss with the remaining teaspoon salt. Spread on a baking sheet and bake until the chicken registers 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, about 20 minutes. Set aside.
• Toss the carrots and chicken into the broth. Cut a dumpling into 4 pieces and add to a bowl. Top with broth, then garnish with some green onion and cilantro. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make 3 more bowls.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a stock pot over medium-high heat. Add celery, carrot, onion, garlic, bay leaves, thyme, salt, pepper, and poultry seasoning; cook and stir until flavors combine, about 5 minutes. Push vegetable mixture to the sides and add chicken; cook until browned, 3 to 5 minutes per side.
• Pour enough water over the chicken to cover by 3 inches; bring to a boil. Stir, scraping the browned bits off of the bottom of the pot. Reduce heat; simmer until chicken is tender, about 1 hour. Transfer chicken and carrots to a serving plate with a large slotted spoon; let cool.
• Ladle 1/4 cup cooking liquid into a bowl; cool slightly, about 5 minutes. Mix in 2 tablespoons flour. Stir back into the pot.
• Place 2 cups flour in a large bowl; cut in shortening with 2 knives until mixture forms pea-sized bits. Mix in chilled chicken broth until dough is combined.
• Turn dough out onto a floured work surface. Knead 5 to 6 times; pat down to 1-inch thickness. Sprinkle lightly with flour; roll out to about 1/8-inch thickness. Cut dough into squares with a sharp knife.
• Drop squares, in batches, into simmering cooking liquid, moving squares to the side with each addition. Partially cover pot; simmer until dumplings are firm, about 12 minutes. Separate any dumplings that stick together. Remove from heat; keep covered.
• Bone chicken; cut into bite-sized pieces and return to the pot. Chop carrot; return to the pot. Cool chicken and dumplings, about 30 minutes, before serving.
