EMERALD DRAGON CHICKEN

Steps:

• Heat oil in wok over medium high heat; add garlic, ginger, and chiles and cook until very fragrant; add chicken and stir-fry until chicken is cooked through, remove from wok.
• Add a small amount of oil to wok and swirl; add broccoli and cabbage to wok and stir-fry, adding about 1 oz of water as needed to help cooking come along but not too much you want it too sizzle off (too much will make sauce watery at end but you can add more cornstarch mixed with water to thicken up); cook until broccoli and cabbage are crisp-tender.

• Pour sauce mixture into wok and stir to coat everything, and stir until everything is thickened; add cilantro and mix well.

CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• Cut chicken backs, necks and wings into 1-inch pieces.
• For the broth: in a large pot, combine the chicken, onions, water, bay leaves and salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, partially covered, until the chicken is tender, about 45 minutes. Remove the chicken pieces and set aside. Discard the chicken backs, necks, and wings. When the chicken pieces have cooled, remove the meat from the bones in chunks and set aside. Discard the skin and bones. Strain the broth and discard the vegetables.
• Prepare the dumplings: In a medium bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, and salt together. In a small saucepan over low heat, bring the butter and milk to a simmer. Stir the butter and milk mixture into the dry ingredients with a fork and stir until the mixture just comes together. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out to a 1/8-inch thickness. Cut into long strips 1-inch wide. Transfer to a large plate or baking sheet and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• In the cleaned Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook until golden-brown, 3 to 4 minutes. While whisking, add the wine, the reserved chicken broth, Essence, and thyme. Cook until thickened, about 5 minutes, then add the celery, carrots, and onion. Cook until the vegetables are tender-crisp, about 15 minutes. Add the reserved chicken meat, heavy cream, and peas. Season with salt (if necessary), and add black pepper, to taste.
• Place the dumplings on top of the chicken mixture and gently stir into the hot liquid. Cover and simmer until the dumplings are cooked through, about 10 minutes. Gently stir in the parsley. Serve in large soup bowls.
• Combine all ingredients thoroughly.
