Provided by Blair Lonergan

Categories     Dinner

Time 57m

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 cups chicken broth
1 cup half-and-half
⅓ cup butter
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup peeled and chopped carrots
1 cup chopped celery
½ cup flour
1 teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
4 cups cooked, diced or shredded chicken
½ cup frozen peas (not thawed)
2 cups Bisquick
⅔-¾ cup cold buttermilk (or sub with regular milk)
½ cup grated cheddar cheese
¼ teaspoon dried parsley
2 tablespoons butter, melted
⅛ teaspoon garlic powder

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Spray a 2 ½ - 3-quart casserole dish with cooking spray and set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together chicken broth and half-and-half. Set aside.
  • Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, carrot and celery; sauté for 10 minutes. Add flour and continue cooking and stirring for 1 more minute. Reduce heat to medium and gradually stir in the chicken broth mixture.
  • Continue cooking over medium heat, stirring regularly, until thick and bubbly (about 5-6 minutes). Make sure that the mixture doesn't boil. Stir in the salt and pepper. Add chicken and frozen peas.
  • Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish. Cover with foil and bake for about 10 minutes while you prepare the biscuit dough.
  • Use a fork to stir together the Bisquick mix, buttermilk, cheese and parsley until a soft dough forms.
  • Remove the chicken mixture from the oven, take off the cover, and give the filling a stir. Use a large scoop to drop about ¼-cup of the biscuit dough at a time onto the hot chicken mixture. You should have about 8 biscuits on top of the dish.

Farm-Style Chicken and Drop Dumplings image

Provided by Nancy Fuller

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

Two 3-pound chickens, each cut into 6 pieces and backbones reserved
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
6 medium carrots, chopped into 1-inch pieces
6 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
4 stalks celery, chopped into 1-inch pieces
2 large leeks, white part only, chopped into 1/2-inch pieces and soaked in cold water to remove grit
2 medium yellow onions, chopped into 1/2-inch pieces
1 tablespoon poultry seasoning
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 1/2 cups flour
3/4 cup milk, plus more if needed
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 teaspoons salt
2 large eggs
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • For the soup: Place the chicken pieces and the backbones in a large pot and cover with 16 cups water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a low simmer and poach the chicken until cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Use tongs to remove the chicken pieces and set aside to cool; discard the backbones. Once the chicken cools enough to handle, pull the meat from the bones, shred and roughly chop; set aside. Strain the chicken broth and keep warm.
  • In a medium pot, melt the butter over medium heat, and stir in the carrots, garlic, celery, leeks, onions and poultry seasoning. Cook the vegetables until they begin to soften, 8 to 10 minutes, then stir in the flour.
  • Add the reserved chicken broth, bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook until the soup thickens slightly and vegetables soften, about 25 minutes. Stir in the shredded chicken and bring the soup back to a low simmer.
  • For the dumplings: In a medium bowl, add the flour. Use two butter knives to cut in the milk, butter, baking powder, salt and eggs. Add additional milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, if necessary. The dough should be moist but not too wet.
  • Pull the dough into 1/4-cup pieces and place directly in the simmering soup; cover and cook for 10 to 12 minutes. Sprinkle with the chopped parsley and serve.

Time 3h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 (4 pound) whole chicken, rinsed
2 quarts water
1 large bay leaf
1 whole clove
4 cloves garlic, peeled
½ cup butter
3 carrots, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
3 ribs celery, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 large onion, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
6 mushrooms, quartered
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon ground white pepper
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
½ cup all-purpose flour
½ cup milk
1 tablespoon herbes de Provence
3 tablespoons fresh tarragon, chopped
2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
1 (10 ounce) can refrigerated biscuit dough

Steps:

  • Place chicken in large (9-quart) stock pot, pour in water, and drop in bay leaf and single clove. Bring to simmer over medium-low heat. As foam rises to the top of the broth, skim and discard with a ladle. Add peeled garlic cloves, cover pot, and simmer on low for 1 hour.
  • Remove chicken from pot, and allow to cool for a few minutes. When cool enough to handle, remove all meat from the bones, and set the chicken meat aside. Pour stock into a bowl and set aside.
  • In a large oven-safe pot or Dutch oven over medium heat, melt butter, and cook and stir carrots, celery, onion, and mushrooms until the vegetables start to become tender, about 10 minutes. Season with salt, white pepper, cayenne pepper, black pepper and paprika. Mix in flour, stirring to coat vegetables with flour, about 5 minutes. Add half of reserved stock, and stir with the vegetables and flour to form a very thick sauce. Stir in remaining stock until sauce is smooth; reduce heat to a simmer, and cook uncovered for 45 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Stir milk into the sauce, and gently mix in the reserved chicken meat, herbes de Provence, tarragon, and rosemary. Bring stew back to a simmer, and cook for 10 more minutes. Pop open the can of biscuits, separate, and place biscuits on top of stew.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the biscuits are golden brown and the stew is bubbling, about 20 minutes. Place lid on the pot or Dutch oven, and return to oven; bake until biscuits are cooked through, about 15 more minutes. Test biscuits for doneness by pulling apart a biscuit near the middle of the stew to see if it's cooked through.

FARMHOUSE BUTTERMILK BISCUITS



Farmhouse Buttermilk Biscuits image

Make and share this Farmhouse Buttermilk Biscuits recipe from Food.com.

Provided by kitchen_mom

Categories     Breads

Time 10m

Yield 10-15 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
3 tablespoons sugar
3/4 cup real butter (margarine will work, too, but the taste and texture will be different)
1 1/4 cups buttermilk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, cream of tartar, and sugar.
  • Cut butter into pieces, then cut into flour mixture. Real butter is very hard, and I found that it was much easier to use my fingers to squeeze the butter into the flour.
  • When the mixture is well combined and crumbly, make a well in the center and pour in buttermilk.
  • Using a fork, stir, starting at the outside of the bowl and blending inward.
  • Turn dough out onto a floured surface and knead a few times, just until the dough is completely combined and holds together well.
  • With a rolling pin, roll dough out to about 1/2 inch thick. Cut with a biscuit cutter or round cookie cutter.
  • Grease a cookie sheet with crisco and place the biscuits 1-2 inches apart on the sheet and bake at 450 degrees for 10 - 12 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use a cast iron skillet: A cast iron skillet is the best choice for cooking the chicken because it evenly distributes heat and creates a crispy crust.
  • Season the chicken well: Use a generous amount of salt, pepper, and garlic powder to season the chicken. This will help to create a flavorful dish.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat: Cooking the chicken over medium heat will help to prevent it from drying out.
  • Cover the chicken while it cooks: Covering the chicken while it cooks will help to keep it moist.
  • Make sure the chicken is cooked through: Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken. It should be 165 degrees Fahrenheit in the thickest part of the breast.
  • Make the biscuits ahead of time: The biscuits can be made ahead of time and refrigerated for up to 2 days. This will save you time on the day you're serving the dish.
  • Serve the chicken and biscuits with your favorite sides: Mashed potatoes, green beans, and gravy are all great options.

Conclusion:

Farmhouse chicken and biscuits is a classic comfort food dish that is easy to make and always a hit with the family. With a few simple tips, you can make sure that your chicken and biscuits turn out perfect every time. So next time you're looking for a hearty and satisfying meal, give this recipe a try.
