On Sundays, Mom set our big round oak table with a snowy white cloth and her fine dishes and tableware. On the old wood stove, pushed way back to simmer slowly, was a big pot of chicken and dumplings from scratch in a thick gravy. I can still taste it. -Willa Govoro, St. Clair, Missouri

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 16

¼ cup butter
2 ribs celery, quartered
1 large carrot, quartered
1 small onion, chopped
1 teaspoon mashed garlic
2 large bay leaves
½ teaspoon dried thyme
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
⅛ teaspoon poultry seasoning
2 pounds bone-in chicken breasts
water to cover
2 tablespoons self-rising flour (such as White Lily®)
2 cups self-rising flour (such as White Lily®)
¼ cup cold shortening
¼ cup chicken broth, slightly chilled

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.

MOM'S CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS (SLOW COOKER VERSION)



Mom's Chicken and Dumplings (Slow Cooker Version) image

This is a favorite recipe originally made by my mother with chicken on-the-bone and homemade broth cooked over a stove. I have found I don't have the time to start from scratch and that this version tastes just as good with less fuss! You can substitute freshly cooked chicken, if desired. You can line the slow cooker with a slow cooker liner for easy clean-up.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the dumplings will taste. Use high-quality chicken, buttermilk, and vegetables.
  • Don't overwork the dough: Overworking the dough will make the dumplings tough. Mix the ingredients just until they come together.
  • Let the dough rest: Letting the dough rest for a few minutes before rolling it out will make it easier to work with.
  • Cut the dumplings evenly: Cutting the dumplings evenly will help them cook evenly. Use a sharp knife or a pastry cutter.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot: Don't overcrowd the pot when cooking the dumplings. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the dumplings until they are cooked through: The dumplings are cooked through when they are no longer doughy in the center. Use a toothpick to check if they are done.

Chicken and Buttermilk Dumplings is a classic comfort food dish that is easy to make and loved by people of all ages.
