WW Chicken and Herb Dumplings image

This recipe is from a Weight Watchers Cookbook. Use two spoons when dropping your dumplings: one to scoop up the dough the other to push the sticky dough into the soup. Once you add the dumplings, don't allow the soup to come to a boil, or the dumplings will fall apart.

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

7 tablespoons cold unsalted butter
2 carrots, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
1 parsnip, peeled and chopped
1 bay leaf
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/2 cups plus 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
2 teaspoons baking powder
2/3 cup cold buttermilk
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill, plus more for topping
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives, plus more for topping
2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken, skin removed

Steps:

  • Heat 3 tablespoons butter in a large Dutch oven or wide pot over medium-high heat. Add the carrots, celery, parsnip, bay leaf, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Add 3 tablespoons flour; stir until toasted, about 1 minute. Gradually pour in the chicken broth, stirring. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until slightly thickened and the vegetables are tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Cut the remaining 4 tablespoons butter into small cubes and rub into the flour mixture with your fingers until pea-size pieces form. Stir in the buttermilk and chopped herbs with a fork until combined. Divide the dough into twelve 1 1/2-inch balls.

SMOKED CHICKEN STEW WITH HERB DUMPLINGS



Smoked Chicken Stew with Herb Dumplings image

My mother often cooked this dish when my family camped out. If you have leftover cooked chicken, use that instead of the smoked chicken, though the smoky taste is great in this dish.

Yield serves 8 as a main course

Number Of Ingredients 22

8 cups chicken stock
8 slices bacon, chopped
1 pound leeks (white part only), cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices and rinsed (see note on page 65)
3 stalks celery, cut into 1/2 inch slices
2 carrots, unpeeled and cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices
1 pound unpeeled red potatoes, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 celery root, peeled and coarsely grated or cut into 1/2-inch dice
12 ounces smoked chicken, shredded
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons dried tarragon
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
1/3 cup minced fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 cup heavy cream
Pinch of freshly ground white pepper
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons herbes de Provence
1/2 cup milk, at room temperature
1/3 cup butter, melted
2 large eggs, beaten
3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Prepare a campfire or wood-fired grill for cooking with indirect heat.
  • Bring the stock to a simmer in a large stockpot. Keep warm on the fire.
  • Brown the bacon in a Dutch oven until lightly crisp. Remove the bacon and one-third of the fat. Add the leeks and sauté for 5 minutes. Add the celery and carrots and sauté for 5 minutes. Add the potatoes, celery root, and warm stock and bring to a boil. Cook for 10 minutes, then add the smoked chicken, salt, tarragon, and thyme. Return to a simmer. Cover and cook at a low boil until the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes. Stir in the parsley, bacon, and cream. Add the white pepper and additional salt to taste.
  • To make the dumplings, stir the flour and baking powder together in a bowl. Stir in the salt and herbs. Beat the milk, butter, and eggs together in a bowl. Stir into the dry ingredients until just combined. Stir in the cheese.
  • Place the dumplings by spoonfuls on the top of the stew, cover, and cook for 10 to 12 minutes, until the dumplings are plump but firm. Take the cover off for the last 5 minutes if a smokier flavor is desired from the fire.
  • Serve in bowls with one or two dumplings per serving.

CHICKEN CASSEROLE WITH HERBY DUMPLINGS



Chicken casserole with herby dumplings image

Bypass the suet and make lighter dumplings for this family-friendly one-pot stew

Provided by Sarah Cook

Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 1h40m

Number Of Ingredients 14

12 skinless chicken pieces - a mixture of thighs and drumsticks on the bone, and halved chicken breasts
3 tbsp plain flour
2 tbsp sunflower oil
2 onions, sliced
2 carrots, diced
200g bacon lardons, smoked or unsmoked, or streaky rashers, snipped
3 bay leaves
3 sprigs thyme
250ml red wine
3 tbsp tomato paste
1 chicken stock cube
140g cold butter, diced
250g self-raising flour
2 tbsp chopped mixed herb - try parsley, thyme and sage or chives

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Toss the chicken pieces with the flour and some salt and pepper, to coat them - it's easy to do this in a plastic food bag.
  • Heat the oil in a casserole with a lid. Brown the chicken pieces well on all sides - you'll need to do this in batches. Remove all the pieces to a plate, and tip the onions, carrot, lardons, bay and thyme into the pan. Cook gently for 10 mins until the onion is softened.
  • Return the chicken pieces, with any juices that have collected on the plate. Then pour in the red wine, 250ml water and tomato paste and crumble in the stock cube. Add a splash more of water if you need, until the chicken is almost covered. Bring to the boil, then cover with a lid and bake in the oven for 20 mins. Remove the lid and bake for another 10 mins while you make the dumplings.
  • Rub the butter into the flour with your fingertips until it feels like fine breadcrumbs. Stir in the herbs with ½ tsp salt and some pepper. Drizzle over 150ml water, and stir in quickly with a cutlery knife to form a light dough. Use floured hands to shape into ping pong sized balls.
  • Place the dumplings on top of the stew and bake for 20 mins more until the dumplings are cooked through.

Tips:

  • To make the dumplings, use a combination of all-purpose flour and whole wheat flour for a healthier option.
  • Make sure to use cold butter when making the dumplings. This will help them to stay light and fluffy.
  • Don't overmix the dumpling dough. Overmixing will make the dumplings tough.
  • When cooking the dumplings, make sure the water is simmering gently. A rolling boil will cause the dumplings to break apart.
  • To make the chicken and herb sauce, use a variety of herbs, such as thyme, rosemary, and sage. This will give the sauce a delicious flavor.
  • If you don't have any fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs instead. Just be sure to use half the amount of dried herbs as you would fresh herbs.
  • Serve the chicken and herb dumplings with a side of roasted vegetables or a salad.

Conclusion:

This chicken and herb dumpling recipe is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The dumplings are light and fluffy, and the chicken and herb sauce is flavorful and comforting. Serve this dish with a side of roasted vegetables or a salad for a complete meal.
