CALICO CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS
This stew is definitely in the "comfort foods" category. Grandma made it almost every Sunday for the family dinner. (Grandpa had a chicken farm.) I actually think my version is better. The addition of the frozen vegetables add color and you can add as many as you want to.

Steps:
- Place chicken, celery, onion, parsley, parsnips in a large Dutch oven and cover with water.
- Bring to a boil and lower heat to medium low, just hot enough to maintain a slow simmer.
- When chicken is tender, remove the chicken to a bowl.
- Whisk the flour into about 1/2 cup of the chicken broth from the pot.
- When smooth, return to the pot, stir and heat to thicken.
- Add seasoning salt to your taste.
- When the gravy tastes just right, return the chicken and add the frozen vegetables to the pot.
- Prepare the dumplings: Sift flour, baking powder, and salt together.
- Stir in parsley, chives; thyme and marjoram if you're using them.
- Beat the milk and egg together and add to the dry ingredients.
- Stir with a fork just until mixed.
- Don't beat or handle too much.
- Bring chicken and gravy to a simmer.
- Drop heaping tablespoons of the dumpling batter all over the surface of the stew.
- Replace cover and steam for about 10 minutes.
- If you have more batter than you have room, make a second batch.
- Don't overcrowd the dumplings.

[email protected]I followed the recipe exactly and the dumplings were a bit too dense. I think I'll try adding a little more baking powder next time.
