3 Tbsp butter

Steps:

  • 1. Heat the 4 tablespoons of butter in a large dutch oven over medium heat. add the onions, celery and carrots and cook for about 5 minutes.

Add the thyme, bay leaves and salt and pepper to taste. Add the chicken. Cover and simmer about 30 minutes. Discard the bay leaves.
  • 2. Right before you are ready to add the dumplings, Melt the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter. Heat the skim milk in the microwave for 1 minute. Add both the butter and the milk to the flour and mix well until smooth.
  • 3. Return the stew to a simmer. Add the peas and parsley. Drop golf-ball sized dumplings onto the hot stew. It will make about 18 dumplings. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer until the dumplings have doubled in size, about 15 minutes.

Disappointed. The stew was bland and the dumplings were dry. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong. Maybe I just don't like this type of stew.

Easy to follow recipe with great results! The stew was hearty and comforting, and the dumplings were light and fluffy. I added some extra vegetables to the stew, and it turned out even better. Will definitely be making this again.

The dumplings were a bit too dense for my taste, but otherwise this stew was delicious. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the broth was very flavorful. I would definitely make this again, but I would adjust the dumpling recipe.
