Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 tablespoons olive oil
3 medium carrots, halved lengthwise, sliced 1/2 inch thick
2 celery stalks, sliced 1/2 inch thick
1 medium onion, diced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves, chopped
1 cup dry white wine
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole milk
1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces
4 1/2 cups homemade chicken stock (see Cook's Note)
1/4 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves, chopped, plus more for serving
1 cup frozen peas
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon garlic salt
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 cup whole milk

Steps:

  • For the chicken: Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot with a lid over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the carrots, celery, onion, 1/2 teaspoon salt and about 10 grinds black pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables just begin to soften but don't take on any color, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Stir in the garlic and thyme and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the wine and simmer until completely evaporated, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the butter until completely melted. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir until it is completely incorporated and a sandy paste forms. Pour in the milk and stir until the flour has been smoothly incorporated into the liquid.
  • Add the chicken and the chicken stock to the pot and stir to combine. Bring the mixture to a boil then lower the heat to medium-low and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes. Stir in the parsley and peas and remove from the heat.
  • For the dumplings: Whisk together the flour, baking powder, garlic salt, 1/2 teaspoon salt and about 10 grinds black pepper in a medium bowl. Stir in the melted butter until just combined, then add the milk and stir until a ball of dough forms.
  • Use a small ice cream scoop or measuring cup to scoop 10 balls of dough into the pot (about 2 tablespoons each). Cover the pot and simmer over medium-low until the dumplings have puffed up and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 10 to 15 minutes. Divide among bowls and sprinkle with more parsley.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, high-quality ingredients will make a big difference in the flavor of your bacon chicken and dumplings. Choose good quality bacon, skinless and boneless chicken breasts or thighs, and fresh vegetables.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the bacon and chicken, make sure not to overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the food from cooking evenly and will make it more likely to stick to the pan.
  • Use a large pot for the dumplings: The dumplings will expand as they cook, so it's important to use a large pot to prevent them from overcrowding. This will also help ensure that the dumplings cook evenly.
  • Don't overcook the dumplings: The dumplings are done cooking when they float to the top of the pot and are no longer doughy in the center. Overcooking the dumplings will make them tough and chewy.
  • Serve immediately: Bacon chicken and dumplings are best served immediately after they are cooked. The dumplings will start to absorb the broth and become soggy if they sit for too long.

Conclusion:

Bacon chicken and dumplings is a delicious and comforting dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. With a few simple tips, you can make this dish at home that will rival any restaurant version. So next time you're looking for a hearty and satisfying meal, give bacon chicken and dumplings a try. You won't be disappointed!
