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:

  • For the perfect casserole, use a combination of white and dark meat chicken. Dark meat adds richness and flavor, while white meat keeps the dish light and lean.
  • Season the chicken and ham generously before cooking. This will help to enhance their flavor and make the casserole more flavorful.
  • Be sure to cook the chicken and ham until they are cooked through. This will help to prevent foodborne illness.
  • If you don't have time to make the mustardy dumplings from scratch, you can use a store-bought biscuit mix instead. Just follow the package directions for making the dumplings.
  • Serve the chicken and ham casserole hot out of the oven. It can be enjoyed on its own or with a side of mashed potatoes, rice, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

Chicken and ham casserole with mustardy dumplings is a classic comfort food dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like your casserole creamy or cheesy, or you prefer a more savory dish, this recipe has you covered.
