Steps:
- De-bone chicken and cut into chunks or shred. Set aside.
- Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large Dutch oven over medium heat; cook and stir onion and celery until soft, about 10 minutes.

Add 1 teaspoon salt, black pepper, basil, thyme, potatoes, and mixed vegetable. Cover and cook the stew over medium heat until vegetables are tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Stir in chicken meat and continue to simmer.
- Meanwhile, combine 1 1/2 cups flour, baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl; cut in 3 tablespoons butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in milk and dill. Drop rounded tablespoonfuls of dough into the simmering stew. Cook, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Cover and cook until the dumplings are tender, 8 to 10 minutes more.

CHICKEN STEW FRANCAIS WITH PARSLEY DUMPLINGS
This chicken stew is fabulous! The broth is salty but slightly sweet and thick. I'm not sure if it is the tarragon or the white wine that give the sweetness. The carrots and potatoes add so much to this dish. And I loved the dumpling addition. This will be great on a cold winter night!

Steps:
- 1. Place a 5-quart Dutch oven over medium high heat and add all but 1 tablespoon of the oil. While oil is heating in pot, place the 1/2 cup flour, black pepper and 1 tablespoon of the dry gravy mix in a sturdy zip-top plastic bag. Put chicken pieces in bag and shake and/or knead until all pieces are coated with flour mixture.
- 2. Transfer chicken to pot on stove. Cook, stirring constantly to break apart chicken pieces, until chicken is browned, about 15-20 minutes. Remove from pot, cover and set aside.
- 3. Add remaining oil to same pot. Add the onions, potatoes, carrots and celery. Mix well and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring well to incorporate and browned bits on bottom of pot. Add the chicken broth, remaining gravy mix, chicken gravy, white wine and French tarragon. Mix well, bring to a simmer and return chicken pieces to pot. Reduce heat and cover. Let simmer, stirring often, for an additional 10-12 minutes.
- 4. Meanwhile, make the dumpling batter: In a medium bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, salt, milk, 1 tablespoon oil and parsley flakes. Mix just until combined.
- 5. To make dumplings: Remove cover from pot and drop tablespoonsfuls of batter onto simmering stew. Reduce heat slightly, cover and cook for 10-12 minutes or until dumplings are cooked and puffed up. Toothpick instered into dumpling should come out clean. DO NOT TAKE LID OFF OF POT WHILE DUMPLINGS ARE COOKING!!!

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. In another bowl whisk together 2 cups water and eggs. Pour the liquid into the center of the flour mixture. Whisk until the smooth loose dough forms. Mix in parsley until well incorporated. Let rest for 15 minutes.
- Place a large colander or strainer from a pasta pot over a pot of boiling water. You do not want the colander/strainer to touch the boiling water it should be suspended a couple of inches over the water. Add half of the dough to the colander and using a rubber spatula press the dough through the holes while holding it over the boiling water, allowing the dough fall through holes into the water. Let cook for two minutes then remove the dumplings with a slotted onto a sheet pan. Repeat with remaining dough (Reserve 2 cups of cooked dumplings for Round 2 Recipe German Dumpling Soup.)
- In a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, add half the butter. When it is melted, add half of the dumplings to the skillet, season with salt and pepper to taste and cook until they are golden and slightly crispy in places, about 5 minutes. Repeat with remaining butter and dumplings. Transfer to platter and serve immediately.

CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS
Heartier than chicken soup, this classic comfort dish is decidedly more stewlike, thanks to a golden-brown roux, a densely flavored chicken broth, and, of course, the dumplings. Think of them as a biscuit meeting a matzo ball: fluffy little clouds made from a quick mixture of flour, baking powder, buttermilk, butter and an egg for springiness. They're cooked right on top of the chicken stew, partly poaching and partly steaming.

Steps:
- Season chicken on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Working in batches if needed, sear chicken, skin-side down, until deeply golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Flip chicken and continue to cook until it is browned on the other side, another 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer chicken to a large plate, and pour off all fat into a measuring cup. (You should have about 5 tablespoons, depending on the fattiness of the chicken.)
- Leaving all the browned bits in the pot, return 2 tablespoons of fat to the pot. Add onions, celery and half the carrots. Season with salt and pepper and cook on medium heat, stirring to scrape up all the bits on the bottom of the pot. Cook until vegetables start to soften, about 4 minutes or so. Return chicken to the pot along with thyme and 8 cups of water. Simmer, uncovered, until chicken is completely tender and liquid has reduced by about 1/4, about 30 to 40 minutes.
- Transfer chicken to a plate or cutting board to cool. Strain the stock (you should have about 5 cups; if you have less, you can add water to make up the difference) and wipe out the pot.
- Heat remaining 3 tablespoons chicken fat along with 1 tablespoon butter (if you don't have enough chicken fat, use enough butter to equal 4 tablespoons of fat) over medium heat. Sprinkle in flour and stir constantly until it's all a pale golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Slowly whisk in reserved chicken stock until no lumps remain (it will thicken considerably at first) and bring to a boil. Add leeks and remaining carrots, season with salt and pepper and lower the heat to simmer.
- Remove and discard the skin and bones from the chicken. Shred the meat and add to the pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until liquid is nicely thickened and carrots and leeks are tender, 10 to 12 minutes.
- Make the dumplings: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt and pepper. In a small bowl, whisk together buttermilk and egg and add to dry ingredients, followed by melted butter. Using a wooden spoon or spatula, stir just to combine. (Do not overmix.)
- Using a spoon, drop generous quarter-size dollops of the dumpling dough into the pot (they should just sit right on top; they will not sink), spacing them apart as much as possible (it's O.K. if they touch). Cover the pot and reduce heat to low. Cook, undisturbed, until the dumplings are puffed and totally cooked through, 18 to 22 minutes. (Test a dumpling by cutting it in half; it should look slightly biscuity, but with no raw bits of dough. If it needs more time, continue to cook.)
- Remove lid and divide among bowls; sprinkle with parsley and chives, if using.

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:
- Use a Dutch oven or a large pot with a tight-fitting lid for even cooking.
- Brown the chicken pieces well before adding the other ingredients. This will help to develop flavor and prevent the chicken from becoming dry.
- Add the vegetables and cook until they are tender-crisp. This will help to preserve their nutrients and flavor.
- Use a combination of fresh and dried herbs for added flavor. Fresh herbs will add a bright, vibrant flavor, while dried herbs will add a more subtle, earthy flavor.
- Make sure the dumplings are cooked through before serving. They should be firm to the touch and no longer doughy in the center.
Conclusion:
This chicken stew with parsley dumplings is a hearty, flavorful dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. The chicken is tender and juicy, the vegetables are tender-crisp, and the dumplings are light and fluffy. This stew is sure to please everyone at your table.
