EASY CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS FROM SCRATCH



Easy Chicken and Dumplings from Scratch image

This Chicken and Dumplings recipe is SO EASY to make from scratch if you use rotisserie chicken and store-bought broth! It's a fast, easy comfort food to make on busy nights. The fresh thyme in the dumplings sets it over the edge.

Provided by Elizabeth Lindemann

Categories     Soup

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 tablespoons butter (divided)
2 carrots (diced small)
2 stalks celery plus their leaves (diced)
1 onion (diced)
1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (divided)
4 cups low sodium chicken stock/broth
1 cup whole milk (divided)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves (or 1/2 teaspoon dried, plus more for garnish)
2 cups cooked diced or shredded chicken
extra salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Sauté the carrots, celery, and onions in 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large pot over medium high heat until softened a bit and beginning to brown (about 3 minutes).
  • Add 1/4 cup flour, stir to coat.
  • Add chicken broth (4 cups) and bring to a boil.
  • Turn the heat down to simmer and add 1/2 cup milk and the chicken. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Meanwhile, to make the dumplings, mix together the remaining 1 cup of flour, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves. Stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter, melted, until flour mixture is crumbly looking. Add the remaining 1/2 cup of milk and stir until JUST combined. Do NOT over mix, or your dumplings may be dense.
  • Add spoonfuls of the dumpling mixture to the simmering pot- I recommend using a small cookie scoop for this (a tablespoon can also be used).
  • Cover and simmer on low for 15 minutes, or until dumplings are fluffy, cooked, and float to the top. No peeking!
  • Serve garnished with extra fresh thyme and fresh ground pepper, if desired.

THE BEST CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS



The Best Chicken and Dumplings image

This is pure comfort food at its finest. Tender chunks of chicken and vegetables come together in a creamy, richly-flavored sauce with pillowy dumplings baked right on top. It's hearty but not too heavy and comes together from scratch in about an hour.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

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.

QUICK AND SUPER EASY CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS



Quick and Super Easy Chicken and Dumplings image

This is a great recipe for Southern-style chicken and dumplings. My husband doesn't usually like chicken and dumplings, but he absolutely loved these and asked for seconds (which he never does with anything). My little boys (2, 4, and 5 years) ate it up and asked for more also. I just threw this together on a night I didn't feel like spending much time and energy on cooking. This is great and easy for the kids to help with also.

Time 20m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 ¼ cups biscuit baking mix
⅔ cup milk
2 (14 ounce) cans chicken broth
2 (10 ounce) cans chunk chicken, drained

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, stir together the biscuit mix and milk just until it pulls together. Set aside.
  • Pour the cans of chicken broth into a saucepan along with the chicken; bring to a boil. Once the broth is at a steady boil, take a handful of biscuit dough and flatten it in your hand. Tear off 1 to 2 inch pieces and drop them into the boiling broth. Make sure they are fully immersed at least for a moment. Once all of the dough is in the pot, carefully stir so that the newest dough clumps get covered by the broth. Cover, and simmer over medium heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

SPICY CHICKEN STEAMED DUMPLINGS

A steamed Asian dumpling with a spicy chicken and mushroom mixture. Don't worry if you don't like mushrooms, these have so much flavor you won't even know they are there! I adapted this to my taste from a Taste of Home recipe.

Provided by Jessy M

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 1h15m

Yield 48 dumplings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs, trimmed of fat
1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
1 small onion, cut into chunks
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons prepared mustard
1 tablespoon sriracha sauce or 1 1/2 teaspoons hot pepper sauce
1 (14 ounce) package wonton wrappers
1 egg
1 teaspoon water
1 cup soy sauce
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 green onion, sliced
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

Steps:

  • Place chicken thighs in a medium saucepan and add just enough water to cover completely. Bring to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes, or until cooked through. Remove chicken and allow to cool slightly, reserving cooking liquid.
  • Combine soy sauce, ginger, pepper flakes, and green onion in a small jar, shake well and set aside.
  • Cut chicken into chunks and place in bowl of food processor. Add mushrooms, onion, hoisin, mustard, and sriracha. Process until ground and well combined.
  • Beat egg with the 1 tsp water. Working in small batches, place 1 tbsp of meat mixture on center of each wonton wrapper. Brush two edges with egg wash and fold up sides, corner to corner, to seal well around filling. Fold top corner over and secure with a little more egg wash if desired.
  • Bring reserved cooking liquid to simmer in a pan with a steamer basket. Spray basket with cooking spray and place dumplings in basket.
  • Cover with lid and steam 8-10 minutes.
  • If you would rather cook these like potstickers with a crispy bottom, spray a shallow pan with cooking spray and set over medium heat. Set dumplings directly in pan and pour hot cooking liquid around dumplings to about 1/2 inch deep. Cover and cook 5-6 minutes or until bottoms are brown and crispy. Don't move them around during cooking or they will stick and tear.
  • Serve with sauce.
