The Ultimate Chicken and Dumplings image

This is my ultimate comfort food. While time consuming to make, the taste is out of this world. I have always hated the Bisquick type drop dumplings, so when I found this recipe, I was ticked pink!

Time 5h

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 stewing chicken, cut up
2 quarts water, divided
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon peppercorn
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 medium onion, chopped
2 stalks celery
2 chicken bouillon cubes
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 egg, beaten
1 1/4 cups broth, approximately

Steps:

  • In a large pot, add the chicken, 1 quart of water, onion, celery, garlic and peppercorns. Stew the chicken until completely cooked. Remove chicken from the broth and cool. Remove skin and bones. Cut the chicken into bite sized chunks or shred. Remove 1 - 2 cups broth to use in dumplings; allow to cool.
  • To the remaining broth, add the rest of the water, salt, pepper, bouillon cubes and shredded/cubed chicken and heat to simmering.
  • To make dumplings: Mix together dry ingredients. Mix egg with one cup of broth and add slowly to the dry ingredients. Use as much broth as needed to make a stiff dough. Knead the dough on floured board, roll very thin. Cut into 1-inch squares with a pizza cutter. Drop in simmering broth; cover and cook 20 minutes. Enjoy.
  • If freezing, I will freeze the dumplings, still uncooked, separately from the soup. When time to reheat it, just bring dumplings back to room temperature, reheat the soup to boiling and drop in the dumplings. Very tasty!

I'm gluten-free, so I used gluten-free flour to make the dumplings. They turned out just as good as the regular dumplings.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I like to add a few extra vegetables to it, such as carrots and celery.

This recipe is way too bland. I had to add a lot of salt and pepper to make it taste good.
