Chicken and Dumplings A La Celeste
I use Costco chicken because it's bigger that let's say, a Safeway chicken. You can use any plain roasted chicken, but if you do use more of it.
1 breast and thigh (or more) from Costco chicken skinned and separated with fork
陆 cup chopped onion
2 bay leaves
1 carrot sliced (optional)
1 celery rib sliced (optional)
2 quarts chicken stock
Freshly ground black pepper
1 egg
1 cup plus 2 Tbsp milk
Pepper
2 tablespoons baking powder
3 tablespoons chopped parsley (optional)
1 1/4 cups flour (or more you want it to be thick like a paste)
1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
Bring the stock to a boil reduce to a simmer add bay leaves, onion, celery and carrot simmerfor 20 minutes. Add the chicken meat to the stockpot, and cook for another 10 minutes. In a mixing bowl, whisk the egg and 1 cup of the milk together. Season the mixture with pepper. Stir in the baking powder and parsley. Stir in the flour, mixing to make a thick paste. In a small bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in the remaining milk. Bring the liquid back to a boil. Whisk the cornstarch mixture into chicken broth cook at a boil for a minute and then reduce to a simmer. Drop heaping tablespoons of the dumpling batter into the soup mixture, distributing the dumplings evenly, until all the batter is used. When the dumplings have risen to the surface, simmer and cook for 4 minutes, stirring gently. Serve the chicken and dumplings immediately in soup bowls

--Chicken 'n Dumplings Recipe
Ingredients:
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped celery
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup butter or margarine
1/2 cup all purpose flour
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon pepper
4 cups chicken broth
1 package (10 oz) frozen green peas
4 cups cubed chicken
***DUMPLINGS***
2 cups buttermilk biscuit mix
2 teaspoons dried basil
2/3 cup milk
Directions:
In a large saucepan, saute onion, celery and garlic in butter until tender. Add flour, sugar salt, basil, pepper and broth; bring to a boil. Cook and stir for 1 minute; reduce heat. Add peas and cook for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. S tir in chicken. Pour into a greased 13in. X 9in. X 2in. baking dish.
For dumplings: Combine biscuit mix and basil in a bowl. Stir in milk with a fork until moistened. Drop by tablespoonfuls onto casserole (12 dumplings).

**********CHICKEN %26amp; DUMPLINGS
2 cans of can butter biscuits
1 can Cream of Chicken soup
3 bouillon cubes
1 tsp garlic salt (optional)
3 to 4 boneless chicken breast
Boil chicken breast until done (20 minutes). While chicken is boiling, prepare dumplings.
Roll out can of biscuits on a work surface sprinkled with flour. Make them as flat at you can and check that they have a light coating of flour. Set them aside.
When chicken is done, remove from pan and set aside to cool, saving the water in the pot that the chicken was cooked in. Skim any foam off the surface; you want to make sure you have a good bit of water in the pot, about 3/4 full. If water has boiled off, then just add more. Bring to a boil and add 1 can of Cream of Chicken, 2tbs butter, 3 boullion cubes, 1 tsp of garlic salt. Stir well
Over medium high heat, begin adding dumplings. Tear them into quarter size pieces and drop into the boiling water.
Hint: The less you stir the better they are, so after you add all of them, reduce the heat to medium setting, stirring only occasionally. Add chicken back into pot, tearing into small pieces. Cook until the dumplings are soft; this usually takes 30 to 45 minutes. I promise these are the best dumplings you will ever eat!. Enjoy!
MMMMMM!!!!!
My Recipe:
1 whole roasting chicken
4 cups veggies (potatoes,carrots,onions,peas)
cornstarch
Bisquick
I like to boil my chicken till its falling off the bone.strain it,saving the broth for the base of the stew.Pick apart the chicken and put back in broth. Add veggies (the ones that take longer first) Boil them till they are almost done. take a couple tablespoons cornstarch and mix it with cold water til it looks like milk.Add it slowly,stirring constantly to stew. Till you get desired consistency you desire.Follow the directions on the box of Bisquick for dumplings.Very easy.
You can do this even easier if you use bone-in breasts and frozen veggies.They actually sell a stew mix with pot,carrots ect....Or use boneless breast and cans of chicken broth.
After making this a couple times you'll get it just the way you want it.I like to add a dash of Bells seasoning it gives it a slight stuffing taste, if you like stuffing.
