Total time: 1 h 10 min
Yield: 6 servings
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs; 4 cups chicken broth; 1 onion, chopped; 3 carrots, sliced; 3 celery stalks, diced; 2 garlic cloves, minced; 1 bay leaf; Salt and pepper to taste; 2 tbsp olive oil; 2 cups all-purpose flour; 1 tbsp baking powder; 1/2 tsp salt; 1/4 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed; 3/4 cup milk

Instructions

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken thighs and cook until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Remove the chicken and set aside.
In the same pot, add the onion, carrots, celery, and garlic. Cook until the vegetables are tender, about 5-7 minutes.
Return the chicken to the pot and add the chicken broth, bay leaf, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20-25 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.
While the stew is simmering, prepare the dumplings. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add the milk, stirring until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the pot and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the pot.
Drop spoonfuls of the dumpling dough into the simmering stew. Cover and cook for 15 minutes, or until the dumplings are cooked through.
Stir gently, being careful not to break up the dumplings, and serve hot.
