Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    In a large pot, add the chicken thighs, chicken broth, diced carrots, diced celery, chopped onion, and minced garlic. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat and let simmer for about 20 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.

  2. 2

    Make Dumpling Batter

    In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, black pepper, milk, and melted butter. Stir until a soft dough forms.

  3. 3

    Shred Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the pot and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the pot.

  4. 4

    Add Peas and Dumplings

    Stir in the frozen peas and bring the mixture back to a gentle boil. Drop spoonfuls of the dumpling batter over the top of the chicken mixture. Cover the pot and cook for an additional 15 minutes without lifting the lid.

  5. 5

    Finish and Serve

    Once the dumplings are cooked through (they should be fluffy and firm), sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley before serving. Enjoy your Chicken N Dumplings!
