Tuscan Chicken & Herb Dumplings
Ellbee’s Garlic Kitchen Box

Tuscan Chicken & Herb Dumplings

A cozy cookbook classic made lighter, brighter and richer in real flavor. Tender chicken, vegetables and fluffy herb dumplings swim in a lemony Tuscan broth that warms the whole house before it even hits the table.
Total Time 50 minutes
Servings: 6 servings
Course: Mains

Ingredients
  

Method
 

  1. Warm Ellbee's Extra Virgin Olive Oil in a Dutch oven. Brown the chicken, then add onion, carrots and celery. Cook until the onion is soft, then stir in Ellbee's Tuscan Gourmet Garlic for one minute.
  2. Add broth and Ellbee's Champagne Balsamic Vinegar. Simmer until the chicken is tender, about 15 minutes, then stir in peas.
  3. For the dumplings, stir flour, baking powder, a pinch of salt, milk, butter and parsley just until a thick dough comes together. Drop heaping tablespoons over the simmering broth, cover tightly and cook for 12 minutes without lifting the lid.
  4. Spoon into warm bowls with plenty of broth and a dumpling or two in every serving.

Notes

Time: 50 min
Kitchen tip: The covered pot is not optional: the trapped steam is what makes the dumplings rise instead of sink.
