    Made this for a dinner at home with my mother-in-law and sister-in-law and was a SUCCESS!!! I'm from Spain, married an american guy and moved to the States a little more than a year ago and I totally love your videos of american soul food recipes, specially because I see little 'mediterranean' twists on them and that's so me! Thanks for all your videos!

    Laura, I just made this overnight-I'm a night owl-and had it for breakfast(!) The recipe is perfectly balanced; the dark chicken (thigh) meat works as well as you said it would, the veggies harmonize perfectly, and the dumplings have exactly the right fluffiness and richness. I lacked chives and parsley for the dumplings, so I substituted the tops of green onions and dill weed and they were fine. My only extras were a bay leaf, a single clove of garlic cut in half, and a dash of cayenne, all in the gravy. My thanks to you and Joe for all the hard work on your videos! I've watched dozens of them now. The pacing is PERFECT and the high definition adds so much. You two are young world-beaters and I admire your ambition, personableness, and evident love of family and each other. Bless you both. -Don in Indiana

    Thank you, Laura! I made this recipe today for lunch. I have only made chicken and dumplings two times in my life. The first attempt was 15 years ago and it a complete fail because I didn't know you had a recipe to follow. Today's batch I followed your recipe and it was a HUGE home run. My fiance thanked me, and complimented the meal 4 times, and then went back for second helpings. A real delicious triumph. I owe it all to you.

  • @saundras8691

    If you want those dumplings a little fluffier and not so dense or 'gummy' from the steam dripping back down on them from under the lid, cover the pan with a towel, put the lid on that then bring corners of towel up so they stay away from the burner.
    Take lid off after cooked halfway and leave lid off to finish cooking. :) My mom always used Bisquik, and she taught me that trick. The first time I told my man I was going to make chicken and dumplings, he said he doesn't like them because they are always 'gummy' but after I gave him "the LOOK", he said he'd try mine. He could not believe how light and fluffy and NOT GUMMY they were!....H said I could make them any time and he'd EAT them.....Personally I like them a little 'gummy'! lol

    I'm a 5th generation Kentuckian and my great grandmother always made buttermilk drop dumplings, and omg they are so fluffy and so fantastic! Her recipe has passed down from her to my grandma, to my mom and now to me. My Mom makes killer dumplings and my best friends grandmothers dumplings are famous county wide! We boil a whole chicken cause we end up with a weeks worth of meals out of that one bird. Then for the dumplings we use flour and buttermilk and shortening and salt and pepper and some baking soda. We just mix it all up and drop it all in! I'm salivating just thinking about them!

    We're a southern family here, we don't add vegetables to what we call "Chicken and Paster", Mom does the flat strips of a kinda pastry dough she home makes with Shortening, flour, and water, she mixes that together and then rolls it out to about Quarter inch thick or thinner and cuts it into strips about 3 inches long, she then boils her chicken drains and then brings it to a boil again, takes out some of that broth mixes it with flour and adds it back in and begins to put in her paster strips

    Laura your recipe is lovely. Being older, and from the south, I must tell you that when chicken and dumplings were made by my grandmother, they were made when my she would kill a rooster, or an old chicken. The old chickens were tough, and they had to boil forever. The fatter they were the better. The grease would sit on the top of the pot. That's about all you could do with that old chicken, but good? You bet. Today thankfully we don't have to kill the old red roaster. I bought a package of red lobster biscuit mix and I tried making my dumplings with the flour mixture, (adding a bit of extra flour when I worked the dumplings) and then poured in the pack of garlic seasoning. Yum!

  • @ucantkeepup583

    Here's a lil secret for the dumplings...For those of you looking to make this recipe but dread making the dumplings from scratch or just want to speed up the process a bit, you can actually use a can of biscuit dough (w.e your favorite brand is, I like Grands biscuits kuz they have an almost buttery flavor which melds really well with the chicken/gravy).
    Just remove the dough from the tube, form dumplings to your preferred size & drop them into the water! Keep in mind that the smaller the dumplings the faster it will cook, so try to make the uniform in size. You want to do a "test dumpling" first so you can find out exactly how long they'll need to cook.
    Hope this helps!
    **This is closer to a more traditional Czech style dumpling so it's not going to have the seasoning like Laura's recipe does

    I made a huge batch of the chicken soup without the cream and dumplings, separated them in little containers for each meal. When I come home, I thaw out & heat a tub and as it boils, I add the cream and prepare the dumplings and scoop in the soup. It is like you just made it. It's so much easier for this working woman to feed the household.

    My family makes this completely different haha! What my dad does is red kidney beans, chicken and dumplings. Boil the red beans with green onions, and thyme. While that's going, he seasons the chicken with an herb mix, salt and pepper, and then fries them just to get a coating on them. Adds that to the red beans boiling, along with frozen sweet peas, a little bit of butter, carrots, and then gets started on the dumplings. What we do for the dumplings is just regular flour, salt, and water, and work that till the dough is soft. Cut the dough into small pieces and roll them into finger shapes. Bring that to a little boil, then puts it in the oven to finish cooking. Yes the pot gets a little dirty, but it tastes AAAMAZING!!!

    My folks made chicken and dumplings every Christmas Eve from when I was little. They used chicken thighs sautéed in a little oil and left them on the bone. Then they made noodles from flour and eggs, and cut them into squares (as opposed to strips, which were used in chicken noodle soup). These are dried in the oven for a bit and still have flour on them, which thickens the soup. Served with French bread.

    My family loves my chicken and dumplings. I start with only the cans of chicken breast you can buy near where they sell the tuna. I use about 8 cans. Then I add a gallon of cold tap water. I bring the pot to a boil. While it's boiling I add in 2 bags of salad croutons and few hunks of hardtack. I let that boil for about 10 minutes and remove heat. I serve it immediately while it's still almost boiling.

It takes me five or so hours on the back of the wood cook stove, minus butchering one of the meat birds. My family likes the slicker dumplings.

    When I make my chicken and dumplins...I put a whole chicken in a pot of water with salt and a whole onion in the morning and let it go for most of the day until chicken is done. Once done I take chicken dude out and let him cool until I need him again. During this time I season my broth with salt and maybe some chicken stock. when time I make dumplings using flour shortening, butter milk and a little salt make my dough and put it up in to pieces. Before this I have already deboned and shredded my chicken guy so it up the yummy bits back in to pot and warm it through and then I drop my dumplings and serve it with baked apples and veggie cassrole.

    Thank you so much Laura, I've learned how to cook many things from watching and learning from your videos. I'm American living abroad and your videos have showed how to survive by learning from people like you on how to cook. Again, thanks so much Lady!

    This is awesome--I just made this tonight using the last of my Thanksgiving turkey leftovers! I kept thinking how could the dumplings not be dense and soggy--but they were really light, fluffy and moist.

    I agree with you 100% about chicken and dumplings being comforting. It's like a warm hug on a spoon.
    I use Bell's poultry seasoning (which is a pain to find outside NE and the mid-Atlantic), and always add fresh dill in chicken soups, just like my Gramma Emma taught me.

    I have noticed that people in the states or uk use so little seasoning. Like if salt and paper would be the only spices that exsist. Why not add some paprika, herbs either fresh or dired, garlic, some granulated onion maybe etc. I have about 50 different herbs, spices and mixes of seasoning in my pantry. If I would season any meat with salt and peper only it would have no flavour at all for me.

      Then by all means: ADD the Italian seasoning! Like Simon & Garfunkel recommended: Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme! Laura added it also.

      salt and paper? I've never tried that before, I've tried salt and pepper but never salt and paper, I've also never met anyone in the U.K. and the states that uses paper as seasoning, we use it for writing but never seasoning, I wonder if it gives it a woodsy taste from the trees paper comes from.

    For thinks like pot pie we always use bone-in skin on breasts and roast them in the oven, then remove the skin and pull off the chicken... the chicken ends up tender and juicy this way and it is little fuss... occasionally I will poach chicken breasts for chicken and dumplings, but I think it tastes better with the roasted breasts. We don't like dark meat here. I always make my dumplings with buttermilk, I've never tried it without... might give this a go next time...

    Laura, I had been cooking all of three weeks. My first try at beef stew was just okay. My second try at chili was better than the stew but again just okay. Then I saw your beef tacos and they turn out the bomb. I will check out you beef stew next time and chili next time. This Sunday I will do your chicken and dumplins. Your video smells great. Wish me luck I think I found a new hobby!

    My dad makes THE BEST chicken and dumplings I've ever had. Its so simple and delicious. For our dumplings, we only do flour, eggs, and water. They absorb the other flavors in the broth. We just do big blobs with a fork in ours to make them each have their own unique fluffy 'cloud' shape :)

      We make them like this at home, but I recently found out my mom will take some of the chicken broth out of the pot and use it to replace about half the water. It gives your dumplings an even better taste! I'd definitely recommend trying it!

    My mom has left us now for almost 14 years. She never put veggies in hers and only use all propose and the chicken broth so the dumplings would have some favor. She never used baking soda or baking power. She rolled the dough out to about 1/2 inch and cut strips about 3 inches. put them in the broth to let cook for a few minutes w Added butter and cream the chicken was last. That was it and It was great chicken and dumplings.

    This dumpling recipe is very similar to one that I've used for years. We have tweaked it over time so that instead of 1 cup of milk, I use 1/3 cup of the broth and 2/3 cup of milk. And I will sometimes put about a 1/4 teaspoon of poultry seasoning in with the dry ingredients. It gives a great flavor to the dumplings.
