Chicken and Dumpling Casserole
Yield: 4 Servings
Ingredients:
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- ¾ cup chopped onion
- 1 ¼ cups chopped carrots
- ¾ cup chopped celery
- 3 cups chicken broth
- 3 tablespoons flour
- 2 ½ cups chopped rotisserie chicken
- 1 ¼ cups frozen peas
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
Dumplings-
- 1 cup flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 egg
- 1/3 cup milk
Directions:
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, carrots, and celery. Saute until tender. Add the flour and ¼ cup of the chicken broth. Stir until the mixture thickens and then slowly add the rest of the chicken broth. Cook over medium heat until the sauce thickens, about 3 minutes. Add the chicken, peas, salt and pepper.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Pour the chicken mixture into a baking dish.
- To prepare the dumplings—in a medium bowl add flour, baking powder and salt. Whisk until well combined. Add egg and milk and mix with a wooden spoon until just combined. Drop the dough over the chicken mixture with a spoon (the dough will make about 8 dumplings).
- Place into the oven and bake for 15 minutes or until the dumplings are golden brown.
