Crocktober Day 2! This is the homemade comfort food nobody makes from scratch anymore, but should. Real dumplings, real broth, no canned soup (but still super easy!) 1 cup diced yellow onion 1 cup diced carrots 1 cup diced celery 4 cloves garlic, minced 1 teaspoon kosher salt ½ teaspoon black pepper 1 teaspoon dried parsley ¼ teaspoon dried thyme 3 cups chicken stock 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breast, trimmed 1 cup whole milk 4 tablespoons cornstarch 6 ounces frozen peas Dumplings: 1 cup all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking powder ½ teaspoon salt ½ cup whole milk 2 tablespoons vegetable oil Add the onion, carrots, celery, garlic, salt, pepper, parsley, and thyme to a 6-quart slow cooker. Pour in the chicken stock and stir, then place the chicken on top. Cover and cook on high for 2.5 to 3 hours or low for 4.5 to 5 hours, until the chicken hits 165°F and the veggies are tender. Remove the chicken, let it rest 5 minutes, then shred it and return it to the pot. Turn the heat to high. Whisk the milk and cornstarch into a slurry, stir it in, and let everything simmer for 15 to 20 minutes until slightly thickened. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt for the dumplings, then stir in the milk and oil until just combined. Stir in the peas, then drop the dumpling dough in by the heaping tablespoon, about 12 to 13 dumplings. Cover and cook on high for 1 to 1.5 hours, until puffed and cooked through. Serve warm with a little extra salt, pepper, and parsley. #crockpotchicken #chickenanddumplingsrecipe #crocktober #comfortfood
