Homemade Chicken and Dumplings For One, the ultimate comfort food!

Slightly brothy, slightly creamy, with the most delectable dumplings. Prepare dumplings and set them aside for a few minutes.

Instructions to make Chicken and Dumplings:
  1. Melt the butter with the olive oil over a medium/high heat. Season the chicken with a little salt and pepper. Over 2 batches brown the chicken on all sides and transfer to a clean plant and set aside.
  2. Using the same pot add the carrots, onions and celery. Stir and fry for 3-4 minutes over a low/medium heat. Add in the turmeric and thyme, then pour in the broth. Stir and add the chicken back into the pot. Cover with a lid and simmer for around 20 minutes.
  3. In the meantime while the chicken is simmering prepare the dumpling batter. Sift together into a bowl the flour, cornmeal, salt and baking powder. Then add the half and half and gently stir together until combined. Set aside. (Substitute for half and half: Mix 1 tsp of melted butter per 1/4 cup of milk)
  4. Remove the chicken pieces from the pot and set aside on a plate. Using two forks remove the chicken from the bones and shred it. Remove most of the chicken skin aswell. Return the shredded chicken to the pot. Mix together the half and half and flour and then add it into the pot and stir to combine. Check seasoning, add more salt and pepper if needed.
  5. Using a tablespoon drop the dumpling batter into the pot one by one. Sprinkle with the parsley. Cover again with the lid and allow to simmer for another 15 minutes. Allow to rest for 10-15 minutes before serving.

Shake the pot gently in a circular motion to submerge dumplings in stock. Add the chicken and cook until browned on both sides. For the dumplings: While the chicken is simmering, make the dough for the dumplings. Drop tablespoons of dumpling dough into the simmering pot. Add the minced parsley if using.
