test kitchen favorite chicken and dumplings
Ingredients
Ingredient Checklist
2 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (4 to 5)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 stick (8 tablespoons) cold unsalted butter
1 onion, diced (1 1/2 cups)
3 carrots, diced (1 1/4 cups)
1 stalk celery, diced (1/2 cup)
8 ounces white potato, peeled if desired and cut into 1/2-inch dice (1 1/2 cups)
1 1/4 teaspoons dried thyme
1 2/3 cups plus 1/4 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1 cup partially defrosted frozen peas
6 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, plus more for serving
2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 cup whole milk
Lemon wedges, for serving
Variations
Our recipe works with precooked, shredded rotisserie or roast chicken, too: Start with step 2, enlisting premade or store-bought broth (such as Swanson Natural Goodness 33-Percent Less Sodium), and swap the raw chicken for an equal amount of cooked.For a seasonal shortcut, lean on Thanksgiving leftovers – stock and roasted turkey are made for this homey dish.

Ingredients
Ingredients
- 2 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (4 to 5)
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
- 1 stick (8 tablespoons) cold unsalted butter
- 1 onion, diced (1 1/2 cups)
- 3 carrots, diced (1 1/4 cups)
- 1 stalk celery, diced (1/2 cup)
- 8 ounces white potato, peeled if desired and cut into 1/2-inch dice (1 1/2 cups)
- 1 1/4 teaspoons dried thyme
- 1 2/3 cups plus 1/4 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
- 1 cup partially defrosted frozen peas
- 6 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, plus more for serving
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 3/4 cup whole milk
- Lemon wedges, for serving
Directions
Combine chicken, 2 teaspoons salt, and 4 cups water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, partially covered, until chicken is cooked, about 20 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate; let cool 10 minutes. Discard skin and bones; shred meat into bite-size pieces (you should have 3 cups). Strain broth (you should have 4 cups; if not, add more water).
Melt 4 tablespoons butter in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add onion, carrots, celery, potato, and thyme. Cook, stirring, until onion is translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup flour; cook 30 seconds. Gradually stir in broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and simmer 2 minutes. Stir in chicken, peas, and 3 tablespoons parsley. Season with salt and pepper.
Meanwhile, whisk together remaining 1 2/3 cups flour, 3 tablespoons parsley, baking powder, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 3/4 teaspoon pepper. Cut in remaining 4 tablespoons butter. Stir in milk until dough holds together. Drop 8 heaping spoonfuls of dough on top of chicken mixture. Cover and simmer until dumplings are cooked through, about 12 minutes. Serve with more chopped parsley and lemon wedges.
