Ingredients

  • 2 Tablespoons Butter
  • 1 Onion, diced
  • 3 Celery Stalks, diced
  • 3 Carrots, cut into coins
  • 4 Cups Water
  • 4 Teaspoons Better Than Bouillon Chicken Base
  • 3 Tablespoons Butter, melted
  • 3 Tablespoons Flour
  • 23 Cups Rotisserie Chicken, shredded
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Onion Powder
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Poultry Seasoning
  • 1 Cup Flour
  • 2 Teaspoons Baking Powder
  • 1 Teaspoon White Sugar
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Salt
  • 4 Tablespoons Butter
  • 1/2 Cup Milk, warmed

Instructions

  1. Bring the water to a boil in a microwave-safe bowl or saucepan. Stir in the chicken bouillon base until dissolved.
  2. In a large Dutch oven, sauté the onion, celery, and carrots in 2 tablespoons butter until softened. Stir in the onion powder, garlic powder, and poultry seasoning.
  3. Pour the bouillon mixture into the Dutch oven and simmer for about 10 minutes.
  4. Mix 3 tablespoons flour with 3 tablespoons melted butter. Whisk into the vegetable broth mixture until thickened. Stir in the shredded rotisserie chicken.
  5. In a small bowl, combine 1 cup flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Cut in 4 tablespoons butter using a pastry cutter or two forks until crumbly.
  6. Add the warmed milk and stir just until combined.
  7. Drop the dumpling dough by small spoonfuls into the simmering stew. Cover and cook for 15 minutes, or until the dumplings are cooked through.
  8. Serve hot and enjoy.

Notes

  • Use leftover cooked chicken if rotisserie chicken is unavailable.
  • Keep the pot covered while the dumplings cook to ensure they steam properly.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Add extra broth if a thinner consistency is desired.
