Chicken and Dumplings with Sage

Course: Main Course
Keyword: chicken, dumplings
Servings: 0

Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons canola oil
  • 1 pound s uncooked boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1/2 teaspoon table salt
  • 1 medium onion s, chopped
  • 2 medium carrot s, chopped
  • 2 stalk s (medium) celery, chopped
  • 3 1/2 cup s reduced-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 medium uncooked potato es, russet, (8-ounces), cubed
  • 1/4 cup s uncooked string beans, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 cup s frozen green peas
  • 1 2/3 cup s Bisquick® Reduced-Fat Baking Mix, all-purpose, or other brand
  • 2/3 cup s fat-free skim milk
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons dried sage or 1 teaspoon chopped fresh sage
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper coarsely ground

Instructions

  • Heat 1 teaspoon of the oil in a nonstick Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the chicken; sprinkle with the salt and cook, turning occasionally, until browned, about 6 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a bowl; set aside.
  • Add remaining 1 teaspoon oil to the same Dutch oven, then add the onion, carrots, and celery. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften and brown slightly, about 6 minutes. Add the broth and potato; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, until the potato is almost tender, about 10 minutes. Add green beans and cook until crisp-tender, about 6 minutes. Stir in the browned chicken and the peas; heat through, about 2 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, to prepare the dumplings, combine the baking mix, milk, sage, and pepper in a bowl until a soft dough forms.
  • Drop the dough, by rounded tablespoons, onto the simmering stew, making a total of 6 dumplings. Simmer, uncovered, 10 minutes. Then cover and simmer until the dumplings have doubled in size and are cooked through, about 10 minutes longer. Yields 1 cup stew with 1 dumpling per serving.

Notes

Notes
Sage gives the dumplings a flavor reminiscent of stuffing and goes well with this comforting stew.
I don't always use the sage.
