Chicken And Dumpling Soup Recipes

Steps:

• In a blender or food processor, combine 3 cups cooked chicken, eggs, 3/4 cup chicken broth, 1 cup flour, parsley, 2 teaspoons salt, pepper and tarragon. Process until smooth.
• In a large pot, bring 4 cups chicken broth to a boil. Drop dumpling mixture by rounded spoonfuls into boiling broth. Simmer, uncovered, 5 to 8 minutes, until well formed and slightly browned. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Reserve dumpling cooking liquid.
• In a large pot melt butter over medium heat. Cook onion, celery and garlic in butter until onion is translucent. Stir in 1/2 cup flour until fully incorporated. Pour in 2 quarts chicken broth, stirring constantly. Bring to a boil. Introduce 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and carrots. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes.
• Stir in dumplings, reserved liquid and 3 cups cooked chicken. Simmer 15 minutes more before serving.

Steps:

• Start out by putting together the dough for your dumplings. Mix together the flour, salt and baking powder. Then slowly add in your ice water. Keep adding it in until you have enough to form a nice dough ball. Knead your dough for about 5 minutes and then set it the side and let it rest while you work on the other end of the soup.
• In a large pot add together your stock, chicken, carrots, celery, garlic, basil, oregano, and celery salt. Heat it up on medium heat and let the chicken cook through. When the chicken is cooked, remove it and set it to the side.
• Now grab up your dough and roll it out about 1/4" thick with your rolling pin. Cut it into small squares and place them in your hot broth. As they cook up, they will rise to the top of the broth.
• While your dumplings are cooking, go ahead and shred your chicken up. Add it to your soup. Last but not least, add in the half and half and give it a couple swirls around the pan to incorporate everything together.

Steps:

• Place first 8 ingredients in a Dutch oven and simmer for 15 minutes.
• Add vegetables and simmer until vegetables are just tender (20 min.).
• Mix Bisquik and milk to make drop biscuits.
• Drop by large spoonfuls into soup which has been brought to a rolling boil.
• Cover and reduce heat to simmer for 20 minutes, or until dumplings are done.
• (Be sure to remove bay leaf and cloves.).

Steps:

• Heat the vegetable oil in a large saucepan oil over medium-high. Add the ginger, garlic, scallions and celery and cook, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the chicken broth and 2 cups water, bring to a simmer and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.
• Add the frozen dumplings or wontons, bok choy, chicken and soy sauce and simmer until warmed through, 3 to 5 minutes; season with salt. Divide the soup among 4 bowls, then drizzle with sesame oil and top with scallions.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a 6-quart pot over medium heat. Add the garlic, carrots, celery root, turnip, rutabaga, onion, diced fennel and a large pinch of salt; cook until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.
• Add the wine, 6 cups water, fennel seeds, thyme and bay leaves; bring to a simmer. Add the chicken and simmer for 2 hours. Remove the chicken and let cool. Pick off the meat in shreds; set aside.
• About 15 minutes before the chicken has finished simmering, prepare the dumplings: Combine the milk, chicken fat, 1 tablespoon tarragon, the nutmeg and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a medium saucepan; bring to a simmer over medium heat. Remove from heat; add the flour and stir vigorously with a wooden spoon until the liquid is absorbed. Whisk in the eggs, one at a time, to make a thick dough.
• Bring the soup to a boil. Form the dough into eight dumplings (an ice cream scoop is perfect for this); drop into the soup. Cover and cook until the dumplings float to the surface, about 10 minutes.
• Add the chicken meat, parsley and the remaining 1 tablespoon tarragon to the soup; stir carefully and divide among warm bowls.

Steps:

• In a small amount of cooking oil sweat the onion, carrots and celery. Add chicken, broth, green beans, barley, celery salt, parsley and bay leaves. Simmer until the barley is tender, about 30 minutes.
• Bring the milk and butter to a boil, add salt and nutmeg. Remove from heat and immediately add flour stirring until dough leaves the sides of the pan. Incorporate the eggs, 1 at a time, forming a sticky dough.
• Season the soup, to taste, with salt and pepper. Add spoon sized balls of dumpling dough and simmer until dumplings rise.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven or pot over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring, until the onions begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, vinegar and thyme and stir until most of the vinegar has evaporated, about 2 minutes. Add the carrots, celery, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper and cook, stirring, until soft, about 6 minutes. Add the broth, 4 cups of water, chicken breasts and cannellini beans, bring to a high simmer and cook until the chicken is tender and cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Carefully remove the cooked chicken and set aside until cool enough to handle. Add the quinoa to the pot and cook until translucent and tender and the threadlike germ wraps around each kernel, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, remove and discard the chicken skin and bones. Shred the meat into bite-size pieces and add back to the soup. Add the frozen beans.
• Make the dumplings . Stir together the flour, parsley, eggs, milk, baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Put half the batter into a perforated colander; holding the colander just over the simmering soup, scrape and work the batter through the holes with a rubber spatula, letting the tiny dumplings drop into the soup. Cook until the dumplings float, stirring to break up any large clumps, about 1 minute. Repeat with the remaining batter. Adjust the consistency of the soup with more water if desired and season with salt if needed.

Steps:

• For the soup stock: Combine the chicken, peppercorns, bay leaves, garlic, thyme, carrot chunks, celery chunks, quartered onion, parsnip chunks, 3 sprigs dill and 3 sprigs parsley in a large pot. Add cold water to cover by 2 inches (about 5 quarts). Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Simmer, uncovered, until the chicken is very tender, for at least 1 1/2 hours (or up to 2 hours if you have the time. The longer the better!) Add more water, as needed, skimming off scum (there won't be much) and, if desired, some fat.
• Carefully strain the stock, discarding everything except for the chicken. (You should have 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 quarts of stock.) Set the chicken aside to cool briefly while you put together the rest of the soup. Return the strained stock to the pot and bring it to a simmer. Add the sliced carrot, sliced celery, chopped onion, sliced parsnip, chopped dill, chopped parsley and the salt. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Simmer, covered, for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, prepare the dumplings: In a small saucepan, bring the butter and 3/4 cup water to a boil. Remove from the heat and stir in the flour. Let cool for a few minutes so it's not so hot that it will cook the eggs, then whisk in the salt, sugar, nutmeg and the eggs, one at a time, until incorporated into a slightly lumpy thick batter. (It'll take a little work to whisk in the eggs.)
• Drop heaping teaspoons of the dumpling mixture into the simmering soup, then cover and cook until the vegetables are tender and the dumplings are cooked through; begin checking for doneness at 15 minutes.
• Pull the chicken meat off the bones and chop into bite-sized pieces. Season it with salt, then add it to the soup along with the ground black pepper. Taste and add more salt as needed. This is important: The amount of salt in a chicken soup can mean the difference between unappetizing chicken tea and the elixir of bubble love that it should be. So don't skip this step, and don't rush it, either. Taste your soup, and if it doesn't make you smile reflexively, add more salt, about a 1/2 teaspoon of it, and give it a few good stirs so it can dissolve. Taste and repeat, as needed, until it tastes good.
• Serve, garnishing with fresh parsley.

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, stir together 1 cup all purpose flour and 1 tsp salt. Make a well in the center, and add the egg and egg yolk, beaten. Stir together until well incorporated. Add water, 1 Tbsp at a time, and stir until dough forms a ball. Turn onto a floured surface, and add flour as needed while kneading until smooth. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
• In a stock pot, melt the butter, and add the celery, green onions and garlic. Cook and stir for several minutes on medium heat until celery begins to become translucent. Add the chicken, cook and stir about 5-10 minutes more, until chicken is cooked through. Add stock, ginger, parsley, dill and thyme, Simmer over medium heat while preparing noodles.
• Place chilled dough onto floured surface, sprinkle flour on top, and roll out to about 1/8 inch thickness (may need to add more flour as you go to keep rolling pin from sticking). Using a knife or a pizza cutter, slice dough into long strips, gently pick up strips and lay them on a dish towel to dry. After about 15-20 minutes, cut the strips into desired lengths. I prefer about 1 1/2-2 inches long. Place the noodles into the simmering stock. Cover and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until noodles are done. Add the peas, and cook an addition 5-10 minutes. If you desire a thicker soup, dissolve the 2 Tbsp cornstarch in warm water, and stir in to soup. Cook an additional 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Combine chicken, celery, carrots, onion, chicken broth, parsley, chicken bouillon granules, salt and pepper in a large pan or dutch oven; add enough water to cover chicken.

• Pour the chicken stock, bring soup to the boil, reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes or until the vegetables are cooked
• Meanwhile, mix all the ingredients for the dumplings. You will end up with sticky batter.
• Rinse a teaspoon under cold water. It will help the batter to come off the spoon more easily.Dip a teaspoon of batter into the pot with simmering soup and let it fell off the spoon. Repeat the process with the remaining batter.
• When the dumplings float to the top of the soup, simmer another minute until ready. Check seasoning with salt and pepper and serve sprinkled with herbs.

Steps:

• *NOTE: I have used leftover cooked rice for this soup recipe. Add the cooked rice right before adding the dumpling batter to the pot. Do not add the cooked rice at the onset or it will turn to mush.
• In a large soup pot, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter until hot and saute the mushrooms, celery and carrots until tender.
• Stir in the chicken stock, chicken meat, green peas, par-boiled rice, thyme, and black pepper. Bring to a boil.
• Meanwhile, prepare the dumplings. In small bowl beat together the eggs, 1/4 cup melted butter or margarine, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Stir in the flour.
• Once the soup has come to a boil, drop the dumplings batter from a small greased or buttered spoon to make 16 mounds on top of the soup. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, about 10 minutes or until dumplings are cooked and "light".
• Adjust seasoning before serving. Say a blessing and open wide.
