Ingredients
- 3 skinless, boneless chicken breasts, uncooked
- 2/3 cup finely chopped onion
- 1 cup coarsely chopped celery
- 1 cup sliced carrots, 1/8-inch thick
- 1/2 tsp. dried, crumbled sage
- freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 2 cups chicken broth
Dumplings
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 T. vegetable oil
- 1 cup flour
- 2 tsp. baking powder
- 1/4 tsp. salt
Preparation
In a medium bowl, whisk together milk and oil. Gradually stir in flour, baking powder and salt until a soft dough forms. Set aside.
Cut each chicken breast in half, and place halves in the bottom of an oiled, 11⁄2-quart casserole dish or 8- by 8-inch glass baking dish. Cover chicken with onion, celery and carrots. Sprinkle sage and
pepper over vegetables; pour broth over all.
Distribute 2-inch balls of the dumpling dough evenly over the casserole. Cover tightly and bake at 325 degrees F for 90 minutes.
Serves 4.
