Chicken & Dumplings Picts!
(Why, yes, I'm still sick and why, no, I'm not feeling up for doing any housework or anything else on this rainy sick day)
Here are picts of the chicken & dumplings I made tonight, recipe here.
Here's the pie crust dough rolled out and being cut
Usually I drop the dough into the boiling chicken and veg stew, but since I used the slow cooker I dropped the dough into a pot with some of the stew's juices instead. It's hard to tell from the photo but the dough kind of puffs up a bit.
While I'm doing that, the chook and veg merrily hung out together in the slowcooker. This is before I chopped up the chicken so you see the 2 boneless breasts boiling away. (Note, I'd removed a good amount of the juice to be able to boil the dough. There had been more stew juice in there until I put it in the pot)
When the dough was cooked (about 20 to 30 minutes on low heat), I added it back to the slow cooker to cook together for a little longer. You can see the shredded/chopped chicken in this one.
Yummm, the finished product
