Recipe: Chicken And Dumplings With Einkorn Biscuits

Ingredients:
– 1 whole chicken, cut into pieces
– 2 celery stalks, chopped
– 2 carrots, peeled and sliced
– 1 onion, diced
– 4 cups chicken broth
– 1 cup milk
– 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
– 2 teaspoons salt
– 1 teaspoon black pepper
– 1 teaspoon dried thyme
– 1 bay leaf

For the Einkorn Biscuits:
– 2 cups einkorn flour
– 1 tablespoon baking powder
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
– 3/4 cup buttermilk

Instructions:

1. In a large pot, combine the chicken pieces, celery, carrots, onion, chicken broth, salt, pepper, thyme, and bay leaf. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 40 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.

2. Remove the chicken pieces from the pot and set them aside to cool. Discard the bay leaf. In a small bowl, whisk together the flour and milk until smooth. Slowly pour the mixture into the pot, stirring constantly to thicken the broth.

3. While the broth simmers, shred the cooked chicken into bite-sized pieces and return them to the pot. Continue to simmer, uncovered, while you prepare the einkorn biscuits.

4. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

5. In a large bowl, whisk together the einkorn flour, baking powder, and salt. Add the cold butter cubes and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

6. Slowly pour in the buttermilk and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.

7. Turn the dough out onto a well-floured surface and gently pat it down to about 1-inch thickness. Use a round biscuit cutter to cut out biscuits and place them on the prepared baking sheet.

8. Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown.

9. Serve hot bowls of the chicken and dumplings topped with a freshly baked einkorn biscuit. Enjoy the cozy flavors and comforting warmth of this homemade meal with your loved ones.
