I have been working on a recipe for Chicken & Dumplings since it is one of my husband's favorites. He does not have to live by the gluten free diet but does because the house is gluten free. I enjoy surprising him with food he can not tell is gluten free. The recipes I have looked through for Chicken and Dumplings all call for Cream of Chicken soup. If you look at the cans of Cream of anything you will see it contains gluten. I found a recipe for homemade Cream of Chicken Soup and adapted it (http://tammysrecipes.com/homemade_cream_chicken_soup). This will be good frozen for future use as needed.
Yields about 2 cans so you can freeze the extra or double it and have a bunch to freeze. 1.5 cups =1 can.
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups chicken stock
- 1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning (if you don't have Poultry Seasoning you can make your own)
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder - (if you don't have any you can grind up dried onion flakes) - you can use diced onions as long as you boil them in the broth a few minutes more
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder - you can used minced garlic just boil with the broth a few minutes more
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon salt (or less, to taste)
- 1/4 teaspoon parsley
- dash of paprika
- 1 1/2 cups milk (can use unsweetened soy or unsweetened coconut)
- 3/4 cup flour (I used C4C Flour)
Directions:
In medium sized pan, boil chicken broth, 1/2 cup milk and seasonings for a minute or two. (longer if using fresh onion or garlic)
In a bowl, whisk together the remaining 1 cup of milk and flour. Add to boiling mixture and continue whisking briskly until mixture boils and thickens. If you like, you can add more seasoning to your taste. (i.e. lemon paper or seasoning salt)
