Rustic Chicken Pot Pie with Dumplings

Rustic Chicken Pot Pie with Dumplings is a hearty and comforting dish that is perfect for any occasion. This dish is a classic combination of tender chicken, vegetables, and fluffy dumplings, all baked together in a rich and creamy sauce.
To make this delicious dish, you will need the following ingredients:

For the filling:

- 4 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 2 cups frozen mixed vegetables
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- Salt and pepper, to taste

For the dumplings:

- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup butter, chilled and cubed
- 3/4 cup milk
To start, preheat your oven to 375°F. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the frozen vegetables and cook for another 5 minutes. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir to combine. Slowly pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring constantly. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until thickened, about 5 minutes. Add the shredded chicken and season with salt and pepper to taste.
To make the dumplings, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Cut in the chilled butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the milk until a soft dough forms.
Pour the chicken mixture into a 9x13 inch baking dish. Drop spoonfuls of the dumpling dough on top of the chicken mixture. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the dumplings are golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
This Rustic Chicken Pot Pie with Dumplings is the perfect comfort food for any occasion. The creamy filling is rich and flavorful, while the fluffy dumplings add a satisfying texture to the dish. This dish is perfect for a cozy night in or a family gathering.
