About Chicken stew with dumplings

Chicken Stew with Dumplings is a hearty, comforting dish often associated with American Southern cuisine, though variations exist worldwide. This classic meal features a rich, flavorful stew made with tender chicken, vegetables such as carrots, celery, and onions, and a savory broth thickened with flour or cream. The dumplings, typically made from flour, baking powder, milk, and sometimes butter or shortening, are dropped into the simmering stew and cooked until fluffy. Nutritiously, the dish provides protein from the chicken and vitamins from the vegetables, making it a wholesome option. However, the dumplings can be calorie-dense due to their refined flour and fat content, and the cream or butter in the recipe adds extra saturated fats. Opting for whole-grain dumplings, reducing added fats, and using lean chicken can make the dish a healthier choice while retaining its signature comforting qualities.
