My maternal grandmother made wonderful chicken and dumplings when we came to visit. As she got older into her eighties it was too much for her. So when we came to see her she always liked to go to McDonald's. Bless her heart 💜
My grandma cooked so good too but she'd also LOVE her some McDonald's lol it was so funny, she was so old fashioned and prim & proper so she felt ashamed to be seen eating McDonald's 🤣 She'd kinda whisper to me " Lord, Stephanie im wanting me a big mac, do you wanna go with me?" LoL like a lady shouldnt be seen eating such things lol 😆 She passed last October and i got as many of her recipes as i could to cherish 😍
HOORAY, I made this today! It came out sooo sooo delicious. I had watched this video this morning, not even looking for it. My mouth began to water while watching. I hadn't had chicken and dumplings in YEARS. My mom made them quite a lot when I was growing up. I had everything needed and decided to make. I did however, forget to add the egg to the batter, and it was still on POINT! It was so easy. I'll be making this more often. Thank you 🍲💕
I'm Brazilian and I made it at home! Worked out really well!! Tip: cook the chicken breast in a pressure cook, remove the water and then shake the pressure cook violently (with the chicken inside of course). Instant shred chicken!
I've made your recipe twice, and we love it! My hubby RAVED about it!! I did cheat and bought refrigerator biscuits instead of making my dumplings from scratch, HOWEVER we are currently sick and I made this for comfort food. It's almost gone (literally the only thing we could eat yesterday and today) and I feel like I need to make more! So if I am feeling up to it, I plan on making more tomorrow (we are expecting snow and ice and it just sounds like a day made for this recipe), and I don't have refrigerator biscuits so I will be following your recipe to make even the dumplings from scratch. Thank you a million times!!!!
Have a glass or quart of water next to your cutting board when cutting onions. I dont know why but its always worked for me (or usually), an old Mexican prep cook I worked with told me that.
when an onion is cut, it releases chemicals that sticks into nearest wet surfaces, so having a water nearby can help to absorb those before reaching ur eye
I realize this is 2 years old and you might not check back, but... I just watched another guy to C&D; he put his cooked chicken in his kitchen aid and the beater shredded it really well! I like your dumplings recipe better. Off to the grocery store. thanks!
Thanks Farideh! Made this tonight and it’s amazing, especially while looking at the snow outside. I also got laid because of this meal, so a double thanks!
I'm sure there will be many posts staring with, "My mom made this when I was a kid..." and now it's my turn! She died when I was 22 so I don't have a recipe but they look exactly like I remember though I am sure these will be 100% better tasting with the herbs. She might have used Bisquick? It's fall, rainy, and damp - looking forward to making your dumplings. Thank you for the recipe and sharing it with us.
I'm glad she made this type of dumpling. This is how my Mom made chicken and dumplings. When I moved to Texas years ago and ordered chicken and dumplings, they served me chicken and thick noodles. I was not impressed...
You are so funny and REAL! I love the Tetris comparison...I was trying to box our Nativity Scene yesterday and I made the comment, "it's like Tetris"! I love your tutorials and I want to make this for our Super Staff meeting on Tuesday! Thank You and LVY
I fancy myself a good cook and am always looking for new recipes. I was looking up Chicken & Dumplings as I'm making it for Christmas Dinner. I came across this video. I'm tossing you a like and follow because you said "I fucking hate myself for making this right now" 😂 I shred chicken all the time & have said this to myself. Bravo for being honest.
Making this tonight! Looks so delicious!! I always shred chicken in my kitchen aid mixer or with a hand held mixer. Works every time! I felt the same way about shredding chicken until I learned that trick
Apparently, if you refrigerate the onions it stops them from making you cry. I refrigerate mine and they never made me cry until I bought one fresh and I was trying to figure out why suddenly I was in tears.
You can use the leaves of the celery. Pull them off before removing any rough tips of the stalk and add them to the dish in the latter half. The dark leafy green give a nice flavor and added nutrients.
This is the right way. I watched half a dozen videos where they roll out the dough on the countertop (no), use biscuit mix (no), use margarine (no). Only thing I'd add: dip your spoon in the soup & and use the wet spoon to scoop the dough.Then wet it again and scoop again.
Finished the recipe today and it tasted great! Dumplings were a bit large but did not have an ice cream scoop. Overall very flavorful and chef's kiss for home cooking. Rofl I also wished could cook the dumplings separately then put into broth.
I used the recipe for the dumpling and damn good. That was the first time I made dumplings from scratch, I usually use biscuits but not any more. I didn't add the celery and carrots but I'm sure it would have tasted great that way also.
You know what I forgot how good and simple chicken and dumplings are. Thanks for doing this vid. The idea of using cake flour to make a lighter dumpling is great. I don't think I ever would have thought of that. Thanks again. Have a great day. 😃👍🍷 Sicily.
me too! my mom used bisquick as well but now I am a fine strapping adult and I make my damn dumplings from scratch! really, almost as easy as bisquick. also I put fresh parsley AND chives in my dumplings. world's best comfort food! this is my first visit to this channel, I love her subtle, but laugh out loud humor! subscribed.
Yep, my mom made it with Bisquick too. Growing up It was a favorite at my house. One time my sister ate the whole pot before dinner, mom was sooo mad at her! RIP mom
OMG...I made this today and let me tell you, it was everything. So full of flavor. Thank you for sharing. I feel like my mom just made this for me. Yummy 😋 😋 😋.. Blessings
i finally convinced my husband to try chicken and dumplings, which he claims to have hated since childhood, because "they are doughy gut bombs". my statements of, "but honey, mine always come out like clouds!" couldn't sway him. finally, finally, i convinced him to at least try. this recipe was so yummy he ate two huge portions for dinner, and two more for lunch the next day. and, i have to agree, this recipe was absolutely dreamy! i added 2 bay leaves and some thyme to the stock, and the flavors melded so beautifully with the cream. thank you for this wonderful recipe!
Well, I didn't have the chives or parsley, but the mix turned out nice for the dumplings. I just added some garlic salt and pepper for flavoring. I'll be using your recipe again, next time will have the chives and parsley, or whatever it was...lol Thank You :) Gotta Eat Now :)
Easy tip that levels up chicken n dumplings, add a can of cream of chicken soup! Makes them creamy, thick, and delicious. Just like the way my great grandma used to do it :P
I love to cook- and this is a great recipe. Thanks for posting~ having guests for dinner next week and who doesn't love chicken and dumplings with a small salad? Again...thank you!
When Farideh said Sicilly, I initially thought she was chugging the chicken stock!
Same
Hah! I did too.
Yup, me to. 😄
So what it was? :D
Yummy food Thank you !
Producer - what kind of music were you thinking for this cooking video?
Editor - ...Porno Jazz?
Producer - PERFECT
Haha
💀💀💀💀💀

"This is why people have children. I don't want kids but if did I would make them shred the chicken." LMAO
I'll gladly shred my own chicken. :-)
Lol, soooo funny!
My kids refuse. I need to trade them in.

My mom used to make me shred the chicken all the time as a kid lol
Child labor amirite
There's something about viciously tearing apart flesh or a whole carcass with your hands that makes it oddly therapeutic.
My mom still makes me shred the chicken and I’m a 32 year old lady!
my mom grounded me because i shredded the chicken before she killed it.
Be glad your mama is around.. mine is in a nursing home 😔 😢
Best trick to avoid onion tears, after you peel it, cut in half and rinse with cold water before cutting into it
2:57 who else thought that she was drinking the chicken stock instead of wine?
I'm Brazilian and I made it at home! Worked out really well!! Tip: cook the chicken breast in a pressure cook, remove the water and then shake the pressure cook violently (with the chicken inside of course). Instant shred chicken!
thanks !
7:08 makes me giggle like I was back in middle school. D U M P A C T I O N
The tops of the celery ( ie: leaves) have so much flavor. I never throw them away! 😮❤
Yeah, that upset me when she threw them away like that!
I add the celery leaves chopped to the stock for flavor not tossing in the bin, plus fresh peas.
ok chef
I love Farideh but it hurt to see her throw away those celery leafs.
Those celery leaves are pure flavour! Never toss em out.
Pretty good point actually
Am I the only one who doesn’t care for peas in soups or stews? They’re pure texture and 0% flavor. Especially frozen. Seems worthless to me.
I'm so glad Farideh has a camera operator again, it's a different energy she exerts and I love it!
first it was peter now its ian.
WHITE LIVES MATTER
This is the recipe my dad wanted before he passed. Good job!
it's not often that i see a cooking video and then decide to make the recipe for dinner that night, but god dammit that sounds good
update: IT WAS DELICIOUS and i finished the leftovers for lunch today
After seeing this video and reading your comment I HAVE to try this recipe now.
All bow to the not often recepie maker
I've made your recipe twice, and we love it! My hubby RAVED about it!!

Thank you a million times!!!!
I'm sorry but there's nothing like canned biscuits. Idk why but they're the best biscuits I've ever had and I'm southern
love it!!! x
Made this for dinner tonight. It was awesome. Just finished eating and I'm ready to hibernate for the winter 😴
Memories of going to grandma's house and she would always make this when I asked.
I used to get so excited when I saw her make it.
Have a glass or quart of water next to your cutting board when cutting onions. I dont know why but its always worked for me (or usually), an old Mexican prep cook I worked with told me that.
To drink? I've heard advice from people who work with children to give them a cup of water if they cry, bc apparently drinking water stops you crying
I'm a cook and one of my coworkers told me to cut onion next to a running faucet.
Just cry 😂, and if it really bothers you and you need to do a lot of onions, wear divers/swimming goggles
when an onion is cut, it releases chemicals that sticks into nearest wet surfaces, so having a water nearby can help to absorb those before reaching ur eye
@@j-rocd9507 that's what always works for me.
I realize this is 2 years old and you might not check back, but... I just watched another guy to C&D; he put his cooked chicken in his kitchen aid and the beater shredded it really well! I like your dumplings recipe better. Off to the grocery store. thanks!
I've seen a number of C&D videos but not that one....got a link or channel name please? TIA
I havnt had this since my Nana made it about 16 years ago. I have everything maybe I'll make this tonight instead of rosemary garlic chicken.
I hope you did! So delicious
@@Pepperjohnson99 I did it was nostalgic I used green onions for my dumplings since that's what I had on hand.
Even as a child I loved one pot comfort meals. They stick to your ribs. “SICILY!!”
Thanks Farideh! Made this tonight and it’s amazing, especially while looking at the snow outside. I also got laid because of this meal, so a double thanks!
Lol!!!
hahahlol
Win, win!!!
Best comment ever!
2 years later and I'm still happy for you! Lol
Why did I think she was drinking the chicken stock lol
YOOOOO same i was like waitamin
Me too😂😂😂
I don't know what it is about her, but I can't get enough of her.
She’s funny, hot, and can cook...that’s what it is
I'm sure there will be many posts staring with, "My mom made this when I was a kid..." and now it's my turn! She died when I was 22 so I don't have a recipe but they look exactly like I remember though I am sure these will be 100% better tasting with the herbs. She might have used Bisquick? It's fall, rainy, and damp - looking forward to making your dumplings. Thank you for the recipe and sharing it with us.
My mom would use bisquick too but this take looks basically just as simple and tastier!
Bisquick rocks!
“A little dump action”...
Oh she a freak 😂
Just like your personality
*OBJ has entered the chat.*
@Every day Cookin I plead the Fifth.
Lighting a candle definitely works. You’ll never cry again ( while cooking ).
I made this and it was FIRE. Bought back so many memories. And boiling the chicken stock in the chicken really amped up the flavor!
Watching The Queen do her thing!
Simp
Simp
Whilst slightly crushing on her 👀
tone it down just slightly
we stan farideh
I'm making this right now and following along precisely. I can't wait to try it.... 😋
I'm glad she made this type of dumpling. This is how my Mom made chicken and dumplings. When I moved to Texas years ago and ordered chicken and dumplings, they served me chicken and thick noodles. I was not impressed...
I have tried this recipe several times and every time it gets better. Thank you
I cannot WAIT to make this tomorrow!!! I LOVE your channel....You CRACK me up!
That's how I like my dumplings nice and puffy...yummy🥰
Came out awesome! I added some frozen peas, so good!
This was fun. You add a breath of fresh air and had me laughing. Love your energy. Making chicken and dumplings for my first time right now❤
Dumplings and Daisy Dukes. A classic Southern tradition.
you put the chicken in after the dumplings... Madness!!! I love this stuff thou 😋
My grandmother made dumplings like this. Thank you.
You are so funny and REAL! I love the Tetris comparison...I was trying to box our Nativity Scene yesterday and I made the comment, "it's like Tetris"! I love your tutorials and I want to make this for our Super Staff meeting on Tuesday! Thank You and LVY
I loved helping my mom make this when growing up.
🤤🐷

Spices add so much. Besides salt pepper oregano, basil, tumerick. But fresh and chopped parsley was just superb !!!
Wow these are the most flavorful looking chicken and dumplings I've ever seen!! 🤤
Apparently, if you refrigerate the onions it stops them from making you cry. I refrigerate mine and they never made me cry until I bought one fresh and I was trying to figure out why suddenly I was in tears.
This is what’s done in commercial kitchens
omgggg I AM GOING TO TRY THIS! TYSM!
You can use the leaves of the celery. Pull them off before removing any rough tips of the stalk and add them to the dish in the latter half. The dark leafy green give a nice flavor and added nutrients.
I'm feeling kind of righteous right now 'cause that's the recipe I've been cooking since I was like 16.
The best thing about Corona is that I realized I dont cry cutting onions while wearing a mask
Aw, the onions... she's adorable.
This is the right way. I watched half a dozen videos where they roll out the dough on the countertop (no), use biscuit mix (no), use margarine (no). Only thing I'd add: dip your spoon in the soup & and use the wet spoon to scoop the dough.Then wet it again and scoop again.

Excellent recipe and video. And a special thanks for rocking the "jorts". May they never go out of style.
I love Farideh!
I made this tonight and it was amazing!! Thank you for the recipe.
"One hand here one hand here" + retro wave SUBSCRIBED AF
Love this recipe! Can hardly wait it to try! ❤
I would *drop* in here with a quick dumpling joke.. but I don't want you to get all *steamed!*
Lol
DAD NO
My grandma would this she make this southern style. She would make huge pot all kids would come and this was in 80 and 90s.
I used the recipe for the dumpling and damn good. That was the first time I made dumplings from scratch, I usually use biscuits but not any more. I didn't add the celery and carrots but I'm sure it would have tasted great that way also.
Im with you on the chicken n dumplings, no vegatables needed.
You know what I forgot how good and simple chicken and dumplings are. Thanks for doing this vid. The idea of using cake flour to make a lighter dumpling is great. I don't think I ever would have thought of that. Thanks again. Have a great day. 😃👍🍷 Sicily.
You know it’s good when u can smell it cooking through the RUclips video lol
When I watch Farideh I'm always so happy
My mouth is watering! You are a ROCK STAR 🌟 THANKS
I had some a couple days ago... Mom hooked it up! She has perfected the dumplings over the years 😋
insanely good. o man im in heaven. this is delicious. probably the most delicious thing ive ever had in my life.
Used to think the dumplings were yucky as a kid. Now I make it couple times a year. yummy!
Probably my all time favorite meal growing up for sure! We always made the dumplings with bisquick.
me too! my mom used bisquick as well but now I am a fine strapping adult and I make my damn dumplings from scratch! really, almost as easy as bisquick. also I put fresh parsley AND chives in my dumplings. world's best comfort food! this is my first visit to this channel, I love her subtle, but laugh out loud humor! subscribed.

Hometown Buffet’s chicken and dumplings were bomb. Never really had it anywhere else, now that I think about it.
This cook is an adorable sweetheart 😍
This makes me miss my mom. This was her favorite thing to make.
Farideh is my favorite reason I subscribed to Munchies.
"Are donuts dumplings" I stand with him on this one. Great episode 🤣
doughnuts are fried... bagels are boiled....dumplings with lox anyone?
Doughnuts are doughnuts. Look up the etymology of dumplings.
i finally convinced my husband to try chicken and dumplings, which he claims to have hated since childhood, because "they are doughy gut bombs". my statements of, "but honey, mine always come out like clouds!" couldn't sway him. finally, finally, i convinced him to at least try. this recipe was so yummy he ate two huge portions for dinner, and two more for lunch the next day. and, i have to agree, this recipe was absolutely dreamy! i added 2 bay leaves and some thyme to the stock, and the flavors melded so beautifully with the cream. thank you for this wonderful recipe!
Brown the chicken before you add the stock!!
Goooood idea, I may try this next
Thanks I have to try that recipe chicken and dumpling looks delicious enjoy
Ohhh farideh 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Ha, I love this. Keeping it real, making food well, all while making it look good.
Question of the century: Are tortellini dumplings?
Yes.
Yes
"No, tortellini are tortellini. RUclipsrs just muddy the waters" : Wittgenstein
Are Pop-Tarts just Ravioli?
Yummy dish
light a match when chopping onions, the sulfur kills the tears from onion chopping. keep a book of matches handy.
Thank you for your work!
Ty I know what’s for dinner tonight love this recipe 👍
"I feel like I'm gonna cry. Dammit." - sounds like me in the kitchen. 😂
Well, I didn't have the chives or parsley, but the mix turned out nice for the dumplings. I just added some garlic salt and pepper for flavoring. I'll be using your recipe again, next time will have the chives and parsley, or whatever it was...lol Thank You :) Gotta Eat Now :)
Yes, doughnuts are desert dumplings. Desert sandwiches exist. Even desert pizzas and I freakin love those.
I love making this dish. Very filling, I do roll out the dough and make thick strips allows more room in pot and a lot more dumplings
Mmmmmmm! Chicken n dumplings. Nuf said
OMG! This is awesome recipe! I did not grow on chicken and dumplings as well, and this is delicious! Thanks for sharing!
I really want to try this dish never had it before. looks so good and perfect for winter.
After that kid remark, I had to subscribe. This is a good cooking show. 🤪!
Thank you, I've been wanting to make this!!
"If I had kids I would make them shred the chicken".❤️❤️😂
With tht being said now I wanna make this recipe and put my 10 year old to work👍
Easy tip that levels up chicken n dumplings, add a can of cream of chicken soup! Makes them creamy, thick, and delicious. Just like the way my great grandma used to do it :P

I'm making this soon. Thank you Farideh.
Cooking the chicken in stock.... brilliant!! I'm trying this for sure
Loved this recipe, my daughter enjoyed the chicken and wants to eat "chicken and the sauce" tonight.
