I’m doing that thing I hate. I’m going to tell y’all about a recipe that I used and how delicious it is and then just post a link to it. I know, I know, it’s annoying. Those of you who’ve I talked with about blogging know it’s my pet peeve; BUT, I’m getting ready to go to breakfast and I have a busy day ahead and I just really need y’all to make this damn recipe!
So, last night, after a fun weekend with friends that included I don’t know how many bottles of wine and an embarrassing number of shots, Eric, his friend Devan, and myself were all curled up into balls on each piece of furniture in our living room, wrapped in blankets, freezing and nursing hangovers. Of course that means I had to make chicken and dumplings. I did a quick Internet search and found a recipe from The Pioneer Woman. Now, while the woman annoys the ever-living crap out of me on her TV show, I am a fan of her blog and her recipes.
Her recipe for chicken and dumplings was pretty simple and super yummy.
I used boneless, skinless chicken tenders for mine. I did dredge them, as she suggested, and pan fried them before adding the veggies and water. I skipped over the apple cider she recommended, because we didn’t have any, but I’ll definitely add it next time I make this. I also used bouillon cubes instead of boxed or canned broth, because they take up less space in the cabinet and are easier to have on hand.
My favorite part are the dumplings! They have a mixture of flour and cornmeal, which, as the Pioneer Woman points out, helps them hold their shape and not turn into balls of gummy gunk. They were beyond delicious!
Check out the recipe and let me know what your favorite hangover foods are!
Until next time, stay hydrated and make wise choices,
Tyler
