Tipsy Gourmet Chicken and Dumplings only GF/DF

Chicken and Dumplings GF, DF, CF,

Tipsy, this is my style of "comfort food"!!!!

Lets try it home cooking style and provide a meal for people who are Gluten Free.

Ingredients: Chicken
1 Whole Chicken
3 Stalks of Celery, trimmed and cut into 1/2" pieces
3 Carrots, peeled and cut into 1/2" pieces
2/2 Onions-large, roughly chopped
2 Bay Leaves
GF roux
1 teaspoon dried thyme
2 Tbsp dry sherry
1/4 cup fresh parsley
Salt
pepper

Ingredients: Dumplings

2 cups Rice Flour
1/4 cup Sorghum (sweet rice) flour
1 1/2 teaspoons Xanthan gum
1 teaspoon salt
5 eggs
3/4 cups water
1 teaspoon parsley

Place the rinsed chicken into a large pot of cold water. Place it over high heat. When it comes to a boil, reduce the flame to create a simmer. Skim the impurities that rise to the surface. After 1 1/2 hours remove the chicken and let cool slightly before removing all the meat from the bones.

In the pot of stock, put the celery, onion, and carrots simmer for 15 minutes, remove the vegetables.

Prepare the dumplings by mixing the dry ingredients. Then adding the beaten eggs, and water.
Mix with a rubber spatula. Place dough on a plate and spoon in bite sized dumplings into the stock. This process should be done in 2-3 batches. Remove each batch as the dumplings are cooked and have risen to the top. Remove all dumplings.

Add the GF roux to the stock to reach the desired thickness, creating a Veloute.

Reintroduce the chicken, dumplings, and veggies to the Veloute.
Add the thyme and sherry.
Season with the salt and pepper.
Enjoy a meal with the comfort of knowing it is OK to eat.
At my table the Gluten eaters didn't know the difference. (except mom was eating the same thing as they were)
