Steps:

• In a large, heavy-bottomed pot or dutch oven melt 6 tbsp butter over medium high heat.
• Add the onion and carrots and cook for 5 minutes. Add garlic and peas and cook for 1 minute more.
• Add 3 tbsp of flour to the pot and stir to combine. Add evaporated milk and chicken stock. Stir to combine.
• Bring the pot to a boil and add the chicken and thyme. Season with salt and pepper. Add 1 tbsp lemon juice. Let the soup simmer for about 10 minutes, uncovered, while you make the dumplings.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt and thyme. Pour the milk and butter into the center of your bowl. Stir in the milk and butter until a soft dough forms.
• Once your dough is formed, use a large cookie scoop or spoon to create balls of dough. Roll the dough gently into 9 - 10 balls.
• Place the balls of dough onto the surface of the pot, taking care to place them around the pot and not overlapping if possible.
• Press the dough balls down into the pot so that they are covered by the liquid.
• Add the lid to your pot and reduce the heat to a simmer. Simmer for 15 minutes, until the dough is cooked through. Test a dough ball to see if it's cooked through before removing the pot from the heat. If it's not cooked through, keep simmering the pot for 3 - 4 more minutes.

Steps:

• For the chicken: Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot with a lid over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the carrots, celery, onion, 1/2 teaspoon salt and about 10 grinds black pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables just begin to soften but don't take on any color, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Stir in the garlic and thyme and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the wine and simmer until completely evaporated, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the butter until completely melted. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir until it is completely incorporated and a sandy paste forms. Pour in the milk and stir until the flour has been smoothly incorporated into the liquid.
• Add the chicken and the chicken stock to the pot and stir to combine. Bring the mixture to a boil then lower the heat to medium-low and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes. Stir in the parsley and peas and remove from the heat.
• For the dumplings: Whisk together the flour, baking powder, garlic salt, 1/2 teaspoon salt and about 10 grinds black pepper in a medium bowl. Stir in the melted butter until just combined, then add the milk and stir until a ball of dough forms.
• Use a small ice cream scoop or measuring cup to scoop 10 balls of dough into the pot (about 2 tablespoons each). Cover the pot and simmer over medium-low until the dumplings have puffed up and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 10 to 15 minutes. Divide among bowls and sprinkle with more parsley.

BUFFALO CHICKEN WING SLIDERS

Steps:

• Mix ground chicken, bread crumbs, egg, and wing sauce together in a large bowl. Add enough water to the chicken mixture so it is a little sticky; shape into patties about 3 inches in diameter.

BUFFALO CHICKEN DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a skillet over medium heat until hot. Add the onions and reduce the heat to medium. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a large pinch of pepper. Cook, stirring, until the onions are soft and beginning to brown, about 3 minutes. Add the celery and cook, stirring occasionally, until the celery is just beginning to soften, about 2 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl to cool to room temperature, about 5 minutes.
• Lightly beat one of the eggs in a small bowl and add it to the bowl with the onion-celery mixture. Add the chicken, hot sauce, scallions and 3/4 teaspoon salt and stir until evenly combined.
• Lightly beat the remaining egg with 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl. Working with 1 dumpling wrapper at a time on a clean surface (cover the remaining wrappers with a damp paper towel so they don't dry out), add 1 rounded teaspoon of the filling to the center of the wrapper. Brush the edge of the wrapper with the egg wash. Fold the dumpling into a half-moon shape and press the edges to seal. (Alternatively, you can seal the edge tightly by forming pleats.) Transfer the dumpling to a baking sheet and cover with a damp paper towel to keep from drying out while you finish assembling the remaining dumplings.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in 3 batches and being careful not to crowd the skillet, add a third of the dumplings in a single layer. Sear each side until crisp and brown, about 30 seconds per side. Reduce the heat to low, add 2 tablespoons water to the skillet and cover with a lid to steam. Cook until the dumplings are soft and cooked through and the water is completely evaporated, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter and repeat with the remaining dumplings, adding additional oil and water to the skillet for each batch.
• Serve with celery and carrot sticks and blue cheese dressing for dipping.
