  • step 1
    instructions Preheat oven to 400F.
  • step 2
    ingredients 1 Organic Whole Chicken
    instructions Wash and dry the chicken. Discard the back and cut the chicken into 10 pieces.
  • step 3
    ingredients Coarse Salt
    Freshly ground black pepper
    instructions Aggressively season the chicken pieces with coarse salt and pepper.
  • step 4
    ingredients 1 tablespoon Unsalted Butter
    2 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
    instructions Heat the butter and olive oil in the largest, widest oven-safe pot you have, at least 12 inches diameter, with a lid, over medium-high heat. Thoroughly brown the chicken pieces, in batches if necessary (7-8 minutes per side), and remove to a plate, leaving the fat in the pot.
  • step 5
    ingredients 1 Stalk Celery (roughly chopped)
    1 large Carrot (roughly chopped)
    1 small Leek (roughly chopped)
    1 slice Duck Bacon (finely diced)
    1 dried Bay Leaf
    1 teaspoon Fresh Thyme Leaves
    instructions Add the vegetables, duck bacon, bay leaf, and thyme to the pot and cook for 15 minutes over medium-low heat.
  • step 6
    ingredients 1/2 cup White Wine
    2 cups Vegetable Stock
    2 cups Water
    instructions Return the chicken to the pot. Add the white wine, bring to a boil, and cook for 2 minutes. Add the stock and water, bring to a boil, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Turn off the heat, cover the pot with a circle of parchment paper, and put the lid on top. 
  • step 7
    ingredients    
    instructions Cook the chicken in a 400 degrees F oven for 1 1/2 hours.
  • step 8
    ingredients 1 cup Unbleached All-Purpose Flour
    1 tablespoon Baking Powder
    1/2 cup plus 1 teaspoon Half-and-Half
    1/2 teaspoon Fine Salt
    Fresh Parsley (for garnish)
    instructions Meanwhile, combine the flour, baking powder, half-and-half, and fine salt together in a bowl. Take the pot out of the oven, discard the parchment and scoop large spoonfuls of the dumpling mixture on top of the chicken mixture-you should end up with about 10 dumplings. Cover the pot and put back in the oven for 10 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley and a bit more ground black pepper. Serve immediately, being sure to spoon plenty of the juices over each portion.
