chicken chili with corn bread dumplings!



SO good news! business for me has been BOOMING!! i mean so much so i haven't had time to write one single post in a few weeks! (needless to say there has been a lot of take out around here )  i'm telling you though, there is no greater feeling than being your own boss, people loving what you do and getting paid for it!

back at the home front (yesterday was crazy!) i came down with some sort of stomach virus ! it was horrible (i will spare you the details) thankfully no one else got it and today i'm feeling 100%. with that being said today  was a great day! i went grocery shopping, cleaned the house,car and even did a little gardening (my basil is growing beautify!) and i'm finally getting a handle on things. i've been working so hard that even though i've been home i was starting to feel homesick. so i thought what better way to get back into the swing of things than to make one of my favorite comfort foods. white chicken chili with corn bread dumplings.  sooo good !



ingredients:
4 cups chicken stock
1 cup water
1/2 onion diced
2 garlic cloves
1 can of corn
1 can of white beans
1lb of boneless skinless chicken thighs
1 can cream of chicken
1 small can of chopped green chiles
1 packet of taco seasoning (i used homemade, i will attach the recipe)
a splash of cream

corn bread dumplings:
1 box of jiffy corn muffin mix
1 egg
1/4 cup scour cream
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup green onions
1/4 cup of cheese
** you will not use all of this dough only about half

in a duch oven bring chicken stock and water to a boil. add onions, garlic (minced) and chicken cover and cook for about 20-25 minutes. next add the rest of ingredients and cook for another 10-15 minutes (until chicken is done) last spoon in the dumpling mixture 1 tsp per dumpling into the pot (cover and let simmer for 10-15 minutes)
that's it! comfort in a bowl :)
