Chicken and Dumplings with Cucumber and Onion Salad
“My mom is from the Carolinas, and one of her staple meals is chicken and dumplings with fried cornbread. It is a family favorite. When we were kids, my brother, sister, and I would request it for each of our birthday dinners. Sometimes I’ll make it in a pinch by putting chicken thighs in the pressure cooker instead of doing the long process with a whole chicken—and that’s what this quick recipe calls for. (If I’m being really lazy, I’ll pick up a rotisserie chicken from the grocery, but don’t ever tell my mom that—I might be disowned!)” — Khela
