This comforting, hearty hug-in-a-bowl stew combines the classic flavours of chicken, lemon and thyme with fluffy dumplings. Creamy butter beans add extra fibre and using egg yolks instead of suet makes the dumplings super light.

Hints & Tips

Below we added some of our communities most common hints and tips. We hope you find them useful.

If you cook it in the slow cooker, it will be ready when you get home after a long day.

Swap this

Use diced chicken thighs instead of diced chicken breast.

Beautiful and so easy!

Make a massive batch so that you have some ready next time the temperature drops outside and you crave something warm and comforting! The dumplings are so easy and surprisingly good considering no suet

Cooked this in my instant pot which was super easy and quick

I popped the dumplings in after pressure cooking for 20 minutes and they were perfect 😍

Zesting some lemon in with the juice add some extra zing to the dish.

Such an easy tasty recipe

Absolutely love this herby chicken stew! So good on a cold winter evening! We love doing these in a batch cook at the weekend to have for dinners throughout the week! I’d never made dumplings before either and these are so easy and delicious!
