Preparation

Heat the oil in a saucepan over high heat. Sauté both sides of the chicken thighs (about 3 min each side). Add the vegetables and seasonings, toss and add the water. Bring to a boil, cover the saucepan and let simmer.

In the meantime, make the dumplings. Combine all of the ingredients to make a lumpy dough. Once the stew has cooked for 30 min, drop the dough into the stew one tablespoon at a time. Cover and let simmer for 10 min or until a toothpick inserted into the dumplings comes out clean.
