Steps:

• To cook the chicken: Place the chicken, carrot, celery, onion, bay leaf, peppercorns and salt in a large pot. Add cold water until chicken is just covered and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to a bare simmer and cook for 45 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pot and let cool for 15 minutes. While the chicken is cooling, continue to boil the remaining water and vegetables in the pot. When the chicken has cooled enough to touch, strip away as much of the meat as you can. Return the chicken bones to the stockpot and continue to boil, on high heat, until the stock has reduced to approximately 3 cups. While the stock is reducing, cut up the chicken meat into pieces you'd like to see on the end of your fork. Strain stock through a sieve or colander. Press down on solids slightly to extract more stock. Discard solids (chicken bones and veggies). (the chicken and stock can be cooked up to a day ahead and kept refrigerated). Remove the layer of fat that forms on top of the stock after it has been refrigerated, and discard.
• Prepare the filling: In a large saucepan, melt butter on medium heat. Add the onions, fennel, carrots, celery, mushrooms and garlic, and cook until the onions are translucent, about 10 minutes. Add the flour and cook, stirring, one minute more. Add potatoes, peas, stock, coconut milk, oregano, thyme (or fines herbes) and nutmeg. Season to taste. Decrease the heat to low and simmer for 8 minutes, stirring often (you can make dumplings at this point). Stir in the chicken and 2 tblpss parsley.
• Prepare the dumplings: Mix flour, baking powder, salt, oregano and parsley in a medium bowl. Combine egg and milk and stir into dry ingredients. Mix gently with a fork until a soft dough is formed.
• Drop rounded teaspoonfuls of dumpling dough on the surface of the chicken stew (you should get about 15 dumplings); cover and simmer until dumplings are cooked through, about 15 minutes. Do not peek - the steam is what cooks your dumplings through.
• Spoon portions of chicken, sauce, vegetables, and dumplings into soup plates and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Cut lemon in half, and squeeze juice from 1/2 lemon on chicken. Season with salt to taste. Let sit while you heat oil in a small skillet over medium low heat.
• When oil is hot, put chicken in skillet. As you saute chicken, add juice from other 1/2 lemon, pepper to taste, and oregano. Saute for 5 to 10 minutes each side, or until juices run clear. Serve with parsley for garnish.

Steps:

• Prepare a campfire or wood-fired grill for cooking with indirect heat.
• Bring the stock to a simmer in a large stockpot. Keep warm on the fire.
• Brown the bacon in a Dutch oven until lightly crisp. Remove the bacon and one-third of the fat. Add the leeks and sauté for 5 minutes. Add the celery and carrots and sauté for 5 minutes. Add the potatoes, celery root, and warm stock and bring to a boil. Cook for 10 minutes, then add the smoked chicken, salt, tarragon, and thyme. Return to a simmer. Cover and cook at a low boil until the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes. Stir in the parsley, bacon, and cream. Add the white pepper and additional salt to taste.
• To make the dumplings, stir the flour and baking powder together in a bowl. Stir in the salt and herbs. Beat the milk, butter, and eggs together in a bowl. Stir into the dry ingredients until just combined. Stir in the cheese.
• Place the dumplings by spoonfuls on the top of the stew, cover, and cook for 10 to 12 minutes, until the dumplings are plump but firm. Take the cover off for the last 5 minutes if a smokier flavor is desired from the fire.
• Serve in bowls with one or two dumplings per serving.
