Steps:
- For the chicken: Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot with a lid over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the carrots, celery, onion, 1/2 teaspoon salt and about 10 grinds black pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables just begin to soften but don't take on any color, 4 to 5 minutes.
- Stir in the garlic and thyme and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the wine and simmer until completely evaporated, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the butter until completely melted. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir until it is completely incorporated and a sandy paste forms. Pour in the milk and stir until the flour has been smoothly incorporated into the liquid.
- Add the chicken and the chicken stock to the pot and stir to combine. Bring the mixture to a boil then lower the heat to medium-low and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes. Stir in the parsley and peas and remove from the heat.
- For the dumplings: Whisk together the flour, baking powder, garlic salt, 1/2 teaspoon salt and about 10 grinds black pepper in a medium bowl. Stir in the melted butter until just combined, then add the milk and stir until a ball of dough forms.
- Use a small ice cream scoop or measuring cup to scoop 10 balls of dough into the pot (about 2 tablespoons each). Cover the pot and simmer over medium-low until the dumplings have puffed up and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 10 to 15 minutes. Divide among bowls and sprinkle with more parsley.

Steps:
- Season the chicken thighs all over with 2 teaspoons of salt, 1 teaspoon of pepper, and the poultry seasoning.
- In a large Dutch oven, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Place seasoned chicken, skin-side down, in the hot oil and begin to render the chicken fat, about 5 minutes. Once the skin in crispy, flip the chicken and continue cooking for 3 minutes more. Remove the chicken from pot and set aside. Pour the chicken fat into a small bowl and reserve.

- Add 1 tablespoon of the reserved chicken fat to the pot over medium heat, along with the sliced carrots, sliced celery, garlic, and 2 tablespoons of flour. Stir to combine.
- Slowly add the reserved chicken stock, 2 teaspoons of salt, 1 teaspoon of pepper, and the garlic powder. Add the shredded chicken back to the pot and bring to a simmer over low heat and continue cooking for 20 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.
- Meanwhile, make the dumplings: In a medium bowl, combine the remaining cups of flour, the baking powder, remaining teaspoon of salt, remaining ½ teaspoon of pepper, and the remaining 3 tablespoons of reserved chicken fat. Mix with a fork to combine. Add the buttermilk and mix to incorporate, then knead for 2 minutes, until the dough comes together.
