Ingredients:

Serving

2 slices hickory-smoked bacon
1 cup chopped onion
1 tbsp minced garlic
3 cups unsalted chicken stock (such as swanson)
1 1/2 cups water
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1 (16-oz) bag frozen black-eyed peas (about 2 3/4 cups)
3.4 oz all-purpose flour (about 3/4 cup)
1/3 cup finely chopped green onions
1/4 cup yellow cornmeal
1/4 tsp baking soda
2 tbsp chilled butter , cut into pieces
1/2 cup buttermilk
hot sauce (optional)

Directions:

Cook bacon in a Dutch oven over medium heat until crisp. Remove bacon from pan; finely chop. Remove 1 tablespoon drippings from pan; set aside. Increase heat to medium-high. Add 1 cup onion to remaining drippings in pan; sauté 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add garlic; sauté 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add stock, 1 1/2 cups water, salt, pepper, and peas to pan; bring to a boil. Partially cover, reduce heat, and simmer 35 minutes or until peas are tender, stirring occasionally.
Weigh or lightly spoon flour into a dry measuring cup; level with a knife. Combine flour, green onions, cornmeal, and baking soda, stirring with a whisk. Cut butter into flour mixture with a pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add bacon, reserved 1 tablespoon drippings, and buttermilk; stir until a moist dough forms.
With moist hands, gently divide mixture into 12 equal portions. Drop dumplings, 1 at a time, into pan; cover and cook 8 minutes or until dumplings are done, stirring occasionally. Serve with hot sauce, if desired.
