Ingredients for Chicken n’ Dumplins

Method

Directions for Chicken n’ Dumplins

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    In a large pot, bring the water to a boil. Add the whole chicken, salt, and black pepper. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook for about 1 hour or until the chicken is fully cooked.

  2. 2

    Make the Broth

    Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the pot and set aside to cool. Strain the broth, discarding the solids. Return the broth to the pot and add diced carrots, celery, and chopped onion. Simmer for 15 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Dumplings

    In a mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, milk, and melted butter. Stir until just combined; do not overmix.

  4. 4

    Add Dumplings to Broth

    Drop spoonfuls of the dumpling mixture into the simmering broth. Cover the pot and let the dumplings cook for about 15 minutes without lifting the lid.

  5. 5

    Shred the Chicken

    While the dumplings are cooking, shred the cooled chicken into bite-sized pieces. Add the shredded chicken back into the pot along with chopped parsley.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Stir gently to combine and serve hot. Enjoy your Chicken n’ Dumplins!
