03 Method

Step 1

Combine chicken, onion, carrots and celery in a large pot. Season to taste.
Step 2

Add chicken broth. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer covered 45-60 minutes or until chicken is tender. While broth is simmering, prepare dumplings below.
Step 3

Remove chicken and vegetables from broth. Discard skin and bones and chop remaining chicken, set aside.
Step 4

Gently add dumplings to broth. Simmer 15-20 minutes or until tender.
Step 5

Stir chicken (and vegetables if desired) into broth and cook about 2-3 minutes or until heated through.
Step 6

Combine flour, baking powder, salt and shortening with a fork until shortening is mixed in.
Step 7

Add milk a little at a time and mix until combined (you may not need all of it, you want a soft but not sticky dough).
Step 8

Knead a few times on a floured surface until dough is smooth.
Step 9

Generously flour your surface and roll the dough out to 1/8″ thick. Cut dough into 1″ x 2″ strips. Flour generously to avoid sticking.
Step 10

Cook in broth as directed above.
Step 11

In a small bowl combine 4 tablespoons cornstarch with 4 tablespoons water.
Step 12

Add to boiling broth a little bit at a time stirring to reach desired consistency.
