Here is a recipe that is a favorite of my family in the winter. I hope I wrote it so it makes sense.
Chicken and Dumpling
2 cups flour
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon salt1
5 Tablespoons real butter
1/2 cups milk
2 quarts chicken broth
1 chicken (about 3 lbs)
1 cup diced bell pepper
1/2 cup diced onion
1/2 cup diced celery
Mix first 5 ingredients. Roll out to about 1/8 inch thick and cut into 1x3 inch strips. Dust with flour. Cover with waxed paper and let sit for about 2 hours.
Meanwhile, boil chicken in chicken broth or salted water, about 15 mins. with bell pepper, onion and celery. Remove chicken and let cool until it can be removed from the bone. Cut meat into bite sized pieces.
When dumplings are dry, uncover, flip over and dust with flour. Bring broth to a boil. Drop dumplings into boiling chicken broth and cook about 10 minutes. Flour from dumplings should thicken broth. Put the chicken back in the pot and salt and pepper to taste and serve with a loaf of garlic & cheese bread.
