My son, Jonathan, who is eleven years old still loves to help his Momma - especially in the kitchen! Thank you Lord!! It's been a long time since I made my Chicken & Dumplings I just had to have some!
Jonathan did a great job in the kitchen today! And, he learned something. Now, that's what I call accomplishment! He's going to make some woman very happy one day! ;)
Here's my recipe, in case you want to try it! It's super easy and a lot of fun with the kids!
Chicken & Dumplings Ingredients:
1 whole chicken, boiled and deboned
Broth from cooking chicken plus 1 carton of chicken broth
1 can of cream of chicken soup
2 cups of flour, self rising works best
Boil whole chicken in large pot until done. Remove from broth and pull apart, breaking into bite size pieces. Set aside.
Strain broth and put back into your pot.
Add about a cup to a cup and a half of broth to flour; mix well. If it's still "sticky" add more flour.
Roll out on floured board about 1/4 inch thin. Cut dough into squares of about an inch. Return broth to a rolling boil and drop dumplings into the broth one at a time. Stir the dumplings occasionally to keep them from sticking together and to the bottom of the pot.
Add can of cream of chicken soup and stir. Then, add the chicken and boil or simmer, stirring frequently until dumplings are to your liking. I like to cook them for about 30 minutes.
See how easy this recipe is? And, I have to say it is so good! Let me know if you try it out and how you like it!! HAPPY COOKING!
Love this kid!!! :)
