Steps:
- In a large pot place chicken pieces and add the chicken stock, onion, celery and 2 teaspoons of the salt. Put heat on medium low and simmer, partially covered, 15 to 20 minutes or until chicken is tender.
- To Prepare Dumplings: In a large mixing bowl beat together the egg and milk. Add 1 cup flour, remaining salt and baking powder and mix all together. Cut the butter into the flour mixture until the mixture is crumbly. Add 1 tablespoon of the parsley and mix. In 6 large spoonfuls, drop dumpling mixture onto the top of the simmering chicken. Cover the pot and let all simmer for 10 minutes more.
- To Make Gravy: Remove chicken and dumplings to a large serving bowl. Cover and set aside, keeping warm. Strain the stock left in the pot, pressing out any 'veggie liquid'. Return stock to pot. Combine water with remaining flour, then stir into the strained stock. Bring all to a boil, stirring constantly, to thicken. Return chicken and dumplings to pot, combing all gently. Serve with remaining parsley.

Steps:
- Heat milk and butter for dumplings in a small saucepan over medium heat until butter melts, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Combine flour, baking powder, parsley, and salt in a bowl. Stir in club soda and milk mixture until dough forms a ball, making sure not to overmix. Cover dumpling dough and let stand for 30 minutes.
- Combine chicken stock and cream of chicken soup in a large saucepan or Dutch oven. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Add chicken, potatoes, onion, celery, carrot, bell pepper, peas, lemon, and thyme. Poach until chicken is no longer pink in the centers and vegetables are tender, about 12 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate to cool; transfer vegetables to a bowl, leaving stock in the pan. Discard thyme and lemon.
- Boil remaining stock over medium-high heat until reduced by 1/3, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Meanwhile, pour cream into a small saucepan and heat over medium-high heat. Cook until reduced by about 1/2, 7 to 10 minutes. Whisk into reduced stock. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
- Chop cooled chicken into bite-sized pieces.
- Melt butter in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms, season with salt and pepper, and saute for 2 to 3 minutes. Stir into stock mixture and add chicken and cooked vegetables.
- Bring soup to a simmer over medium heat, adding more stock if necessary. Drop dumpling dough by teaspoons into the mixture. Cover and let simmer for 7 to 8 minutes. Serve hot garnished with parsley and green onion.

CRACKER BARREL HOMEMADE CHICKEN & DUMPLINGS RECIPE - (4/5)

Steps:
- In a bowl combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut the butter into the dry ingredients with a fork or pastry blender. Stir in the milk, mixing with a fork until the dough forms a ball. Heavily flour a work surface. You'll need a rolling pin and something to cut the dumplings with. I like to use a pizza cutter. I also like to use a small spatula to lift the dumplings off the cutting surface. Roll the dough out thin with a heavily floured rolling pin. Dip your cutter in flour and cut the dumplings in squares about 2x2-inches each. It's okay for them not to be exact. Just eye ball it. Some will be bigger, some smaller, and some might be shaped funny. Use the floured spatula to put them on a heavily floured plate. Just keep flouring between the layers of dumplings. To cook them, bring the broth to a boil. Drop the dumplings in one at a time, stirring while you add them. The extra flour on them will help thicken the broth. Cook them for about 15 to 20 minutes or until they don't taste doughy. Add the cooked chicken to the pot and serve.
CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS LIKE CRACKER BARREL'S
This tastes just like Cracker Barrel's, if you have ever tried it. From book "Old Fashioned Country Cooking" found at Cracker Barrel.

Steps:
- Place chicken in a Dutch oven. Add water and 2 teaspoons salt. Bring to a boil.
- Cover, reduce the heat, and simmer for 1 hour or until tender (should almost fall off bone).
- Remove the chicken from the broth and cool. Bone the chicken and cut meat into bite-sized pieces.
- Bring the broth to a boil and add pepper.
- Combine the flour, baking soda, and salt. Cut in the shortening. Add the buttermilk, stirring with a fork until moistened.
- Knead the dough 4 to 5 times (never done), and pat to 1/2-inch pieces and drop into boiling broth (I do not pat it out, just pinch off pieces). Reduce the heat to medium-low, and cook for about 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Stir in the chicken and serve. I make it in the pressure cooker, much quicker and easier.
- I pressure it for only 30 minutes.
- It can also be done in the crockpot with 3-4 cups water but someone has that book so at this time I cannot give cooking times.
- Good Luck! Hope you enjoy.
CHICKEN 'N' DUMPLINGS -- CRACKER BARREL STYLE
I haven't tried this yet, but these are supposed to be the same as the Cracker Barrel meal which I LOVE. It's just chicken and dumplings and creamy white gravy at the end. I got this off of the Post-Gazette website. They noted that they found that they needed about 3/4 cup more flour than the recipe called for. They added 1/4 cup of flour at a time to get the dough to rolling consistency and added 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder.

Steps:
- Bring water to a boil in a large pot.
- Add the chicken, 1 teaspoon of salt, onion, celery, garlic, bay leaf and parsley to the pot.
- Reduce the heat to simmer and cook the chicken, uncovered, for 2 hours.
- The liquid will reduce by about one third.
- When the chicken has cooked, remove it from the pot and set it aside.
- Strain the stock to remove all the vegetables and floating scum.
- You want only the stock and the chicken, so toss everything else out.
- Pour 1 1/2 quarts (6 cups) of the stock back into the pot (keep the leftover stock, if any, for another recipe - it can be frozen).
- Add coarsely ground pepper, the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and the tablespoon of lemon juice, then reheat the stock over medium heat while preparing the Dumplings.
- For the Dumplings, combine the flour, baking powder, 1 1/4 teaspoons salt and milk in a medium bowl.
- Stir well until smooth, then let the dough rest for 5 to 20 minutes.
- Roll the dough out onto a floured surface to about a 1/2-inch thickness.
- Cut the dough into 1/2-inch squares and drop each square into the simmering stock.
- Use all of the dough.
- The Dumplings will first swell and then slowly shrink as they partially dissolve to thicken the stock into a white gravy.
- Simmer for 20 to 30 minutes until thick. Stir often.
- While the stock is thickening, the chicken will have become cool enough to handle.
- Tear all the meat from the bones and remove the skin.
- Cut the chicken neatly into bite-size pieces and drop them into the pot.
- Discard the skin and bones.
- Continue to simmer the chicken and dumplings for another 5 to 10 minutes, but don't stir too vigorously or the chicken will shred and fall apart.
- You want big chunks of chicken in the end.
- When the gravy has reached the desired consistency, ladle four portions onto plates and serve hot.
- Serve with your choice of steamed vegetables, if desired.
CRACKER BARREL CHICKEN & DUMPLINGS
This takes a long time, but it is worth the work. If you decide to use canned broth, cut the salt in the dumplings. (I'm guesstimating on the prep/cook time.)
