Steps:
- This recipe calls for poached chicken breasts, but I like to put 3 cups of water on the stove to simmer, and add my chicken to cook while I mix and chop everything else. Add salt, pepper, and anything else you like if you would like to use this simmering liquid as your chicken stock later. Otherwise, quickly poach the chicken and use the canned stock.
- While the chicken is cooking (and don't overdo it -- it's better to leave it slightly undercooked rather than overcooked at this stage). Prepare all of your veggies.chopping, quartering, etc.
- By the time the chopping is done, the chicken should be ready to come out of the pot (15 minutes or so -- I am a slow chopper though). Take it out and let it cool while proceed to the next step.
- Mix 1/4 cup flour with 1/2 cup chicken stock. Add the liquid slowly to avoid lumps.
- Heat 2-1/2 cups chicken stock, if it isn't hot already. Add all your chopped veggies and cover. Keep on medium heat.
- While the veggies are cooking a bit, start pulling your chicken breasts (or thighs) apart. It should be in chunky shreds when you are done with it. Discard any bones.
- Stir in the flour/stock mixture to the pot of broth and veggies. It will start to thicken.
- In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup flour with baking powder, parsley, poultry seasoning, and milk. Stir just enough to moisten.(Keep in mind, you can do this step at any point in the recipe. I do what ever it takes to save time).
- Add the chicken shreds to the stock.
- Use a wet teaspoon and scoop up little bits of the dough you made in step 9. Drop them gently into the simmering broth. Reduce heat, cover tightly, and let simmer for an additional 15 minutes. The little dough balls will puff up significantly during cooking.
- **Right before I serve this, I like to sprinkle generously with black pepper, but the original recipe doesn't call for this.

- Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Heat a 6-quart Dutch oven over medium heat; add thighs. Cook, turning once, until nicely browned on both sides and cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Repeat with breasts; cut breasts crosswise into thirds.
- Add butter to pot; when melted, add onion, cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 6 minutes. Stir in broth and thyme; bring to a boil. Combine cornstarch and 2 tablespoons flour in a bowl. Gradually whisk in milk, and whisk milk mixture into broth. Boil, whisking, until thickened, about 5 minutes. Return chicken to Dutch oven; remove from heat while you prepare the vegetables.

- Prepare dumpling dough: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cornmeal, baking powder, and salt. Add butter; cut into dry mixture with fingers until mealy. Pour in milk; stir with a fork until dough comes together. Return chicken mixture to a simmer, and drop dough by tablespoons on surface of stew. Cover; cook for 15 minutes without lifting lid.

ULTRA LOW FAT OLD FASHIONED CHICKEN & DUMPLINGS
Another treasure from "Fat Free and Ultra Low Fat recipes from Doris' Kitchen" by Doris Cross in Stillwater, OK. This is the only way I will make chicken soup now. Great for any time of year. Really hits the spot when I have a cold. I like to add jar of mushrooms, even though recipe does not call for it. ****Edited to clarify that "old fashioned" dumplings is what the author named the recipe & the dumplings are not like our grandmas' dumplin's; these are a low fat alternative. (I sometimes use the frozen dumplings or noodles from the store, which changes the fat content.)
