MOMMA'S BEST CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS
There's a lot of love in those dumplings! This is comfort food at its best and so worth the time and effort. I love the ohhs, awws, and OMGs, smiles, and sighs of total satisfaction that come with this bowl of heaven.

Steps:
- Melt butter in a stock pot over medium-high heat. Add celery, carrot, onion, garlic, bay leaves, thyme, salt, pepper, and poultry seasoning; cook and stir until flavors combine, about 5 minutes. Push vegetable mixture to the sides and add chicken; cook until browned, 3 to 5 minutes per side.
- Pour enough water over the chicken to cover by 3 inches; bring to a boil. Stir, scraping the browned bits off of the bottom of the pot. Reduce heat; simmer until chicken is tender, about 1 hour. Transfer chicken and carrots to a serving plate with a large slotted spoon; let cool.
- Ladle 1/4 cup cooking liquid into a bowl; cool slightly, about 5 minutes. Mix in 2 tablespoons flour. Stir back into the pot.
- Place 2 cups flour in a large bowl; cut in shortening with 2 knives until mixture forms pea-sized bits. Mix in chilled chicken broth until dough is combined.
- Turn dough out onto a floured work surface. Knead 5 to 6 times; pat down to 1-inch thickness. Sprinkle lightly with flour; roll out to about 1/8-inch thickness. Cut dough into squares with a sharp knife.
- Drop squares, in batches, into simmering cooking liquid, moving squares to the side with each addition. Partially cover pot; simmer until dumplings are firm, about 12 minutes. Separate any dumplings that stick together. Remove from heat; keep covered.
- Bone chicken; cut into bite-sized pieces and return to the pot. Chop carrot; return to the pot. Cool chicken and dumplings, about 30 minutes, before serving.

MOM'S CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS (BOTT BOI)
When I was a child my Mother made "Chicken and Dumplings" that were out of this world. They approached Paradise. After I was grown and took up cooking I tried in vain to find "her" recipe. I never developed a taste for drop dumplings.A few months ago I was watching an regional home cooking show on the TV, suddenly there was "Mom's Chicken and Dumplings" on a program about Pennsylvania Dutch cooking. How Mom came by it originally is one of life's mysteries. This is so good, chickens volunteer for the privilege of being part of it.

MOM'S CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS (SLOW COOKER VERSION)
This is a favorite recipe originally made by my mother with chicken on-the-bone and homemade broth cooked over a stove. I have found I don't have the time to start from scratch and that this version tastes just as good with less fuss! You can substitute freshly cooked chicken, if desired. You can line the slow cooker with a slow cooker liner for easy clean-up.

MOM'S SOUTHERN STYLE CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS
This is a truly delicious recipe, but it was very difficult to get the exact amounts of ingredients. It's one of those handed down recipes where mom and grandma just said, "add a little of this and that." Please note that it may not take both cartons of broth. I usually add about 1 1/2 cartons and add the rest if I need to. The...

Steps:
- 1. Cook chicken breasts. Cool and cut into bite-sized pieces, set aside while making the dumplings.
- 2. DUMPLINGS: In a large bowl, mix together flours and shortening until mixture resembles a coarse meal. Add milk a little at a time and mix until it forms a soft dough. On a floured surface, roll or pat out dough to about 1/4" thickness. Cut into small squares using a pizza wheel. Squares do not have to be uniform. NOTE: You may also drop dumplings by heaping teaspoons into broth, but we prefer them rolled out and cut.
- 3. BROTH: In a large Dutch oven, combine broth, soups, and hot sauce and bring to a boil. Add chicken and then add dumplings one at a time and stir very lightly, sprinkle with black pepper. Return to boil and reduce heat. Cover and simmer for about 15 to 20 minutes or until dumplings are cooked and sauce has thickened. If sauce is too thin, mix a couple of tablespoons flour and water and mix into a pourable paste. Add to broth to thicken.
- 4. SPECIAL NOTE: It is very important to add the dumplings one at a time. Do not add them all at once or you will have one big clump.
BUSY MOMS CHICKEN AND DUMPLING CASSEROLE
This sounds like it a lot of work, but it really is so easy and taste so mouth watering good! My family loves this better than the old fashion chicken and dumplings. The secret is not to stir the ingredients as you layer them.

MOM'S CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS (CHICKEN PAPRIKA)
This was a staple at our house when I was growing up. My mom made this about two times a month and often had to double the dumplings! Since my mom is not good at exact measurements, I tried my best to recreate this great one pot meal from her verbal instructions. She calls this Chicken Paprika, but I am told it would have to have sour cream in it, and it doesn't, which is fine with me :) ****NOTE 1/15/08: I've adjusted the quantities of salt and paprika because depending on what kind of chicken you use, different amounts of water will be used, needing different amounts of spicing. You may also increase the pepper and garlic, if desired, but be careful as garlic should not be a dominant flavor in this dish.

Steps:
- In a stock pot or dutch oven saute onions in butter until tender.
- Add water until pot is about 1/3 full.
- Add chicken thighs, garlic powder, salt, pepper and paprika.
- Make sure water is covering the chicken, if not add more until it just covers.
- Bring to a boil and then simmer for 90 minutes, covered, stirring occasionally.
- In the meantime, make the dumplings: Mix the flour, salt, pepper and paprika in a medium bowl until combined.
- Make a well in the center and drop in the egg and about 1/2 cup water.
- Stir and add more water by the tablespoon until you have a sticky dough that just leaves the side of the bowl.
- In a different large pot from chicken, boil water.
- Drop dumpling mixture by the teaspoon into the boiling water.
- (I use a regular teaspoon from my flatware, not a measuring spoon.) If dumpling mix is too sticky to drop from spoon, then dip the spoon into the boiling water, the dumpling should slide right off.
- When dumplings start floating on top, remove them with a slotted spoon or drain them.
- You may have to reduce the heat to see when they are floating.
- About 30 minutes before chicken should be done, add the dumplings to the pot with the chicken.
- After 30 minutes, you should have a delicious dish: the chicken should be tender enough that it is falling off of the bone and the dumplings should have made a thicker sauce out of the liquid the chicken was cooking inches.
MOM'S CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS
This is one of those recipes of my mom's that I simply can't master as well as she has. Barbara Mooers requested that I post it, so I did. My mom being a "dump cook" just throws it together and it tastes wonderful. I follow this recipe to the letter and it never tastes as good as hers though. Hope you have some luck with it.

Steps:
- Place chicken in large pot, cover completely with water.
- Boil chicken until cooked through.
- Remove chicken and let cool.
- When chicken is cool begin pulling meat from the bird.
- Meanwhile, when broth is still warm add chicken soup base/boullion.
- Season to your tastes, I use approx.
- 2 tablespoon.
- Some people may want more.
- You may also add salt and pepper if you choose.
- The broth will be fairly salty, so I would taste to be sure.
- Mix flour and broth to create dough.
- You will mix 1/2 cup of flour for every cup of dough.
- I would begin by starting with 1/2 cup of flour to 1 cup of dough, as that makes quite a bit.
- Repeat if you want to double the recipe.
- Stir, and then work with hands to form dough.
- This dough will be sticky.
- Place on well floured surface, cover outside of doughball with flour, so rolling pin won't stick.
- Turn chicken broth up to about medium heat, you want it really hot, but not to the point of boiling.
- Roll dough out to approximately the width of 1/8 inch.
- Cut into long strips, and then cut long strips into sections approximately 2 inches long.
- When broth is ready begin dropping dough strips into pot.
- Do not stir, just push down to bottom of pot.
- When dumplings are done, add chicken meat.
