Steps:
- Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Stir in the onion, and cook until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Place the chicken breasts into the pot, skin-side-down. Pour in the chicken broth, and enough water to just cover the breasts. Bring to a simmer over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the chicken begins to fall off the bone, about 1 hour. Once cooked, remove the chicken breasts from the pot. Remove and discard the skin and bone; allow the meat to cool, then tear apart into bite sized chunks.
- While the chicken breast are simmering, prepare the dumpling dough by whisking the flour, baking powder, and 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt together in a mixing bowl. Work the vegetable shortening in with your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse cornmeal. Make a well in the middle and pour in the milk. Stir together until a stiff dough forms. Turn out onto a floured surface, and knead until smooth. Form the dough into 12 pieces, and set aside.
- After you've shredded the chicken, stir the cream of chicken soup, 2 cups water, salt, pepper, and shredded chicken back into the pot. Return to a simmer over medium-high heat. Drop the dumplings into the simmering broth one at a time to keep them from sticking together. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until the dumplings have puffed and are no longer doughy in the center, 10 to 20 minutes.

Steps:
- In a heavy pot with a lid place the chicken, onion, lemon, salt, pepper, water, bay leaf and thyme. Simmer all over low heat until tender, about 1 hour.
- Let chicken cool slightly in pot, then remove and take the meat off of the bones. Discard the bones and skin and skim excess fat off the broth if desired. Discard the onion, lemon and bay leaf. If desired, wash out pot well. Return broth and chicken pieces to the pot. Simmer over low heat while making the dumplings.
- To Make Dumplings: In a medium mixing bowl, cut shortening into the flour and salt. Stir in 1/4 cup water (more if needed) to form a soft dough. Roll out dough on a floured surface, with a rolling pin, until very thin. Cut into 1 inch wide strips using a pizza cutter or knife. Tear off 1 inch long pieces from these strips and drop into simmering broth and chicken meat. Simmer for 10 minutes with the lid off, then 10 minutes more with the lid on. Serve immediately.

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.

Steps:
- Place chicken breasts and butter in large stock pot. Salt and pepper to taste. Fill stock pot with chicken broth until chicken is covered by an inch or so. Slowly simmer chicken until falling off bone. Remove chicken and place in refrigerator or freezer to cool rapidly for handling later. Add more chicken broth and cover stock pot and keep at simmering temp. On large flat surface for rolling out dumplings, make circle with 4 cups of plain flour, leaving center open. In the center add egg, salt, 1 cup of hot chicken broth from pot. Slowly incorporate with flour with hands. Be careful though. The dough will be very hot at first and stick to you like napalm! But tough it out! Once well kneaded, pinch off thirds and roll out with rolling pin using extra flour on pin and on dough so it won't stick. Roll out approximately 1/16 inch thick. Roll it thin. Score into 1"x2" strips. Lift and place on separate plate, flouring both sides of dumplings so they won't stick to one another. Repeat until all dough is used. Next steps must be followed exactly: uncover broth. Bring it to a high rolling boil. Add all dumplings at one time, give it a quick stir to separate dumplings. Cover with lid, turn heat down to medium-low or lower if it starts to boil over. Cook for 20 minutes, but do not remove lid during cooking. Do not peek, do not stir! While dumplings are cooking: skin and de-bone chicken then shred into bite sized pieces. After dumplings are done, fold in chicken; being careful not to tear the dumplings apart. Also you can use the spoon to separate any dumplings that may have stuck together during cooking. They readily come apart. Enjoy! Like any kind of stew or soup, they are much better the next day! Keep some broth on hand to help stretch the dish out.
