DAD'S CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS
My dad was born and raised in Kentucky and this is my favorite recipe by him. When I was little I would pick out all the dumplings and only eat them. :) I've since learned to love the chicken too!

Steps:
- To make the Chicken and Stock:.
- Place the chicken pieces in a LARGE stockpot and cover with water. (This will be the stock to cook the dumplings in so make sure you have enough liquid.).
- Add remaining chicken ingredients (butter through black pepper) and bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat and simmer until chicken is tender and falling off the bone, about 45 minutes-1 hour.
- Place a colander over a large bowl and strain chicken ingredients, keeping stock and chicken. Discard the veggies.
- Cool chicken and debone.
- To make the Dumplings:.
- Mix flour, baking powder and salt in a large bowl.
- Beat the eggs with 1 cup chicken broth and add to dry dumpling ingredients. (You may need to add more broth to the dough).
- Knead dough on a floured board and roll to about 1/4-inch thickness.
- Cut dough into squares with a pizza cutter. (I like mine about 2" x 2").
- TO FINISH: Pour reserved stock back into the stockpot.
- Add deboned chicken to stock and bring to a boil.
- Once the stock is boiling, gradually add the dumplings. (You may need to add canned chicken broth to make sure there is enough liquid for the dumplings to cook).
- Cook dumplings for 15-20 minutes and serve.
