Steps:
- Start by putting the chicken in a pot and covering it with water. Bring the water to a boil, and then reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 45 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pot. Set the chicken aside to cool briefly.
- Shred the chicken with 2 forks, reserving the bones. Return the bones to the pot and boil for 20 minutes. Remove the bones from the pot and discard.
- Add the shredded chicken, carrots, celery and onions to the pot. Then add the salt, pepper, thyme and turmeric. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, and then reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in the noodles; no need to thaw them first!
- Finally, mix the flour with 1/2 cup water until smooth. Stir the flour mixture, the splash of half and half (if you're into that kind of thing) and the minced parsley into the pot. Simmer until the noodles are tender, about 15 minutes, tasting and adding more salt if needed at the end. The soup should be thick and stew-like and your kitchen should smell like home.

This is real comfort food. People will think that you made it from scratch. We like it for a fast meal, for pot-luck dinners, for chilly nights, etc. You can use boned chicken, but for a truly dump and cook meal, use the canned chicken meat. You will love it. I posted this recipe on another site and it has received only five star ratings.

CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS FOR TWO
I think I saw this in Cooking Light - the library's copier was broken, so I scribbled down the ingredients and directions on a slip of paper. I don't usually have celery, so used green beans and added a teaspoonful or so of dry celery leaves for flavor. I've also made it with leftover chicken, added mushrooms, used fresh herbs or different herbs, and made other changes on the fly. I love that it makes a small quantity for those of us with small households. Update: I recently served this over hot cooked noodles, and that was another nice way to have this dish.

Steps:
- Combine chicken and marinade ingredients and set aside for at least 20 minutes.
- Combine the Nuoc Cham ingredients and mix well to dissolve the sugar. Adjust to your taste (spiciness, lime, sweetness) and set aside.
- Soak the vermicelli noodles in hot water for 3 minutes (or according to packet instructions), then drain and rinse under cold water to stop the noodles from sticking together.
- Heat the 1/2 tablespoon oil in a fry pan over medium heat. Remove chicken from marinade and place chicken in the pan and cook each side until dark golden brown and chicken is just cooked through, about 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside to rest for 5 minutes. Then slice into thin pieces.
- Divide the noodles between 2 bowls. Then either top or lightly toss through the vegetables and herbs and top with chicken pieces. Drizzle with a few tablespoons of Nuoc Cham Sauce and serve with lime wedges.

Tips:
- Use a combination of white and dark meat chicken. This will give your soup a more flavorful broth.
- Don't overcrowd the pot. If you add too much chicken or noodles, the soup will be too thick and the noodles will be mushy.
- Simmer the soup for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld and the chicken to become tender.
- Add the noodles during the last 10 minutes of cooking. This will prevent them from becoming overcooked.
- Season the soup to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste.
- Garnish the soup with fresh herbs, such as parsley or chives. This will add a pop of color and flavor.
