Steps:
- Place the chicken breasts into a large soup pot, cover with water, and sprinkle in the salt, black pepper, and sage.

- While chicken is cooling, bring the chicken broth left in the pot back to a boil over medium heat, and stir in the celery, onion powder, and garlic powder. Reduce heat to a simmer, and cook until the celery is tender, about 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, whisk 1 cup of all-purpose flour, the whole wheat flour, salt, and baking powder together in a mixing bowl. Stir in the cream to make a dough. Sprinkle a work surface with the remaining 1/4 cup of flour, and roll the dough out about 1/4-inch thick. Using a pizza cutter, cut the dough into 1 1/2 inch squares. Toss the dumplings in the flour on the work surface.

Steps:
- For the chicken: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Remove the neck and giblets from the cavity of the chicken and discard. Rinse the chicken under cold water, inside and out. Pat dry thoroughly with paper towels. Season the body and cavity of the chicken generously with salt and pepper.
- In a small bowl, mash together the butter, lemon juice, and chopped herbs. Rub the herbed butter all over the chicken, as well as under the skin. Put the lemon halves, onion, garlic, and whole herbs inside the chicken cavity, for added flavor. Tie the legs together with kitchen twine. Place the chicken, breast side up, in a roasting pan fitted with a rack. Roast for 1 hour until the meat is no longer pink. When cool enough to handle, shred the meat, discarding the skin and set aside. Reserve the bones for chicken stock.
- For the stock: Coat a large stockpot with olive oil and place over medium heat. Add the vegetables and saute for 3 minutes. Add the reserved chicken bones, water, and herbs; simmer for 1 hour. Strain the stock to remove the solids and set aside.
- For the dumplings: sift dry ingredients together in a large bowl. In a small bowl, lightly beat the eggs and milk together; pour the liquid in the dry ingredients and gently fold. Mix just until the dough comes together, the batter should be thick and cake-like.
- For the sauce: In a Dutch oven, melt butter and heat oil over medium heat. Add carrot, celery, garlic, and bay leaves. Saute until the vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in the flour to make a roux. Continue to stir and cook for 2 minutes to coat the flour and remove the starchy taste. Slowly pour in the chicken stock, 1 cup at a time, stirring well after each addition.
- Let sauce simmer until it is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 15 minutes. Stir in heavy cream.
- Fold the reserved shredded chicken into the sauce and bring up to a simmer. Using 2 spoons, carefully drop heaping tablespoonfuls of the dumpling batter into the hot mixture. The dumplings should cover the top of the sauce, but should not be touching or crowded. Let the dumplings poach for 10 to 15 minutes until they are firm and puffy. Season with freshly cracked black pepper and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.

Steps:
- Rinse the chicken and pat dry. Season with 1 tablespoon salt and pepper. Add 2 tablespoons of the oil to a large stockpot over high heat. Add the chicken pieces and lightly brown evenly, removing and adding as necessary. Once all of the chicken is browned, add ingredients through smashed garlic. Brown the vegetables over high heat for 5 to 6 minutes, then add in the water, peppercorns, savory and bay leaf and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a strong simmer and after 20 minutes, check the chicken pieces, removing as they finish cooking. Remove the chicken, to a cutting board and cool until you are able to handle, then the strip meat and put bones back into pot.
- Simmer the stock and bone mixture, uncovered, for 45 minutes. Strain and adjust seasoning with additional salt, if needed. Chop the meat, discarding any skin, ligament or fat as you go and set aside.
- In a separate saute pan over medium heat, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil and diced vegetables. Saute until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes, then add the garlic and red chili flakes and saute for 1 minute more. Add the vegetables to the strained chicken stock, then in the same saute pan, add the butter. When melted, add the flour and stir constantly for 2 minutes. Slowly ladle in some of the hot stock, whisking as you add, until approximately 2 cups of stock have been added. Add the roux mixture back into the stock pot and combine well. Add the cream and the chicken back into the stock pot and keep at a low simmer while you prepare the dumplins.
- In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients. In a separate medium, nonreactive bowl, combine the wet ingredients, adding the melted butter last.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and with a rubber spatula, very gently, fold together until just combined.
- Using 2 dinner spoons, shape the dough into golf ball-size, quenelle shaped biscuits and drop them into the hot soup. Cover with a tight fitting lid and allow the dumplins to cook for 15 to 20 minutes over low heat.
- Ladle into soup bowls and serve hot.
SLOW SIMMER CHICKEN AND DUMPLINS
It's the Cracker Barrel recipe. I got it from the Copycat Recipes website. It's rather long but worth it. I was raised eating chicken and dumplins but was never able to re-create it like my daddy's. This recipe is right on target!

Steps:
- In a large pot, bring chicken broth liquid to a boil. Add chicken, plus 1 tsp of salt & onion, celery, bay leaf & parsley into the pot. Reduce heat to a simmer & cook the chicken uncovered for 2 hours. The chicken liquid will reduce by about 1/3rd. (I used my crock pot and it worked very well).
- When the chicken has cooked, remove it from the pot & set aside to cool. Strain the stock to remove the veggies & floating scum, what you have left is the stock & chicken. I saved the celery and carrots and put them back into the broth. Discard all else.
- Pour 1 1/2 quarts (6 cups) of the stock in a smaller pot (save the balance for another use & it can be frozen). Add pepper, the remaining salt, & the lemon juice. Reheat the stock over medium heat while preparing the dumplins.
- Combine flour and ingredients in a medium bowl. Stir well till smooth, then let dough rest for about 10 minutes. Roll out dough on a floured surface to approximately 1/2 inch thick. Dough is very wet and sticky. Add extra flour as needed to roll it out.
- Cut dough into 1/2 inch squares & drop each into the simmering chicken stock. As the pot gets crowded, move dumplins out of the way with a wooden spoon as you carefully drop the rest of the dumplins into the simmering broth. Use all the squares. The dumplins will swell at first & then slowly shrink in size as they partially dissolve to thicken the stock to a white gravy. Simmer for 20-30 minutes till thick. STIR OFTEN.
- While the stock is thickening, the chicken will have become cool enough to handle. Tear all the meat from the bones & remove the skin. Cut the meat into bite size pieces & drop it into the pot. Discard the skin & bones. Continue to simmer for another 5 to 10 minutes, do not stir vigorously or the chicken will shred & fall apart. We want to strive for big Chunks at the completion of our recipe.
- When the thickened soup has reached the desired consistency, serve hot.

Tips:
- Prep Ingredients: Before starting, measure and prep all ingredients to ensure a smooth cooking process.
- Use Fresh Vegetables: Fresh vegetables, like carrots, onions, and celery, add flavor and texture to the dumplings. Choose crisp and vibrant veggies for the best results.
- Tender Chicken: To ensure tender chicken, cook it until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Use a meat thermometer for accurate measurement.
- Season Well: Don't be shy with seasonings. Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and other herbs or spices to create a flavorful dish.
- Dumpling Dough: The dumpling dough should be pliable and easy to work with. If it's too dry, add a little more water; if it's too wet, add more flour. Cover the dough while resting to prevent it from drying out.
- Rolling the Dough: When rolling out the dumpling dough, aim for a thickness of about 1/8 inch (3 mm). This will ensure that the dumplings cook evenly.
- Cooking the Dumplings: Gently drop the dumplings into boiling water and let them cook until they float to the top. This indicates that they are cooked through.
- Serve Hot: Chicken and dumplings is best served hot, straight from the pot. Accompany it with sides like mashed potatoes or a fresh green salad for a complete meal.
