This is the best chicken n' dumplings recipe I've ever tried. The dumplings are so light and fluffy, and the chicken is cooked perfectly. I will definitely be making this again and again.

I'm not a big fan of dumplings, but I loved these! They were so light and fluffy, and they didn't have that heavy, doughy texture that I usually associate with dumplings.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I had some leftover roasted chicken that I used and it worked perfectly. The dumplings were so easy to make and they cooked up perfectly in the chicken broth.

I've made this recipe a few times now and it's always a hit. The dumplings are so easy to make and they cook up perfectly in the chicken broth. I like to add a little bit of chopped fresh parsley to the dumplings for extra flavor.
