Prep Time: 25 minutes (ready in 2 hours 10 minutes) - Yield: 4 servings
CHICKEN
2 1/4 to 3 pounds cut-up broiler-fryer chickens
4 to 4 1/2 cups water
2 stalks celery with leaves, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/2 cup sliced carrots
2 sprigs fresh parsley, if desired
1 bay leaf
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
DUMPLINGS
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
Dash nutmeg, if desired
1/3 cup milk
1 tablespoon oil or melted shortening
1 egg, slightly beaten
GRAVY
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1. In 4-quart Dutch oven, combine all chicken ingredients. Bring to a boil. Cover; simmer 1 to 1 1/2 hours or until chicken is fork-tender and juices run clear. Skim off fat.
2. In medium bowl, combine 3/4 cup flour, chopped parsley, baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt and nutmeg; mix well. Add all remaining dumpling ingredients; stir just until dry ingredients are moistened.
3. Bring broth and chicken in Dutch oven to a boil. Drop dough by tablespoonfuls onto boiling broth and hot chicken. Cover tightly. Reduce heat to low; do not lift cover. Simmer 12 to 15 minutes or until dumplings are fluffy and dry.
4. To prepare gravy, arrange dumplings and chicken on serving platter; cover to keep warm. Strain 1 2/3 cups broth into medium saucepan. In small bowl, combine 1/2 cup water and 1/4 cup flour; blend until smooth. Bring broth to a boil. Gradually stir in flour mixture; cook and stir until thickened. Stir in 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Pour over chicken and dumplings.
