Homemade Chicken N Dumplin's
Directions
- 1In a large pot, add 2 lbs of cut up chicken breasts, 4 cups of chicken broth and 1 tsp of salt. Bring to a boil, then set a timer for 10 minutes.
- 2In a bowl, add 4 cups of all-purpose flour and 3 good dollops of shortening. Cut the shortening into the flour with a fork until it's real crumbly.
- 3Make a well in the middle and add 1 ¾ C milk. Push the milk around and around in the bowl until it's dry, adding more milk until all the milk is gone. Knead it around a little bit in the bowl.
- 4Flour your surface and turn your dough out onto your floured surface. Knead it around a few times.
- 5Flour your rolling pin and roll your dough out real thin. Cut your dough out into about 1 inch squares with a knife (or use a pizza cutter).
- 6When the 10 minute timer goes off, add ½ C butter, 2 Tbsp Morton Nature's Season chicken and 4 C chicken broth to the chicken. Bring to a boil, then add dumplings. Add salt and pepper to taste when it is done. Stir every once in a while to keep it from sticking.
