Steps:
- In a stockpot or Dutch oven, add broth, celery, onion, and chicken breasts.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, partially covered, for about 15 minutes, until the chicken breast is cooked through. While the chicken is cooking, prepare the dumplings.
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the milk just until combined into a shaggy dough.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and roll to about 1/4 inch thickness.
- Use a pizza cutter to cut the dough into strips or squares about 1 to 2 inches in size.
- Once the chicken is cooked through, remove it to a cutting board. Remove the onion chunk and celery pieces and discard.
- Add the dough strips to the simmering broth and simmer for about 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally, allowing the dumplings to cook and the broth to thicken to a gravy-like consistency.
- While the dumplings are simmering, shred or chop chicken and return to the pot.
- Add salt and pepper to taste, then serve warm.

BETTER THAN CRACKER BARREL® CHICKEN 'N DUMPLINGS
My Grandma grew up on a farm and this was her recipe - no shortcuts but still pretty easy. For best results you must use a whole chicken and flour. You can also use some chicken stock for added flavor. The trick is the lemon which makes the chicken tender and adds flavor to the soup. Leftovers won't last very long with this.

Steps:

- Discard lemon. Remove chicken from the pot; let cool.

CRACKER BARREL CHICKEN & DUMPLINGS
This takes a long time, but it is worth the work. If you decide to use canned broth, cut the salt in the dumplings. (I'm guesstimating on the prep/cook time.)

Steps:
- Boil 3 quarts water in a large pot.
- Add chicken, 1 t salt, onion, celery, garlic, bay leaf and parsley and simmer for 2 hours.
- The liquid will reduce by 1/3.
- When chicken is cooked, remove it and set aside.
- Strain stock and throw away everything but the stock.
- Put 6 cups of the stock back into the pot. (Leftover stock can be frozen.)
- Add the pepper, 1/2 t salt and lemon juice and reheat while you mix dumplings.
- For dumplings, mix flour, baking powder, 1-1/4 t salt and milk in a medium bowl.
- Stir until smooth, then let dough rest for 5-10 minutes.
- Roll dough onto a floured surface to about 1/2 inch thickness. (Handle the dough as little as possible for good dumplings).
- Cut the dough into 1/2 inch squares (I use a pizza cutter) and drop each square into the simmering stock.
- Use all of the dough.
- The dumplings will first swell and then slowly shrink as they partially dissolve to thicken the stock into a white gravy.
- Simmer for 20 to 30 minutes until thick.
- Stir often.
- While the stock is thickening, the chicken will have cooled.
- Tear all the meat from the bones and remove the skin.
- Cut chicken into bite sized pieces and drop them into the pot.
- Cook for another 5 to 10 minutes, but stir carefully so you don't break the chicken up.
- When the gravy has reached the desired consistency, ladle four portions onto plates and serve hot.
- (Very good over mashed potatoes.).

Steps:
- In a bowl combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut the butter into the dry ingredients with a fork or pastry blender. Stir in the milk, mixing with a fork until the dough forms a ball. Heavily flour a work surface. You'll need a rolling pin and something to cut the dumplings with. I like to use a pizza cutter. I also like to use a small spatula to lift the dumplings off the cutting surface. Roll the dough out thin with a heavily floured rolling pin. Dip your cutter in flour and cut the dumplings in squares about 2x2-inches each. It's okay for them not to be exact. Just eye ball it. Some will be bigger, some smaller, and some might be shaped funny. Use the floured spatula to put them on a heavily floured plate. Just keep flouring between the layers of dumplings. To cook them, bring the broth to a boil. Drop the dumplings in one at a time, stirring while you add them. The extra flour on them will help thicken the broth. Cook them for about 15 to 20 minutes or until they don't taste doughy. Add the cooked chicken to the pot and serve.
CRACKER BARREL DUMPLINGS ~ COPY CAT
Cracker Barrel Restaurants serve a side dish called dumplings. This is not their chicken & dumplings main dish. It is a delicious side of just the dumplings without chicken. You could easily add chicken to this recipe if you wanted chicken & dumplings. They are so yummy and they do taste just like Cracker Barrel's Dumplins! You...

Steps:
- 1. Mix the flour, baking powder, salt, milk, and oil, blending well, and turn out on to a floured surface. Knead four or five times. Roll out dough to 1/8-inch thick and cut into 1 x 1 1/2-inch dumplings.
- 2. In a large saucepan, combine the water and bouillon cubes/soup base. Boil until the bouillon cubes/soup base dissolve. Cook the dumplings until just about done; dumplings are done when they float up towards the top of the pot. Use a strainer to remove them to a bowl and set aside. Reserve the cooking liquid.
- 3. While the dumplings are cooking, you can start to prepare the sauce. Melt the butter in medium saucepan. Add salt and flour; stir until thick. Mix the sugar with the milk and add to flour mixture a little at a time, stirring constantly with a whisk until thick and smooth. Remove from heat. Add the cooked dumplings to the sauce.
- 4. Reserve 3/4-1 cup of the cooking liquid and stir gently into the sauce and dumplings. Return to low heat and simmer until blended. If the sauce seems too thick, gently stir in a little more cooking liquid. Add pepper to taste.
CHICKEN AND CRACKER DUMPLINGS (CZECH)
This recipe is handed down from my husband's Czech grandmother (although has been slightly modified to use modern amenities like a food processor). Economical, fairly easy to make, filling, and tastes great. I usually use chicken thighs, but you can also use a whole chicken cut up, or bone-in breasts. The dumplings are not the fluffy kind, but a denser textured dumpling. Fresh parsley makes a difference, although dried can be substituted if necessary.

- Cook the chicken. Add 4 cups of water and the 4 chicken bouillon cubes to a stockpot. Cover with a lid and turn on medium heat, until the water is boiling.
- Whisk the butter and eggs. While the chicken is cooking, whisk together the softened butter and the eggs. There may be some clumps of butter, this is okay!
- Mix the dumpling dough. Mix in the flour, salt, and baking soda into the egg mixture with a spoon. Continue to mix until the lumps smooth out.
- Drop in the dumplings. Add the heavy cream into the stockpot, then drop the dough into the pot by spoonfuls. Place the stockpot over medium-low heat and cook for another 8 minutes with the lid on.
- Serve with Cracker Barrel sides! When the chicken and dumplings are done, break apart the cooked dumplings with a spoon and sprinkle on the pepper. Serve with green beans and biscuits for the full Cracker Barrel experience.
