• Set oven to 350°F.
• Sprinkle half the creole seasoning on top and bottom of chicken breasts. Then lay chicken breasts skin down into an 8x by 8x baking dish. Cover with tin foil and bake for an hour.
• Chop up your onion, celery, red and green bell peppers and your garlic.
• In a large soup pot or dutch oven add your olive oil. Turn heat to hight and when it starts to get hot add your veggies. Sweat them for at least 3 minutes before adding the rest of the creole seasoning, the chicken stock, bay leaf, black pepper and thyme. Bring to a boil and then turn to Med-Low.
• When the hour is up take the chicken out of the oven and let rest for 5-10 minutes. Once rested and cooled you'll want to take the chicken off the bone and add meat to the pot of simmering soup. Discard all skin and bones but add the juices at the bottom of your baking dish to your pot. Add green beans. Let simmer about 10 minutes.
• In a mixing bowl combine flour, baking powder, parsley, pepper, salt, eggs and water until it looks like a thick paste. You may need to add another teaspoon or two of water depending on the size of your eggs.
• Turn heat back up to Med-High until it's brought to a heavy boil. Using two teaspoons spoon the dumpling mixture teaspoon by teaspoon into the soup. Once all the dumplings have bounced back up to the surface you know they are done. Turn heat back down to low and let simmer for about 5 minutes before serving.

OLD FASHIONED HOMEMADE CHICKEN & DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• CHICKEN AND BROTH: Place chicken breast or whole chicken with skin in a Dutch oven and cover with water.
• Add a stick of butter and chicken bouillon. Cook over medium heat until chicken is tender, about 45 minutes for chicken breasts or 1 hr 15 minutes for the 3 lb chicken. Remove chicken from the broth and let chicken cool. Do not get rid of the broth. Remove skin and bones and discard. Shred chicken or chop into bite-size pieces. I don't put mine back into the broth until after the dumplings have cooked.
• FOR DUMPLINGS: In a small mixing bowl, add eggs to the melted butter. Whisk.
• Take half of a shell and add milk to it six times... pour into the egg mixture.
• Add in salt and pepper.
• Add 3 cups of flour; mixing in the flour a little at a time.
• You want the dough to be rather sticky.
• Add a couple of drops of yellow food coloring to give it a rich looking blend.
• Heap about 2 cups of flour onto a wooden board or counter.
• Using a tablespoon, add about a cup of the mixture to the center of the flour.
• Start incorporating the flour and the dough until you can roll it out and it doesn't stick.
• Roll very thin.
• Using a pizza cutter, cut strips of the dough.
• Add to the broth. Make sure it is boiling rapidly and that you have plenty of broth to keep your dumplings from scorching.
• Turn down to low while you make the next batch. It's easier to roll out using small batches than trying to roll it all out at one time.
• After you have added the last dumpling, add the chicken back to the Dutch oven and stir very gently.
• Remove from heat and place a lid on the pot.
• Let sit for 10 minutes or so before serving.
