Bethy's Kitchen Corner

Again, it's time for... Bethy's Kitchen Corner.  Brought to you this week by the color purple and the letters "C" and "D".  The "c" and "d" standing for Chicken & Dumplings, of course!  I decided to make this delicious meal this weekend while at the 'rent's house.  It's always such an easy yet mucho delicioso meal.  Have you ever made Chicken and Dumplings?  Well, here's our Easy Peasy Delicious recipe if you would like to run home and make this tasty dish tonight...





Easy Peasy Chicken and Dumplings
What you will need:
2 - 3 Chicken breasts              2 - 3 cans of chicken broth (one can per chicken breast)
Salt, Garlic salt, and other preferred seasonings (try using McCormick herb chicken seasoning)
2 c flour                                  4 tbs I mean tsp! baking powder
2 tbs shortening                       1 tsp salt
Milk

If you have a crock pot, combine chicken breasts with chicken broth and set crock pot to cook on low for 8 to 10 hours.  We like to cook the chicken overnight, then refrigerate until the next evening.  If you do not have a crock pot, just boil the chicken breasts in a large pot with the broth and enough water to fill the pot 3/4 full.  Again, it's better if the chicken is cooked the day before and then sits in the broth until the next day.  Let chicken cool and then cut up into tiny pieces.  Place cut chicken in large stock put and fill with broth and water until the pot is 3/4 full.  Bring to a boil...
While the chicken is coming to a boil, prepare the dumplings by combining the flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.  Cut in the shortening.  Combine milk slowly to dry mixture until soft dough forms.
Once chicken mixture is boiling, drop teaspoon fulls of dumpling mixture to pot.  Cover and let cook for 12 minutes.

And that's it!  Easy peasy right?!  Enjoy!
