Steps:
- Mix flour and shortening together in a bowl until it resembles cornmeal.
- Slightly beat egg and milk together in a separate bowl. Add to flour mixture and stir to form a ball of dough. Place onto a floured surface; knead and roll as thin as possible using a floured rolling pin. Let dough stand for 2 hours.
- Place chicken into a large pot and add water to just cover. Bring to a boil over high heat and continue to boil until chicken is no longer pink in the center and meat falls off of the bone, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
- Remove chicken from the pot; strain broth and return to the pot. Add 2 cups water and bouillon. Remove meat from bones and return to broth. Add celery, carrots, and onion. Bring to a boil; continue to boil for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cut dough into strips, approximately 1-inch wide. Tear strips and drop into boiling broth. Continue to boil for 10 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper and serve.

Steps:
- 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
This is definitely a delicious old fashioned chicken and dumplings recipe. It reminds us of something mom used to make. The from-scratch airy dumplings soak up the chicken flavor of the homemade broth. We opted to use a whole roasting chicken which, when shredded, adds tons of meat that mixes with the tasty dumplings. The perfect...

Steps:
- 1. CHICKEN AND BROTH: Place chicken breast or whole chicken with skin in a Dutch oven and cover with water.
- 2. 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.
- 3. FOR DUMPLINGS: In a small mixing bowl, add eggs to the melted butter. Whisk.
- 4. Take half of a shell and add milk to it six times... pour into the egg mixture.
- 5. Add in salt and pepper.
- 6. Add 3 cups of flour; mixing in the flour a little at a time.
- 7. You want the dough to be rather sticky.
- 8. Add a couple of drops of yellow food coloring to give it a rich looking blend.
- 9. Heap about 2 cups of flour onto a wooden board or counter.
- 10. Using a tablespoon, add about a cup of the mixture to the center of the flour.
- 11. Start incorporating the flour and the dough until you can roll it out and it doesn't stick.
- 12. Roll very thin.
- 13. Using a pizza cutter, cut strips of the dough.
- 14. Add to the broth. Make sure it is boiling rapidly and that you have plenty of broth to keep your dumplings from scorching.
- 15. 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.
- 16. After you have added the last dumpling, add the chicken back to the Dutch oven and stir very gently.
- 17. Remove from heat and place a lid on the pot.
- 18. Let sit for 10 minutes or so before serving.
OLD-FASHIONED CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS
This is an old family recipe developed by my grandmother, whose arthritic hands would not allow her to roll noodles. Each generation has made small changes to suit their families. A simple and wholesome chicken and dumpling soup.

GRANDMA'S DUMPLINGS FROM SCRATCH: 100+ YEAR OLD RECIPE
Grandma would always make these for us when we were under the weather. She would cook a chicken in a pot with water, carrots, onions, and celery until it was done. Then she would pull all the chicken meat of the bone, and put it back into the broth (she would taste it after the meat was added and then add salt, pepper, and a little parsley). I always sat on the counter and watched her throw everything in a pan without measuring, and they were AMAZING. Finally, I asked her to write it down for me, and I'm glad I did. Posting on here so I never lose this recipe! She always rolled them out thin and used a knife to cut them into pieces. They were never the same shape, but that's how we knew when Grandma made them :) NOTE: Grandma learned how to make these from her mother, so this is the OLD school recipe for dumplings. I am writing it like she gave it to me. Scant teaspoon means a little under the measurement: not quite to the top but not 1/4 less.

Steps:
- Mix the first 6 ingredients together until combined. Slowly add the water until you form a dough. You may have to add more or less water to form the ball.
- Roll out the dumpling dough on a floured surface thin and cut into bite size pieces.
- Drop them one at a time into simmering chicken/broth. She would always drop a few then wait a bit, then drop a few more. She said this kept them from sticking together in the end. After they are all added, give a gentle stir (once or twice around the pot, then leave it alone).
- Let the dumplings simmer in the chicken/broth mixture until they float to the top (about 15 minutes or so). I have let them simmer a longer, and that's fine. She would taste the broth one last time after the dumplings were done for seasoning before we got to eat them!
