Chicken Dumpling

Ingredients:

• 3-4 lbs chicken pieces
• 8 cups water
• 2 chicken bouillon cubes
• Dumplings:
• 2 cups flour (more for the board and your hands)
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• ½ cup butter
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ½ cup water

Method:

Cook chicken pieces in water with bouillon cubes. This should take about 30 minutes. Remove pieces from water and cut chicken into chunks. Return to pan.

To make the dumplings:

Combine dry ingredients. Cut cold butter through flour with food processor or two knives until mixture is similar to breadcrumbs. Add a little water and knead a few times. Keep adding water until your dough forms a smooth ball. If the dough gets too sticky, you may have to add more flour. Roll onto floured board to 1/8" thickness and cut into 1" squares.

Bring chicken and stock to a full boil before dropping in squares. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 10 minutes until dumplings are done.
