CHICKEN N DUMPLINS MADE EASY

1 pre-roasted chicken 6 cups canned chicken broth DUMPLINS 2 cups all purpose flour 1 TBS baking powder 1 1/4 tsp salt 1 cup plus 2 TBS milk Directions: Pour your chicken broth in a large, heavy sauce pan and boil on high heat. Peel back and discard chicken skin and flake off medium sized chunks of your chicken and set aside To Make Dumplins: Combine the flour, baking powder, 1 1/4 tsp salt and milk in medium bowl. Stir well until smooth, then let the dough rest of 5 min. Roll the dough out onto a floured surface to 1/2 inch thickness. Cut 1/2 inch squares with a knife or pizza cutter. Drop each square into the simmering broth. The dumplins will swell then shrink as they partially dissolve to thicken the broth into gravy. Simmer 20 - 30 min until thick. Stir often. Add chicken and cook another 5 min Season with pepper (no salt need because the broth is salty enough) Enjoy!
