Recipe from Michelle, 2023

Ingredients:
1 Whole Chicken
1 cup Chicken Stock
Seasoning (salt, pepper, garlic, bay leaf and Italian seasoning)
1 cup flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 Tablespoon cooking oil
1 egg
Yellow Food Coloring for color (optional)
Cold water (a few drops at a time until dough can be rolled with a pin)

Bring water and chicken bouillon and whatever seasoning you like (salt, pepper, garlic salt, bay leave and Italian seasoning) to a boil. Put the chicken a large pot and add the chicken stock and water to cover the chicken. Bring to a boil and cook the chicken for about 1 hour. You may need to turn the stove down as the chicken cooks, so it does not spill the water out of the pot. Take the chicken out of the pot and let cool and keep the bouillon water in the pot. Debone the chicken once it is cool and tear into small pieces.
Put the flour and the other ingredients in a large bowl and mix together. Then add enough water until the dough is firm and you can roll the dough. Put a big piece of wax paper on the counter and put some flour on the paper. Then roll the dough real thin and cut into small pieces. This will make about 25 to 27 small dumplings depending on how you cut them. You can make more batches of the dumpling mixture depending on how many servings you need.
Bring the water back to a boil and start adding the dumplings a few at a time. Cook for about 30 minutes on boil. Then simmer for about 1 hour until dumplings are tender. Add the chicken back to the pot at the end of the 1 hour. Enjoy 😊
