Chicken Dumpling Soup
- 3 to 4 celery stalks
- 1/2 bag baby carrots (or your favorite)
- 4 to 5 chicken breasts (or whole chicken)
- 2 chicken boulion cubes
- 1 lg. can chicken broth
- 6 eggs
- 2 cups flour
- 1 tsp. salt
- dash of pepper
- Boil your chicken, until chicken is no longer pink, while this is cooking, cut up your veggies.
- I usually cut up the baby carrots into coins shapes.
- If using chicken breast, cut up into bit size pieces, if using a whole chicken, break down into eatable pieces, removing skin, bones and gross stuff (this is why I use the breast, cuts down on time).
- Strain your cooking water, this will remove some of the fat that has fallen in, but usable still for a good portion of your broth.
- Now, add can of broth, and bouilon cubes.
- This makes the somewhat bland broth a little more flavorful.
- Add your veggies and chicken, and boil until your veggies are cooked.
- When soup is complete, you will want to make dumpling mix, which is beating eggs with fork and slowly adding your two cups of flour.
- Add salt & pepper to taste.
- This will be a very very thick mixture, but refrain from adding water or milk, this could ruin your dumplings.
- While soup is BOILING, drop dumpling mix in by fork full.
- If you hold fork in water for a few seconds, they should fall off.
- Then when you have all of your mix in there, your soup will look to have only dumplings.
- They should all be at the top, cover, and continue to cook an additional 15-20 minutes.
- They should be fully cooked by then.
- Once you refridgerate the soup, the dumpling will drop.
- Enjoy, and you can do any variation to the recipe, but please don't mess with the dumplings!
