We Loved This Chicken And Dumplings Recipe. The Chicken Broth Was Delicious, Due To Boiling A Whole Hen To Make The Broth, Deboning The Meat, And Adding Homemade Thick Dumplings..so Delicious! Ty For Sharing..a Keeper! 2.13.13

These Are Awesome. Trust Me Everybody Will Want You To Make Them Again And Again. They Are A Little Time Consuming But Well Worth It.

You are welcome..I actually try to make as much possible, since my sons have big appetites and love this recipe..but even though I nearly double it, the Chicken and Dumplings is usually gone by the next morning..which is good. I love stews like this due to being so hearty of a meal and so good with salad and homemade breads..such a great dinner and very healthy and fulfilling one too!♥

You are welcome Cynthia..we really loved it! It did not last very long after making it, since my sons kept going into the kitchen all evening, in order to get another bowl of it. I loved the natural chicken broth juices from the boiled hen, and the tenderized meat that was in it after de-boning the boiled hen. The dumplings were thick and cut into large squares, and were so tender and delicious added to the natural chicken broth and chicken meat..also loved the added diced hard boiled eggs in it too..gave it a added special taste and seemed to make it creamier also! I am keeping this recipe, since my whole family loved it..thank you for sharing!♥

I'm so excited y'all liked it. It has been in my family for decades and it what I grew up on. It is the most requested thing my Momma always has for the holidays or any event. I'm so tickled.
