How To Make chicken and scallion drop dumplings

• Step 1
  In a stock pot, combine the chicken, broth, celery, and bay leaves together. Bring to a boil.
• Step 2
  Reduce to a simmer and simmer about 45 minutes. Remove the chicken and reserve the broth. Discard the bay leaves.
• Step 3
  When the chicken is cool enough to handle, pick the meat off the bones and discard the bones and skin. Chop up bigger pieces and set aside.
• Step 4
  In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups of flour, the baking powder, salt, and milk. Stir in the scallions.
• Step 5
  Bring the broth to a simmer and drop the dumplings into the broth until all the dumpling batter is used up.
• Step 6
  Don't stir, just shake the pan so the dumplings won't break apart. Cover the pan and simmer for 15 minutes.
• Step 7
  Meanwhile, melt the butter in a pan and add the 1 Tbsp of flour. Stir in the heavy cream.
• Step 8
  When the dumplings are done, add the heavy cream mixture and chicken back to the pan.
• Step 9
  Shake the pan, swirling in a circle to incorporate the chicken and cream.
• Step 10
  Garnish with parsley and serve.
