Large Pot on Stove..
Large Pack of Chicken (we use drumsticks-12 pack).
Place chicken in pot so they are tight to the bottom. Cover with just enough water to cover chicken and Boil for 20 Min, add salt and pepper while boiling.
While Chicken is boiling, we take a 4 pack of Pillsbury biscuits and cut them up in half's and quarters and set aside.
Remove chicken from water, drain in colander and place chicken in fridge for a bout 10 min.
Add 2 cans of Chicken stock to water leftover in pan... bring to low boil. SLOWLY start adding biscuits...until all are in pot. Make sure they are all covered in water. And cook for 20 minutes on low boil.
While biscuits are cooking, peel chicken meet from bone and set aside.
Once your biscuits have been in for 20 minutes, add chicken and turn to low simmer and cover for 20 more minutes.
Add milk to thicken and salt and pepper to taste. Serve with buttered bread and sliced cheddar cheese.
Sorry if it doesnt make sense, I wrote it like I think about cooking it.

Ingredients
Chicken:
1 (2 1/2-pound) chicken, cut into 8 pieces
3 ribs celery, chopped
1 large onion, chopped
2 bay leaves
2 chicken bouillon cubes
1 teaspoon House Seasoning, recipe follows
1 (10 3/4-ounce) can condensed cream of celery or cream of chicken soup
Dumplings:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
Ice water
Directions
To start the chicken: Place the chicken, celery, onion, bay leaves, bouillon, and House Seasoning in a large pot. Add 3 quarts of water and in water and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Simmer the chicken until it is tender and the thigh juices run clear, about 40 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pot and, when it is cool enough to handle, remove the skin and separate the meat from the bones. Return the chicken meat to the pot. Keep warm over low heat.
To prepare the dumplings: Mix the flour with the salt and mound together in a mixing bowl. Beginning at the center of the mound, drizzle a small amount of ice water over the flour. Using your fingers, and moving from the center to the sides of the bowl, gradually incorporate about 3/4 cup of ice water. Knead the dough and form it into ball.
Dust a good amount of flour onto a clean work surface. Roll out the dough (it will be firm), working from center to 1/8-inch thick. Let the dough relax for several minutes.
Add the cream of celery soup to the pot with the chicken and simmer gently over medium-low heat.
Cut the dough into 1-inch pieces. Pull a piece in half and drop the halves into the simmering soup. Repeat. Do not stir the chicken once the dumplings have been added. Gently move the pot in a circular motion so the dumplings become submerged and cook evenly. Cook until the dumplings float and are no longer doughy, 3 to 4 minutes.
To serve, ladle chicken, gravy, and dumplings into warm bowls.
Cook's Note: If the chicken stew is too thin it can be thickened before the dumplings are added. Simply mix together 2 tablespoons cornstarch and 1/4 cup of water then whisk this mixture into the stew.
House Seasoning:
1 cup salt
1/4 cup black pepper
1/4 cup garlic powder
Mix ingredients together and store in an airtight container for up to 6 months.
Yield: 1 1/2 cups

My brother uses canned bisquits but they taste like bisquits.
This is how I do mine.
1 bag leg quarters
1 box bisquick
Take one bag of leg quarters and boil until falling off the bone.
Pull meat out and let it cool.
Pull meat off the bone and strain the broth.
Put the meat back in the broth.
Look on side of bisquick box and mix up a batch of dumplings.
Before adding dumpling add a good bit of black pepper.
Take a tea spoon and scoop out a small spoon full of dough and drop in (no rolling or cutting). After spooning in quite a few spoons then lightly stir.
Repeat until all the dough is in the pot.
Let simmer for awhile.
The dumpling will have a lil of the dough to dissolve it will make like a thick gravy.
The best dumplings I've ever had!!!!! Dumplings are light and fluffyLast edited by switchback; 10-11-2010, 10:32 PM.
