The Best Chicken and Dumplings Recipe

You can break this cozy classic chicken recipe into three easy steps. We love starting with a whole chicken and making the broth from scratch (it only takes an hour). If you are short on time, I have included a speedier option using store-bought broth in the recipe (linked below).

I, m 73 and have never cooked an entire chicken. Next Tuesday my 26 year old friend, who has never cooked an entire chicken and me are going to tackle your recipe.
You have inspired us. Thank you😊

my mom made this pretty much the same way. She let the dumplings thicken the broth so much it was almost sauce like. Served it over rice. My favorite dinner ever!!

I can't believe I actually made dumplings! And a soup made from a whole chicken, vs. a carcass! This was sooo good. I was searching for a chicken noodle soup recipe and honestly I had to make this after watching the video because the hosts were so convincing. What a success this was

If using a serving spoon to scoop and drop the dumpling batter, dip the spoon into the simmering broth first, the scoop and drop. Repeat for each dumpling.

Love your recipes! Regards from Buenos Aires, Argentina.

This looks absolutely delicious! But there’s just me and my hubby, so making a big batch like this is out of the question. I guess I could make the broth and freeze both the broth and shredded chicken that I don’t use. I’m gonna try it. Thank you!
