Southern-Style Chicken and Dumplings
Ingredients
  • subheading: Chicken:
  • 1 large fryer chicken (4 to 5 lbs.), neck and gizzards removed
  • 1 large onion, peeled and cut in half
  • 3 carrots, cut into large pieces
  • 3 stalks of celery, cut into large pieces
  • Kosher salt, to taste
  • Pepper, to taste
  • subheading: Dumplings:
  • 3 cups cake flour
  • ¾ tsp. baking soda
  • ¾ tsp. salt
  • 4 ½ tbsp. shortening*
  • 1 cup milk
  •  
  • note: I imagine you could use butter, but I haven’t tried it. I’ve never been a fan of shortening, but I stuck to the recipe because I didn’t want to mess with its “right”-ness. You know Cracker Barrel and Southern grandmas aren’t afraid of using shortening.
