Ingredients
-
1 (2 to 3 pound) whole chicken
-
2 cups all-purpose flour
-
1 teaspoon baking powder
-
1 cup hot chicken broth
-
1 egg
Directions
-
Cover chicken with salted water in a large stockpot or Dutch oven; simmer until cooked through and tender, remove chicken from pot and remove meat from bones. Keep chicken warm while making the dumplings.
-
To make the dumplings: Sift about 2 cups of flour and 1 teaspoon baking powder into a large mixing bowl. Make a well in the flour mixture; pour in 1 cup of hot chicken broth, mixing first with a fork, then with your fingers. Add the egg and mix well again.
-
Knead the dough for a few seconds on a floured board. Separate the dough into 4 or 5 parts and roll as thin as possible. Cut into 1 1/2 or 2 inch wide pieces. Break these into 2 inch long strips. Drop into boiling chicken broth and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes. Serve with previously prepared chicken.
