  5. Return the chicken meat to the pot.
  6. Keep warm over low heat.
  7. Dumplings:.
  8. Mix the flour with the salt and mound together in a mixing bowl.
  9. Beginning at the center of the mound, drizzle a small amount of ice water over the flour.
  10. Using your fingers, and moving from the center to the sides of the bowl, gradually incorporate about 3/4 cup of ice water.
  11. Knead the dough and form it into ball.
  12. Dust a good amount of flour onto a clean work surface.
  13. Roll out the dough (it will be firm), working from center to 1/8-inch thick.
  14. Let the dough relax for several minutes.
  15. Add the cream of celery soup to the pot with the chicken and simmer gently over medium-low heat.
  16. Cut the dough into 1-inch pieces.
  17. Pull a piece in half and drop the halves into the simmering soup. Repeat.
  18. Do not stir the chicken once the dumplings have been added.
  19. Gently move the pot in a circular motion so the dumplings become submerged and cook evenly.
  20. Cook until the dumplings float and are no longer doughy, 3 to 4 minutes.
  21. To serve, ladle chicken, gravy, and dumplings into warm bowls.
  22. Paula's Note: If the chicken stew is too thin it can be thickened before the dumplings are added.
  23. Simply mix together 2 tablespoons cornstarch and 1/4 cup of water then whisk this mixture into the stew.
