Directions:

  1. Bring chicken, water to cover, garlic powder, thyme, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt; and 1/2 teaspoons pepper to a boil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer 1 hour. Remove chicken; reserve broth.
  2. Cool chicken 30 minutes; skin, bone, and shred chicken. Skim fat from broth. Add chicken, bouillon, and remaining 1 teaspoons salt and 1/4 teaspoons pepper to broth. Return to a simmer.
  3. Combine flour and poultry seasoning in a bowl. Cut in shortening and bacon drippings with a pastry blender until crumbly. Stir in milk. Turn dough out onto lightly floured surface. Roll into 1/8 thickness; cut into 1 pieces.
  4. Drop dumplings, a few at a time, into simmering broth, stirring gently. Cover and simmer, stirring often, 25 minutes.
