A family favorite from 'Hearts & Flours Cookbook: A Sampler of Recipes from the Heart of Texas.' I have entered the recipe as written in the book; however, it's too bland for me, so I quadruple the amount given for the spices. Ingredients:
1 chicken, cut in pieces |
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can chicken broth |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1/4 teaspoon celery salt |
1/4 teaspoon instant minced onion |
1/4 teaspoon sage |
1/4 teaspoon garlic salt |
1 cup milk |
1 egg |
1/4 cup shortening |
1 teaspoon salt |
2 1/2 cups flour |
1/8 cup butter |
1/4 cup flour |
10 1/2 ounces chicken broth |
Directions:
1. Stew chicken in a large pot, barely covered with water and chicken broth.
2. Add seasonings.
3. Make dumplings while chicken is cooking.
4. Combine all ingredients, adding enough flour to make a soft dough.
5. Roll out on floured board, cut dough in strips about 1X2 inches.
6. Remove chicken from from broth.
7. Combine ingredients for gravy together in a saucepan.
8. Heat until thickened and add to chicken liquid.
9. Drop in dumplings while boiling and cook covered 10 to 15 minutes.
10. Add chicken and serve with cranberry sauce.
