Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. In a large, heavy soup pot, place chicken, quartered onion, celery, garlic, parsley, thyme, sage, bay leaf,cloves, salt, peppercorns and water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat, cover and simmer until chicken falls from the bones, about 1 hour.
  2. Remove chicken to cool and drain. Strain the broth, pressing firmly on solids to extract the liquid. Let broth settle then skim off the excess fat. Reserve broth.
  3. Meanwhile, when chicken is cool enough to handle, tear the meat into bite-sized pieces and set aside; discard the skin and bones.
  4. Melt butter in a large pot and whisk in 2 tablespoons flour until smooth. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly for 3 minutes. Whisk reserved broth into butter and flour mixture and continue whisking vigorously until sauce comes to a boil and no lumps are left. Add chopped onion, diced carrots and celery and reserved chicken. Whisk in bouillon cubes and allow sauce to reduce by half.
  5. In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with 1/4 cup cold water. Whisk the slurry into the sauce and return to a boil to thicken. Taste and adjust seasoning.
  6. To make the dumplings: In a large bowl, quickly mix dumpling ingredients until just combined to make a loose dough. Thin with water if needed. Don't overmix. With a 1/4-cup measure, drop scant quarter-cupfuls of batter into the simmering liquid. Cover and cook (don't peek!) for about 15 to 20 minutes or until fluffy and cooked through.
  7. Stir in peas and chopped fresh herbs. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
