2-3 lbs boneless chicken
2 qt water
1 tbsp chicken bouillon granules
2 cups flour
2 tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
¼ cup butter

Instructions

Place chicken, and granules in stew pot with 2 qt water. Bring to a boil and then simmer for about an hour, until the chicken is tender.

Remove the chicken from the broth, and cut up chicken into bite sized pieces
.
To make dumplings – combine flour, baking powder and salt. Cut in butter with pastry blender or fork until mix until it crumbles and resembles coarse crumbs. Add ¾ of cup of the chicken broth.

Mix well and turn out on to floured board to knead. Roll out to ½ inch thickness, and cut into squares.

Bring the broth to a boil, and drop the dough in, one square at a time. Stir to keep the squares separated while they cook. Reduce to low, cook 10 minutes. Add chicken to the pot, reheat and serve.
