Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 quart Double Chicken Broth Stock (See separate recipe)
- 2 c. Flour, All-purpose, sifted
- 3 tsp Baking pwdr
- 1 tsp Salt
- 2 med Large eggs
- 2/3 c. Lowfat milk
Directions
- Follow the recipe for poached chicken in Double Chicken Broth.
- See: Double Chicken Broth Stock recipe. In this recipe you leave the chicken in the pot and add in the dumplings, as described below, then serve the chicken and dumplings.* Directions for Dumplings* While the chicken is cooking in the other recipe, make up the dumplings, that will be added for the last 15 min of cooking time. Sift the dry ingredients together.
- Beat the Large eggs and lowfat milk together lightly and blend with the flour mix to make a fairly stiff dough. Form very small dumplings by taking a Tbsp. full of dough and rolling it into a ball shape. You may use the palm of your hand to do this. About 15 min before the end of the cooking time, remove the lid from the pot in that the chicken is cooking and drop the rounded Tbsp. of the dumpling dough over the surface of the liquid, spacing them a few inches apart as the dumplings puff up. Cover the pan, keeping the liquid at a simmer, and cook the dumplings for 15 min, till light and cooked through. Don't remove lid while dumplings are cooking. Serve with the poached chicken.
