Making chicken and dumplings doesn't have to be hard with a ton of complicated ingredients. Come along with me and learn this simple old fashioned recipe that has been passed down for many years in our family.
Recipe:
Soup
1-2 qts chicken broth
2 cups milk
2-3 cups shredded chicken
salt and pepper to taste
1 Tbsp butter
Dumplings
2 cups SELF RISING flour
1 tsp salt
4-5 Tbsp butter
1 cup milk
Combine all the soup ingredients. Bring to a rolling boil. While waiting for your mixture to boil, start making dumplings. Combine all dumpling ingredients in a separate bowl. Once soup mixture is boiling, drop dumpling mixture into soup, 1 Tbsp at a time until your pot is full or you are out of the dumpling mixture. DO NOT STIR. Cover and simmer until dumplings are fluffy and cooked through, approx. 5 min. Let cool and enjoy!

Hey y'all, I'm Meagan. My husband Andy and I grew up in rural NC and as newlyweds, decided we wanted something more than the typical American lifestyle. So we started growing our own food, I learned to can and so started this passion of food preservation and knowing where our food comes from.
Even though we grew up around this lifestyle, we still had to learn for ourselves, the ways of our ancestors before us. We now grow a huge portion of our food, including our own meat.
High society and MSM want you to think you don't have time to grow, preserve and cook your own food from scratch, but I am here to help you along the way. As a working mother of 2 on a busy little farm, there is time, we just have to prioritize it.
Through my weekly videos, I'll show you how to prepare easy meals cooked from scratch, tips on preserving your garden harvest and the occasional farm video. Live life on YOUR terms

I like fluffy dumplings too. I use bisquick and they are delicious. I start with a whole chicken and boil with onions, carrots and celery until it can be picked from the bone. I pull the chicken out, pick meat and put back into the pot right away. I leave all the vegetables. After meat is put back into pot I drop the dumplings. You are right it is the best meal ever.

That is how my Mom made dumplings and I grew up eating them that way. When I moved to Texas 35 years ago I encountered the rolled dumplings and thought folks were crazy...now I make the rolled ones. Lol one of my fav meals-either way I make dumplings 😂

This reminds me of my old family recipe for the same thing! YUM!! My family originally came from the Ohio valley area and many of the recipes have some of the Quaker and Amish influences as well. I just LOVE remaking recipes from those old times knowing that I am making good healthy food based on recipes from 100 plus years ago.

Those chicken and dumplings look absolutely delicious. I love chicken and dumplings. ❤ I like them either way flat or dropped but those look good. 😋

I stumbled upon this method years ago when I was trying to make a dumpling that was fluffy in the middle instead of being a slicker. What I discovered: wet on the outside gives fluffy inside. I splash a little buttermilk down the side of my mixing bowl and then roll my spoon-sized ball of dough around in it. It works! I cook mine for about 15 minutes. Half-way through, I'll push them down a bit to get liquid over the tops. Great video! Thank you.

Hi ya Meagan, this recipe for dumplins' is almost the same as the recipe that mom handed down that she got from her mom and granny got from either her mom or her mother in law. I'm sure they used lard before butter, mom changed it to vegetable oil and i use canola oil. 2 C of flour 1 TBS baking powder 1 Tsp salt i/4 C canola oil 1 C milk of your choosin' mix till just blended and drop by tablespoon full into boiling chicken stock with shredded chicken. I cheat and use a rotisserie whole chicken, with mix veggies. lower temp to a good simmer for about 12 minutes and don't take the lid off till done. More than once i got scolded for taking a peak. Mom said it would make the dumplin's tough. Regards; Phil A.

I’m going to get your cookbook so I can make your delicious looking chicken and dumplings. I haven’t had those for a long time. My grandpa in Lincoln, Illinois, made them like you. His mom was from Flippin’ Kentucky. Nuts love seeing Maggie, she so full of fun. I especially like the way she helps in the kitchen. You and your family is such a blessing! Thanks for sharing your lives on your homestead with us!❤

Chicken and dumplings is something I've never made or ate, but I really want to try. I make noodles, not homemade though lol. That's a skill I need to work on. My mom and grandma were great at making noodles and I don't want that art to die with me.

I love how you keep it real, with cokes on the floor and a well used pot, like cooking with a good friend. I’ve never made this with milk in the broth, looks great, have to give this a try. Weather here in Indiana has really cooled off and I have been hungry for something like this. Guess this might just be what’s for dinner. 🌟

It's always better to put your chicken in after the dumplins have cooked all the way thru ... that way the chicken does'nt get stuck in the dumplin and ,they have more room to cook !

To make flour self rising, just add baking powder? Think that's right.

It’s something like that, but I’ve tried with all purpose and soda and just can’t get them quite like I want them, so I just use the self rising. Thanks for watching, God Bless my friend 🙏

There are recipes on line, I think it has baking soda or powder and salt. I don’t remember which or how much.
