CROCK POT CHICKEN AND TORTILLA DUMPLINGS RECIPE
Steps:
- Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels.
- Peel and chop the carrot. Chop the celery. Peel and chop the onion.
- In the slow cooker, combine the chicken, vegetables, and the chicken stock and bouillon. Cook on low 5 to 7 hours, or until the chicken is cooked through. Remove the chicken from the broth and set aside.
- Skim off some of the fat, if desired, and then transfer the broth mixture to a large saucepan. Place the saucepan over high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low or medium-low to maintain a gentle boil.
- While the broth heats, prepare the chicken. Remove the meat from the bones. Discard the bones and skin and chop the chicken; return it to the gently boiling broth.
- Cut the flour tortillas in half and then cut the halves crosswise into strips about 1 inch in width. Drop the strips into the broth and boil gently for 15 to 20 minutes. Stir the mixture occasionally.
- If a thicker broth is desired, combine 2 tablespoons of cornstarch (or flour) with just enough cold water to form a smooth paste; stir until thoroughly blended and smooth. Add the mixture to the broth and continue to cook until thickened.
- Taste the broth and season with salt and pepper, as needed.

CHICKEN AND FLOUR TORTILLA DUMPLINGS
These taste just like the one's your grandmother use to make. They are so thin and perfect. Unless you tell I promise nobody will ever know they are flour tortilla's. If you want to make for a really big crowd, follow the same instructions just use a 6 qt pot and an additional small pack of 8.5 oz shells. Also you can omit the chicken if you want and use canned chicken broth or bouillon cubes.

CHICKEN TORTILLA DUMPLING SOUP

Steps:
- Place the chicken, onions half the celery, salt, pepper and thyme. Cover with water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer (covered) for 1 hour.
- Take the chicken out of the pot and remove the meat from the bones (reserve). Place bones back in the pot and continue cooking for 1 hour longer.
- Strain broth and return to pot with remaining celery and carrots. Cook 20-30 minutes longer.
- Cut the flour tortillas in 1-inch wide strips; then cut strips into 3 or 4 pieces. Add tortilla pieces and chicken to the boiling broth and simmer for 5 minutes longer. Soup may be served with additional flour tortillas which have been warmed in the oven.
- Note: AlabamaNeeNee, of the TOHBB, suggests using the above recipe as basis for her chicken and dumplings. She does it this way: In step 3, when the vegetables are tender, sprinkle in about 3 tablespoons of flour, a little at a time, stirring constantly so broth will thicken slightly. She suggests you may wish to add a can of cream of chicken soup at this point if the flavor of the soup needs enhancing. Continue with the recipe.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, high-quality chicken, vegetables, and spices will make a big difference in the flavor of your dumplings.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make it tough. Mix it just until it comes together, then let it rest for a few minutes before rolling it out.
- Roll out the dough thinly: The thinner the dough, the more delicate your dumplings will be. Aim for a thickness of about 1/8 inch.
- Fill the dumplings generously: Don't be shy about filling your dumplings with chicken, vegetables, and spices. The more filling, the better!
- Cook the dumplings in a flavorful broth: The broth you use to cook the dumplings will add flavor to them. Use a broth that is packed with vegetables, herbs, and spices.
- Serve the dumplings hot: Dumplings are best served hot, straight out of the pot. Serve them with your favorite dipping sauce.
