Chicken and Fluffy Dumplings image

This is an old-fashioned northern style recipe. Very homemade, very easy and very tasty. I can't remember where I got it, but I believe it was from one of those little cookbooks you pick up in the checkout line at the grocery store.

This recipe is a bit time-consuming, but it's worth it. The dumplings are amazing and the chicken is fall-off-the-bone tender.

I'm not a huge fan of dumplings, but I really enjoyed these. They were light and fluffy, and they didn't have that heavy, doughy texture that I usually associate with dumplings.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I had some rotisserie chicken that I needed to use up, and this was the perfect recipe. The dumplings were so good that I could have eaten them all by themselves.
