Step 1

Add the chicken broth and water to a large stock pot.  Bring to a boil over high heat.

Step 2

Then add the chicken breasts and reduce the heat to medium.  Boil uncovered until the chicken is cooked through.

Step 3

While the chicken is cooking, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt together in a mixing bowl.  Then add in the butter with a fork or a pastry blender until incorporated.  Stir in the milk until a dough is formed.

Step 4

Flour out a work surface.  Roll the dough out flat with a rolling pin.  Slice with a pizza cutter or a knife into similar size squares.

Step 5

Remove the chicken from the pot (make sure it’s cooked through) and set aside.

Step 6

Drop the dumplings into the pot, one at a time, to keep the dumplings from sticking to each other.  Cook for 15-20 minutes until the dumplings float and a toothpick inserted into the dumplings comes out clean.

Step 7

While the dumplings are cooking, shred the chicken and return it back to the pot.

Step 8

Season the chicken and dumplings with more salt and pepper if needed.  Then serve warm and enjoy!
