A southern classic with chicken, a savory, soupy sauce, and hearty dumplings.

Ingredients

4 quarts water
1 (10 3/4 oz) can condensed cream of celery or cream of chicken soup
1 teaspoon Paula Deen's House Seasoning
2 chicken bouillon cubes
2 bay leaves
1 large onion, chopped
3 ribs celery, chopped
1 2 1/2 lb chicken
2 cups all-purpose flour, mixed with 1 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup ice water
2 tablespoons corn starch, (optional)

Instructions

Cut up chicken, but do not remove skin. The skin and bones can be removed later. Place chicken, celery, onion, bay leaves, bouillon and House Seasoning in water and cook at a low boil for 30 to 45 minutes, until meat begins to fall off the bones. Remove skin and bones at this point, along with bay leaves. Return chicken to pan. Prepare dumplings and set them aside for a few minutes. Add cream soup to chicken and continue to boil. If desired, you can thicken the stock at little by mixing 2 tablespoons cornstarch with 1/4 cup of water and adding it to the stock. Drop dumplings into boiling stock. Never stir dumplings. Shake the pot gently in a circular motion to submerge dumplings in stock. Cook until the dumplings float and are no longer doughy, 3 to 4 minutes. Do not overcook.
