Chicken & Dumplings (stovetop)

boil a whole chicken & debone then put back in stock that you've created from boiling, or do it the easier way and use some boneless skinless breasts, shred slightly with a fork after boiling... add to boiling chicken stock.

Dumplings:
2 cups all purpose flour
1 tsp salt
3 heaping tsp crisco
2 eggs
cold water (eye this, about 1/4 cup)

mix these together in order, only add enough water for proper dough-like consistancy (like playdough)

roll out dumplings & cut & drop in broth

season to taste. Cook until tender.
I usually simmer this most of the day, it's even better the next day if you want to make this ahead.
