You will taste the rich roasted flavor that tells you its right.

Chicken broth with chicken

Bring back to a simmering boil, add chicken.
While the chicken is doing its 30 minute simmer, you can start your dumplings.

Dumpling Recipe
1 1/2 Cups of white flour.
4 teaspoons of baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 Cup milk
2 eggs

Sift together flour, baking powder and salt.
Stop here and continue after adding chicken into your stock pot with the Knorr chicken concentrate. While your chicken is coming back to it’s simmer, make a hollow in the middle of the flour mix and add the eggs beaten into the milk. Stir briskly until all ingredients form into a ball. Using your floured fingers, carefully dump tablespoon size bits of dumpling mix into the simmering broth.
