&amp;amp;amp;lt;br /&amp;amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;lt;br /&amp;amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;<br /><br />

Ingredients Chicken: One whole, cut into pieces

Water: 4 cups

Celery: 3 stalks, sliced

Carrot: 1, peeled and sliced

Onion: ½ cup, chopped

Pepper: ¼ tablespoon

Flour: 1/3 cup

Milk: 1 cup

Parsley: 2 teaspoons, minced

For Biscuit dumplings:

Crisco: ¼ cups

Self-rising flour: 2 cups

Milk: 1/3 cup Method Step 1 For the dumplings, cut the Crisco into the flour, followed by the milk and mix thoroughly. When it gets to a dense consistency, drop a small spoonful of it into boiling water and cook for 25 minutes on low heat with the lid on. When done, take it out and set it aside. Step 2 Put together the water, the chicken, celery, carrots, onion, pepper and salt into a big pot and cook. Put it on simmer for at least two and a half hours. Step 3 When the chicken is done, set it aside and add water to the broth to make at least four cups of it. Step 4 Mix the flour and the milk in a separate bowl. Step 5 Add the broth into a pan and add the milk and flour combination. Cook this over low heat, until it achieves a thick, gravy-like consistency. Do not forget to keep stirring. Step 6 After five minutes, add in the chicken. Step 7 Pour it into a bowl and add the dumplings into it. Serve with a sprinkling of a pinch of parsley while it is still hot.
