better than cracker barrel® chicken 'n dumplings
  • 1 whole chicken
  • 1 pinch salt
  • water to cover
  • 1 lemon, halved
  • 2 stalks celery, sliced
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 2 carrots, sliced, or more to taste
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste


  1. Place chicken and 1 pinch salt in a large pot; cover with water. Bring to a boil, skimming any scum off the surface with a slotted spoon. Add lemon, celery, onion, and carrots. Simmer broth over medium heat until chicken starts to fall off the bone, about 1 hour.
  2. Discard lemon. Remove chicken from the pot; let cool.
  3. Place flour, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Make a well in the center. Ladle in 2 to 3 scoops of hot broth. Mix in flour with a spoon until dough comes together into a ball.
  4. Turn dough out onto a floured surface. Knead carefully until smooth. Roll out into a large rectangle; cut into small rectangular dumplings.
  5. Drop dumplings one at a time into the simmering broth. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 30 minutes.
  6. Bone chicken and chop into pieces. Add to the pot; cook until heated through, about 5 minutes.
