1 teaspoon dried thyme cut into 8 pieces 4 cups chicken broth
1 large onion,thinly sliced 1 cup flour
4 carrots, cut into 1-inch 1 teaspoon baking powder chunks 1/2 teaspoon salt
2 celery ribs,sliced about 1/3 cup chopped parsley
1/4 inch thick
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 bay leaf,broken in half 6 to 7 tablespoons milk
Directions
1. Pull off and discard skin from chicken. Place chicken, onion, carrots, celery, bay leaf, thyme, and broth in a large pot. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer 25 minutes.
2. For dumplings, in a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir in parsley. Make a well in center and pour in oil and 6 table-spoons milk. Stir together to make soft biscuit dough. If dough seems too dry, stir in remaining 1 tablespoon milk.
3. Uncover pot. Dip a tablespoon into broth, then scoop up and drop dough to make 8 to 12 mounds on top of simmering chicken. Cover pot and simmer until a toothpick inserted into dumplings comes out clean, about 20 minutes.
4. Remove and discard bay leaf. Serve chicken and dumplings with broth in shallow soup bowls.
