CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP

Steps:

• Place a soup pot over medium heat and coat with the oil. Add the onion, garlic, carrots, celery, thyme and bay leaf. Cook and stir for about 6 minutes, until the vegetables are softened but not browned. Pour in the chicken stock and bring the liquid to a boil. Add the noodles and simmer for 5 minutes until tender. Fold in the chicken, and continue to simmer for another couple of minutes to heat through; season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving.
• Place the chicken and vegetables in a large stockpot over medium heat. Pour in only enough cold water to cover (about 3 quarts); too much will make the broth taste weak. Toss in the thyme, bay leaves, and peppercorns, and allow it to slowly come to a boil. Lower the heat to medium-low and gently simmer for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, partially covered, until the chicken is done. As it cooks, skim any impurities that rise to the surface; add a little more water if necessary to keep the chicken covered while simmering.
• Carefully remove the chicken to a cutting board. When its cool enough to handle, discard the skin and bones; hand-shred the meat into a storage container.
• Carefully strain the stock through a fine sieve into another pot to remove the vegetable solids. Use the stock immediately or if you plan on storing it, place the pot in a sink full of ice water and stir to cool down the stock. Cover and refrigerate for up to one week or freeze.

CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP AND DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• Begin heating your soup combined with the water in a LARGE pot with a tight fitting lid.
• Combine your dry ingredients in a medium sized mixing bowl.
• Stir lightly to mix, being careful not to lose any over the side.
• Create a hollow in the middle of your dry ingredients.
• Add your milk to the hollow.
• Add your oil to the milk.
• Using a fork, mix the ingredients until a sticky dough is formed.
• Do not overmix.
• When your soup is boiling, quickly add spoonfuls of the dough until the entire bowlful is in the pot. Make sure to move quickly - the faster you get them in, the fluffier they'll be.
• Quickly cover the pot with the tight fitting lid.
• Reduce the heat to medium and cook for 10 minutes.
• NEVER lift the lid before 10 minutes has passed or you will have dense dumplings instead of light, fluffy ones.
• After 10 minutes, remove from heat and serve.
• Dumplings will be very hot.

CHICKEN DUMPLING SOUP

Steps:

• In a small amount of cooking oil sweat the onion, carrots and celery. Add chicken, broth, green beans, barley, celery salt, parsley and bay leaves. Simmer until the barley is tender, about 30 minutes.
• Bring the milk and butter to a boil, add salt and nutmeg. Remove from heat and immediately add flour stirring until dough leaves the sides of the pan. Incorporate the eggs, 1 at a time, forming a sticky dough.
• Season the soup, to taste, with salt and pepper. Add spoon sized balls of dumpling dough and simmer until dumplings rise.

CHICKEN AND DUMPLING SOUP

Steps:

• For the soup stock: Combine the chicken, peppercorns, bay leaves, garlic, thyme, carrot chunks, celery chunks, quartered onion, parsnip chunks, 3 sprigs dill and 3 sprigs parsley in a large pot. Add cold water to cover by 2 inches (about 5 quarts). Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Simmer, uncovered, until the chicken is very tender, for at least 1 1/2 hours (or up to 2 hours if you have the time. The longer the better!) Add more water, as needed, skimming off scum (there won't be much) and, if desired, some fat.
• Carefully strain the stock, discarding everything except for the chicken. (You should have 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 quarts of stock.) Set the chicken aside to cool briefly while you put together the rest of the soup. Return the strained stock to the pot and bring it to a simmer. Add the sliced carrot, sliced celery, chopped onion, sliced parsnip, chopped dill, chopped parsley and the salt. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Simmer, covered, for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, prepare the dumplings: In a small saucepan, bring the butter and 3/4 cup water to a boil. Remove from the heat and stir in the flour. Let cool for a few minutes so it's not so hot that it will cook the eggs, then whisk in the salt, sugar, nutmeg and the eggs, one at a time, until incorporated into a slightly lumpy thick batter. (It'll take a little work to whisk in the eggs.)
• Drop heaping teaspoons of the dumpling mixture into the simmering soup, then cover and cook until the vegetables are tender and the dumplings are cooked through; begin checking for doneness at 15 minutes.
• Pull the chicken meat off the bones and chop into bite-sized pieces. Season it with salt, then add it to the soup along with the ground black pepper. Taste and add more salt as needed. This is important: The amount of salt in a chicken soup can mean the difference between unappetizing chicken tea and the elixir of bubble love that it should be. So don't skip this step, and don't rush it, either. Taste your soup, and if it doesn't make you smile reflexively, add more salt, about a 1/2 teaspoon of it, and give it a few good stirs so it can dissolve. Taste and repeat, as needed, until it tastes good.
• Serve, garnishing with fresh parsley.

EASY SLOW COOKER CHICKEN AND DUMPLING SOUP

• Pour in peas and carrots and cook on Low until soft, 1 to 2 hours more.
• Roll out the biscuit dough thin and flat. Cut into quarters or strips, then cut in half. Add dough pieces to the slow cooker and stir to make sure they are submerged in the liquid. Cook for another 1 to 2 hours on Low.

CHICKEN, VEGGIE, NOODLE, AND DUMPLING SOUP WITH FLAVOR

Steps:

• Place chicken in 7 Quart pot fill with water, leaving about an inch from the top of the pot (don't want it to over flow while it cooks.).
• Add the ingredients from the Chicken and Seasoning Section immediately after you have done the above step. NOTE: I like to crush up the parsley flakes and oregano in my hand over the pot after I've measured it. You don't have to, it's just something that I did. As for the garlic clove, either use a garlic press or mince finely as it will not be removed from the soup. This is so that you will have flavorful chicken and will be the start of the tasty broth.
• Cook on a medium heat for at least an hour and a half to two hours, especially if frozen. I choose to use the chicken with skin and the one bone because it always seems to come out most tender and give the broth extra flavor. But if you use boneless skinless thighs or breasts that's entirely up to you, but I can't guarantee that it will turn out the same. At this time you want to prepare your carrots and slice them up so that you can just dump them in the pot in the next step to save you some time.
• When the chicken has been cooked through, using tongs carefully remove the chicken and set on a plate. Then fish out the bay leaves, it will be easier to this now rather than later when you have lots of other goodies in your pot. And dump in the sliced baby carrots now as they are more of a hard vegetable and will take probably the most time to cook.
• Using tongs and a knife set a piece of chicken on your cutting board and carefully remove the skin, bone, and any cartilage from the chicken. You want to do this while it's still hot as you're going to toss it back into the pot and don't want it to cool down too much.
• Chop into big chunks and put back in the soup pot, you don't want them to be too small or they will fall apart and shred. I like my soups hearty so I do big chunks, but make this soup as you desire.
• Wash your cutting board and knife, then wash (peel if you like), quarter and chop potatoes into bite size pieces not too thick and not too thin. Put into pot and do the same to your squash, you can do half of a yellow one and half of a green one if you want. Pick whatever veggies you want and keep in mind that if they're soft veggies like squash they will cook quickly and will need to be added to the end of the soup rather than at the beginning.
• If you choose to put pasta in I would do this immediately after the last veggie is tossed in to help it cook up, I would probably only put half a bag of the pasta in as it swells up and will steal a lot of the broth. Or you could cook it in another pot and add it to the soup when it is cooked. It's up to you. I cooked mine with my soup and it stole all of the broth not leaving me very much broth. It was still tasty though and no one cared that the broth was missing.
• If you chose to add the pasta, once you have added it to your soup or started it in a different pot I would recommend getting the dumpling mixture ready.
• I doubled my mom's dumpling recipe as there never seems to be enough to go around. It makes around 12 -15 dumplings. Feel free to scale back if that's too much. Simply take all of the ingredients for the dumplings and put in a bowl and mix throughly. You should have a tacky ball of dough. If it's too dry either add a splash of milk, or more of the broth from the soup.
• Gently drop golf ball size or slightly larger pieces of tacky dough into the soup to allow to cook. They cook for about 5 to 10 minutes before completely done. DO NOT cover with a lid while they are cooking or you'll have a very moist looking dumpling which for me was always harder to tell if it was cooked all the way or not. Better to leave uncovered. When the dumplings are cooked turn off the flame and serve with your favorite crackers.
• NOTE: I used Casarecce Pasta which is not recognized by this site. It's a partially rolled long pasta pieces. But use whatever pasta that you prefer for this type of soup or none at all if you wish.

Using a knife or a pizza cutter, slice dough into long strips, gently pick up strips and lay them on a dish towel to dry. After about 15-20 minutes, cut the strips into desired lengths. I prefer about 1 1/2-2 inches long. Place the noodles into the simmering stock. Cover and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until noodles are done. Add the peas, and cook an addition 5-10 minutes. If you desire a thicker soup, dissolve the 2 Tbsp cornstarch in warm water, and stir in to soup. Cook an additional 5 minutes.
