Classic Chicken and Dumplings is a comforting and hearty dish perfect for cold days. Tender chicken simmered in a flavorful broth with vegetables and topped with fluffy dumplings.

Ingredients: 1 whole chicken, cut into pieces. 2 cups all-purpose flour. 1/2 cup milk. 2 eggs. 2 carrots, diced. 2 celery stalks, diced. 1 onion, diced. 4 cups chicken broth. 1/2 cup heavy cream. Salt and pepper to taste. Fresh parsley for garnish.

Instructions: In a bowl, mix flour, milk, and eggs to form a dough for dumplings. Roll out the dough and cut into small squares. In a large pot, bring chicken broth to a boil. Add chicken pieces, carrots, celery, and onion. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes or until chicken is cooked through. Remove chicken pieces from the pot and shred the meat. Return shredded chicken to the pot. Drop dumpling squares into the simmering broth. Cover and cook for 10-15 minutes until dumplings are cooked through.
