Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a large kettle or Dutch oven, combine the chicken, 3 cups water, celery, carrots, onion, salt, pepper, and allspice.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
  3. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 2 hours, or until the chicken is tender and cooked through.
  4. While the chicken simmers, prepare the dumpling dough: In a small bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 3/4 teaspoon dry mustard, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  5. Gradually stir 3/4 cup tomato juice into the dry ingredients until a soft dough forms.
  6. Once the chicken is tender, in a small separate bowl, combine 1/2 cup cold water and 2 tablespoons flour; mix well to create a slurry.
  7. Stir the flour slurry into the chicken mixture to thicken the gravy.
  8. Drop the dumpling dough in rounded teaspoons over the simmering chicken mixture.
  9. Cover tightly and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the dumplings are fluffy and cooked through. Do not lift the lid during this time.
  10. Serve hot, ensuring each portion has both chicken and dumplings.
