(From Our January 2023 Newsletter - Grandma C.)
Ingredients
- 2½ to 3 cups cooked chicken
- 8 cups chicken broth
- 2 cups flour
- 2 tbsp butter
- ½ cup fresh shredded carrots
- ½ tsp parsley flakes
- ½ tsp garlic salt
- ½ tsp baking powder
- 1 cup milk
- Salt & Pepper to taste
Put chicken broth, garlic salt, pepper, shredded carrots and parsley flakes into a large pot and bring to a boil.
While the broth is coming to a boil, place flour, baking powder. seasonings and salt into a large mixing bowl.
Cut the butter into the flour mixture with a fork, then add the milk, mixing until the dough forms a ball.
Roll out the dough on a heavily floured surface using a floured rolling pin. Roll it thin, then cut it into 2” squares with a pizza roller.
Use a floured spatula to lift them from the cutting surface and drop them into the broth one at a time. Boil for approximately 15 — 20 minutes.
Add the cooked chicken to the pot, reduce heat to medium and simmer for 1 — 2 minutes, remove from heat and let it sit for a couple of minutes to thicken, then serve!
