Ingredients:

Quantity Ingredient
4 Chicken
2 Onions
1 Carrot
1 Celery
3 Creole seasonings
6 – 8 Dumpling strips
1 Can cream of celery soup
1 Can cream of chicken soup
2 cups Water
Salt and pepper, to taste
Louisiana hot sauce (optional)
Frozen peas

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Chicken:

    • Start by washing the whole chicken thoroughly.
  2. Cook the Chicken:

    • Place the chicken in a kettle of cold water along with one or two whole onions and 1 tsp of Creole seasonings.
    • Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer until the chicken is tender and fully cooked.
  3. Prepare the Broth:

    • Once the chicken is done, remove it from the kettle and set it aside on a plate.
    • Remove the onions from the broth and discard them.
    • Increase the heat to medium and whisk in two cans of cream of celery soup (or one can of cream of celery and one can of cream of chicken) until smooth.
  4. Add Water and Dumplings:

    • Pour in 2 cups of water and bring the mixture to a soft boil.
    • Drop the dumpling strips into the broth, stirring to prevent them from sticking. You can cut the dumpling strips in half if desired.
  5. Add Vegetables:

    • Add chopped carrots and celery to the broth.
    • Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure the dumplings don’t stick to the bottom.
  6. Prepare the Chicken:

    • While the dumplings are cooking, remove the chicken from the bone and shred it into bite-sized pieces.
  7. Combine Ingredients:

    • Once the dumplings are cooked through, stir in the shredded chicken.
    • Add frozen peas to the pot and let them heat through for about 8 minutes.
  8. Season and Serve:

    • Adjust the seasonings of the broth with salt, pepper, and Louisiana hot sauce if desired.
