Chicken and Dumplings

4 chicken breasts or whatever kind of chicken you want (bone and skin after they are cooked is easiest)
Completely cover chicken with water and bring to a boil. Simmer until chicken is cooked.
Remove chicken and cut into big chunks.
Add chicken soup base (powder or liquid) to boiling chicken broth.
Thicken broth (thinner than gravy), add chicken.

Dumplings:
Mix
2 cup flour
4 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
Stir in 1 and 1/2 cups of milk

Drop by spoonfuls into simmering chicken and broth. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes without lifting the lid (very important)

Serve immediately (makes 4 large portions)
