I made this today for my Sunday dinner for myself because my daughter refuse to eat this with me. I was trying to capture the taste back when my Big-ma was alive and would make this. This recipe didn't do it for me at all. The seasonings were on point and great so I will keep that part but the dumplings were not what I was looking for. Perhaps I didn't roll them out as thin as needed to be because I had some pieces that were very thin and tasted a lot better than the thicker ones. I'm going to try it again one day but making the dumplings as thin as I can get them. Mines remind me of those old fashioned egg noodles you can buy at the store in the freezer section.

Yummmmmm so perfect on a rainy Washington day! Really brought the sun into my tummy! The perfect comfort food recipe...added extra thyme and substituted bay for basil and juniper berries...dumplings needed about 2 spoons more of water and I slightly balled them by giving them a pinch...I opted to just leave the onion in and it added to the texture for sure. Served with piping hot buttermilk biscuits. A hit and quite easy!

That was very good!! Whole family liked it. I did make a few small changes. I added some xtra chicken broth, and I also used rosemary, celery salt, and a little sage.

A wonderful recipe.The only thing I would change is maybe adding celery,carrots,or peas next time,and I thickened the broth by adding flour.Great flavor,and the lemon enhances this dish.I will be making this dish for years to come.

I made this last night for my housemates and it was quite tasty! The dumplings I found to be a little tasteless however this was the first time I've ever had chicken and dumplings so I'm not sure if that's how they're supposed to be. I added carrots, potatoes and celery, skipped the lemon, added rosemary, garlic, pepper.

This was sooo yummy! Everyone loved it. The only changes I made were, omit lemon and add chicken bullion granules to the water to make a tasty broth, and use cold water and cornstarch to thicken to desired consistency.
