• 8 Cups of rich and soul-warming chicken broth

Instructions

• 1 In a large pot, simmer the chicken pieces in the rich chicken broth until they
  are tender and cooked through. This may take about 45-60 minutes.
• 2 Once cooked, shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces and return it to the
  simmering broth. Keep the pot on low heat to maintain warmth.
• 3 In a mixing bowl, combine the finely milled all-purpose flour, hand-harvested
  sea salt, freshly ground black pepper, dried thyme, dried sage, garlic powder,
  and onion powder.
• 4 Pour in the tangy buttermilk and melted premium butter into the dry ingredients.
  Mix gently until just combined. Be cautious not to overmix; the dough should be
  soft and slightly sticky.
• 5 Drop spoonfuls of the dumpling dough into the simmering broth and chicken. Cover
  the pot and let the dumplings cook for 10-15 minutes until they are cooked
  through and fluffy.
• 6 Season the broth and dumplings with additional salt and pepper if needed.
  Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the top for a burst of herbal brightness.
• 7 Ladle the warm and comforting chicken and dumplings into bowls. The aromatic
  broth, tender chicken, and fluffy dumplings create a delightful symphony of
  flavors.
