Polish Chicken and Dumplings

This Polish chicken recipe is an old family recipe that originally used Polish egg noodles (kluski), and over the years I have modified it to use homemade dumplings.

Ingredients

DUMPLINGS

  • 4 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 cups water
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 (3 pound) whole chicken
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 stalk celery, with leaves
  • 1 tablespoon poultry seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon whole allspice
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon seasoning salt
  • 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup (Optional)

Directions

Step 1
Place chicken, onion, and celery in a large pot; fill the pot with water. Season with poultry seasoning, whole allspice, basil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, and seasoning salt; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer for approximately 2 hours, or until chicken is cooked.

Step 2
Remove chicken from broth and set chicken aside to cool; strain broth to remove seasonings and any bone. Return broth to the pan, stir in cream of chicken soup and continue simmering.

Step 3
In a medium bowl, stir together eggs, olive oil, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper with 2 cups water. Gradually add flour, and stir to form a thick dough.

Step 4
Using a large spoon and knife, scoop a spoonful of dough and cut small pieces into broth. Repeat with remaining dough. Stir, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes.

Step 5
Meanwhile, skin and debone chicken; cut meat into small pieces, add to broth and heat through.

Note

You can substitute cream of celery soup for cream of chicken soup, or thicken broth with a little flour.
