this recipe is more of how much you wanna make instead of measurements...

ingredients
boneless/skinless ck breasts
frozed fresh spinach
moz. slices
moz. shredded ch (you can use a dif kind i just like moz.)
milk (you can also use 1/2 and 1/2 if you have that in hand)
butter (optional for more flavor)
salt/pepper/garlic powder/onion powder (to taste)

-butterfly ck breasts
-cook spinach and drain as much water out as possible
-in small pot put spinach as much cheese as you want, a splash of milk (enough to make it creamy) and butter if want a little more flavorful
-take one slice of moz. ch. slice and cut in half and put on top and bottom of open ck
-stuff ck with spinach mixture
-close ck (if have problems keeping it closed you can take some toothpicks that were soaked for a min in water thru ck to help it out)
-season ck with salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder to taste
-bake on 350 until ck is cooked all the way through probably around 30-45 min pending oven using and thickness of ck breasts.

you can also do this with pork chops (preferably boneless) however i like the chicken better!

Southern Chicken N Dumplins

Southern Chicken N Dumplins
little time consuming but well worth it!
(I make this in an 8 qt pot but can be easily adjusted)

Ingredients

2-3 spilt chicken breasts
family size cream of chicken, or 2 smaller ones
5 chicken boulion cubes
1 stick real butter
1/2 gal for enough milk to add to the pot, about 3 cups.
salt and pepper to taste

5 cups flour
2.5 teaspoons salt
6 tablespoons shortening
5 eggs


In a stock pot fill with 1/2 water and boil chicken until done seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.

Once done remove chicken and strain homemade broth. DO NOT DUMP THE BROTH! Return to pot and add the boulion cubes and cream of chicken. Once dissolved taste to make sure it is seasoned with salt enough. Bring to medium boil on high-medium heat.

While coming to a boil mix in seperate bowl flour and salt. Cut shortening into flour. Make a well add eggs. Slightly beat them in the well and then combine. It should be crumbly now. Add (with these amounts) about 2 ladles of the boiling broth. It will form a dough ball, don't add too much liquid though or it will be too sticky- go slow!

With broth mixture boiling, working with a handful of dough at a time roll (use lots of flour!) dough until it is 1/4" thin or as thin as you can get. The thinner the better. Cut into squares, strips, or just rip apart into dumplin size pieces and add the broth. Keep going until all is done, pushing dumplins down so they get cooked evenly. Add milk if it starts getting crowded with dumplins.

When done add milk to almost reach the top of pot, about 1 inch from the top. Add stick of butter and deboned chicken. Simmer on low-medium for another 1/2 hour or until dumplins are tender and stir frequently so they won't stick!!

-Feeds my family of 6 for two meals. Do not freeze though. Not very good after 3 days either, just my opinion. to reheat add a little extra liquid (milk or broth) If necessary.

Oh to adjust recipe, do the broth the same but use less boulion, and only one sm. can cream of chicken.

For dumplins the recipe for one batch is:
1 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon shortening
1 egg
enough liquid to make dough ball

(I make 5 batches for mine)

**I got this recipe today from a friend...it sounds great and im gonna fix it real soon!

2-EZ Chicken Broccoli Teriyaki
