Gradually add the all-purpose flour to the chicken mixture, mixing until a soft dough forms. The dough should be slightly sticky but manageable.

Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Alternatively, if serving in broth, heat the chicken broth in a pot.

Using two spoons, carefully drop small portions of the dough into the boiling water or simmering broth. The dumplings should be about the size of a large tablespoon.
💡 نصائح احترافية: Dipping spoons in hot water before scooping the dough can prevent sticking. - 5
Cook the dumplings for about 10-15 minutes, or until they float to the surface and are cooked through. If cooking in broth, they will absorb some of the broth's flavor.
💡 نصائح احترافية: Do not overcrowd the pot; cook in batches if necessary. - 6
Remove the cooked dumplings with a slotted spoon. If serving as a side dish, you can lightly sauté them in butter for a slightly crispy exterior.
