Ahhhh....Chicken and Dumplings

It's hard to explain.....

It's a phenomenon.....

It's Mom Shirley's CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS.

Follow me thru the process and imagine the possibilities.

STEP 1-Put Dumplings in Giant Yellow Bowl.



STEP 2-Fry Dumplings in Frying Pan circa 1970.
(Note-Must use massive amounts of butter in frying pan).
(Double Note-James broke the spatula in this picture, he was banned from chicken and dumplings for 6 months)




STEP 3-Simmer Chicken in Chicken Gravy
(Note-This IS Shirley's secret...often duplicated NEVER replicated).



STEP 4-Set cooked dumplings and chicken in chicken gravy on counter.



STEP 5-Take shot of Root Beer Home Brew to celebrate the completion of Chicken and Dumplings (not to mention Dad's birthday).



STEP 6-Dish up heaping plate of Chicken and Dumplings (with a Ham chaser).



STEP 7-Crush the Chicken and Dumplings



STEP 8-REPEAT Steps 6 and 7
