Chicken & Dumplings

This is a recipe that Clint's Mamaw made. She would make a huge batch and then take them to Johnie Mac and Rita's and everyone would come and eat them. They are very good! Better than Cracker Barrell's.

Chicken:
Bring chicken and 2 chicken cubes to a boil.
Add 1 or more tsp. of salt.
Then simmer for about 30 minutes with lid on.
Take chicken out and let broth simmer for a while.

Dumplings:

2 tsp. of salt
