Ingredients:

Serving

2 cups flour
1 tbsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
2 eggs
3/4-1 cup buttermilk
2 tbsp butter
1 tbsp oil
1 tbsp flour
1/2 cup diced carrot
1/2 cup diced celery
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 bay leaves
1/4 cup flour
6 cups chicken stock
1/4 cup heavy cream
fresh ground black pepper, for garnish
chopped flat leaf parsley, for garnish
1 (3 lb) broiler-fryer chickens , shredded meat

Directions:

To prepare Supreme Sauce: In a Dutch oven, melt butter and heat oil over medium heat. Add carrot, celery, garlic, and bay leaves. Saute until the vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in the flour to make a roux. Continue to stir and cook for 2 minutes to coat the flour and remove the starchy taste. Slowly pour in the chicken stock, 1 cup at a time, stirring well after each addition.
Let sauce simmer until it is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 15 minutes. Stir in heavy cream.
Fold the reserved shredded chicken into the sauce and bring up to a simmer. Using 2 spoons, carefully drop heaping tablespoonfuls of the dumpling batter into the hot mixture. The dumplings should cover the top of the sauce, but should not be touching or crowded. Let the dumplings poach for 10 to 15 minutes until they are firm and puffy. Season with freshly cracked black pepper and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
To prepare the dumplings: sift dry ingredients together in a large bowl. In a small bowl, lightly beat the eggs and milk together; pour the liquid in the dry ingredients and gently fold. Mix just until the dough comes together, the batter should be thick and cake-like.
