Place the chicken in a large lidded non-stick pot and add the broth, water, celery, carrot, 1/2 tsp. of the salt, parsley and onion flakes. Bring to a boil and cook chicken until done, about 20 minutes. Remove the chicken pieces to a plate to cool while making the dumplings.
Dumplings:
In a medium mixing bowl add flour, baking powder, 1 tsp salt. Cut in butter and add 1/2 cup of milk to make a stiff dough. On a floured surface (just dust a cutting board or cookie sheet with a small amount of flour) roll out the dough, adding flour as needed, a little bit at a time, to keep the dough from sticking to the work surface or the rolling pin. Working with half of the dough at a time, roll out to 1/8 inch thick or a little thinner and cut into one inch squares. I like to use a pizza cutter to cut them because it's fun and kids love to help with this part. :) While you are rolling out and cutting the dumplings, add one cup of milk to the liquid left in the pot and bring it to a low boil. De bone the chicken and discard the skin and bones, and cut into bite sized pieces.
Drop the dumplings one at a time into the boiling broth mixture and simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to keep them from sticking together or to the pan. Taste to test for doneness. The dumplings should puff up as they cook. Add the pieces of chicken to the pot, cover and continue cooking for five or ten minutes longer. Taste and season to taste with salt and pepper.
You can use as much chicken as you like, white or dark meat or both. We like the dumplings and don't care for a lot of chicken with them.
