Almost Scratch Chicken and Dumplings

Ingredients

• 6 to 8 cups [homemade chicken stock|http://www.meetpenny.com/2012/04/recipe-homemade-chicken-stock/], depending on how thick you prefer your broth to be
• 3 cups cooked chicken, coarsely chopped
• 2 1/4 cup [homemade baking mix|http://www.meetpenny.com/2013/01/homemade-baking-mix-for-biscuits-pancakes-more/]
• 2/3 cup milk
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

Bring chicken stock to a boil. Add the chicken, salt, and pepper. Return to a boil.

Meanwhile, mix the baking mix with milk. Turn out on to a lightly floured surface and knead just until blended. Roll out flat (to about 1/4 inch) and using a pizza cutter, slice into 1 inch strips about 2 inches long.

Drop dumplings into boiling broth one at a time, stirring as needed. Cover, reduce heat slightly, and boil for 15 to 20 minutes.
