Do <strong>not overmix<\/strong> \u2014 the dough should be slightly sticky and soft.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Prepare the Chicken Broth:<\/strong><br \/>\nHave your simmering chicken stew, soup, or broth ready. The broth should be hot but not at a rolling boil.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Shape the Dumplings:<\/strong><br \/>\nUsing a spoon or your fingers, drop small spoonfuls (about 1\u20132 tablespoons each) of dough onto the simmering broth.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cook the Dumplings:<\/strong><br \/>\nCover the pot with a lid and simmer gently for <strong>12\u201315 minutes<\/strong>.
