MMMMM-------------------------DUMPLINGS------------------------------
  1 1/3 c  A-P flour
      2 ts Baking powder
    3/4 ts Salt
    2/3 c  Milk
      1 tb Butter; melted

MMMMM----------------------------SOUP---------------------------------
    1/2 c  Heavy whipping cream
      2 ts Minced fresh parsley
      2 ts Minced fresh thyme
           Additional salt & pepper
 
  In a shallow bowl, mix 1/2 cup flour, salt and pepper.
  Add chicken, 1 piece at a time, and toss to coat; shake
  off excess. In a 6 qt. stockpot, heat oil over
  medium-high heat. Brown chicken in batches on all sides;
  remove from pan.
  
  Add onion, carrots and celery to same pan; cook and stir
  6-8 minutes or until onion is tender. Add garlic; cook
  and stir 1 minute longer. Stir in 1/4 cup flour until
  blended. Gradually add stock, stirring constantly. Stir
  in wine, sugar, bay leaves and peppercorns. Return
  chicken to pan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer,
  covered, 20-25 minutes or until chicken juices run
  clear.
  
  For dumplings, in a bowl, whisk flour, baking powder and
  salt. In another bowl, whisk milk and melted butter
  until blended. Add to flour mixture; stir just until
  moistened (do not overmix). Drop by rounded
  tablespoonfuls onto a parchment-lined baking sheet; set
  aside.
  
  Remove chicken from stockpot; cool slightly. Discard bay
  leaves and skim fat from soup. Remove skin and bones
  from chicken and discard. Using 2 forks, coarsely shred
  meat into 1" to 1 1/2" pieces; return to soup. Cook,
  covered, on high until mixture reaches a simmer.
  
  Drop dumplings on top of simmering soup, a few at a
  time. Reduce heat to low; cook, covered, 15-18 minutes
  or until a toothpick inserted in center of dumplings
  comes out clean (do not lift cover while simmering).
  Gently stir in cream, parsley and thyme. Season with
  additional salt and pepper to taste.
