Time 1h

Yield 6-8 , 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 large boneless skinless chicken breasts
10 cups water
2 celery ribs, chopped
1 onion, chopped
2 tablespoons chicken bouillon
1 (10 ounce) can cream of chicken soup, undiluted
10 (8 inch) flour tortillas

Steps:

  • In a very large kettle, or roaster, place chicken breasts, water, celery, and onion. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and cook for about 30 minutes or until chicken is tender. Remove and set aside to cool.
  • Reserve broth in roaster(you should have about 9 cups of broth>).
  • Add chicken bouillon and taste to make sure it is tasty.
  • Add more bouillon if needed and more water if you do not have 9 cups of broth.
  • When chicken is cool enough, cut into bite-size pieces and set aside.
  • Add chicken soup to broth and bring to a boil.
  • Cut tortillas into 2x1 inch strips. Add strips, one at a time, to briskly boiling broth mixture and stir constantly.
  • When all strips have been added, spoon in chicken, reduce heat to low and simmer 5-10 minutes, stirring well but gently, to prevent dumplings from sticking.
  • When done, kettle of chicken and dumplings will be very thick.
  • Pour into very large serving bowl, and serve hot.
