Cook chicken in a skillet with Italian dressing, salt, and pepper until done, then set aside.

In a large pot, bring 10 cups of chicken broth to a boil, adding 1 teaspoon of salt and pepper.

In a bowl, combine 2 1/2 cups flour, 1 tbsp baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.

Cut 4 tbsp of cold salted butter into small pieces and mix into the flour until crumbly.

Add 1 cup of milk and mix until a dough ball forms, then knead lightly for about a minute.

Roll out the dough to 1/4 inch thick and cut into 1-inch squares using a pizza cutter.

Sprinkle flour over the dumplings to prevent sticking, then transfer them to a bowl and toss with more flour.

Add shredded chicken and dumplings to the boiling broth, mixing gently.

Cover and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes.
