Start with a whole fryer chicken and a pack of chicken wings in a large pot.

Set the stove to medium-high heat and bring the chicken to a steady boil without a lid to prevent boiling over.

Once boiling steadily, cover the pot with a lid and let it cook for about 2 hours.

After about 1 hour and 35 minutes, remove the lid and take out the chicken wings using a slotted spoon.

Leave the breast in the pot to cook for an additional 15 minutes.

Once the chicken is fully cooked and falling off the bone, remove it from the pot and set it aside.

Strain the chicken broth to remove any impurities, leaving the clear broth in the pot.

In a mixing bowl, measure out 3 cups of flour and add milk until the mixture reaches a consistency that can be dropped by spoonfuls.

Bring the strained chicken broth back to a boil on the stove.

Drop spoonfuls of the dumpling mixture into the boiling broth without stirring them too much to prevent them from breaking apart.

Let the dumplings cook for a couple of minutes, then gently stir to ensure they are not sticking together and allow them to fluff up.

Continue adding dumplings until the mixture is used up, ensuring to place them in areas of the broth that are boiling well.
