  tender, 45-60 minutes. Strain broth; return to stockpot.
  
  Remove chicken and set aside until cool enough to
  handle. Remove meat from bones; discard bones and skin.
  Cut chicken into chunks. Cool broth and skim off fat.
  
  Return chicken to stockpot with soups, vegetables and
  seasonings; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and
  simmer for 1 hour. Uncover; increase heat to a gentle
  boil. Discard bay leaf.
  
  For dumplings, combine dry ingredients in a medium bowl.
  Stir in egg, butter and enough milk to make a moist
  stiff batter. Drop by teaspoonfuls into soup. Cover and
  cook without lifting the lid, 18-20 minutes. If desired,
  sprinkle with parsley.
