I'm not entirely on board with this guy's technique, but between his accent and the tone of his voice and his laugh and the fact that he's talking about chicken and DUMPLINGS!, I could listen to this all day:

I like 'em when they're good, but am sort of turned off of them because my wife's version is pretty bad. Unfortunately, she loves her recipe.

How does she make them?

She boils boneless skinless chicken breasts and chops them up, adds some of this stuff http://static.caloriecount.about.com/images/medium/tones-chicken-base-51722.jpg and some butter to make a broth, then makes a Bisquick biscuit dough, basically. Works the dough so it will be a little more chewy than a biscuit dough would normally be, rolls it out to about 1/4" thick, slices it up into DUMPLINGS! and drops them into the simmering broth. Plenty of black pepper over everything while it's cooking. Generally, the DUMPLINGS! come out gummy, the chicken is tough and flavorless, and the broth doesn't have much flavor profile beyond "salty." I sure hope she doesn't read this.

Shit, that art is big. I think ILX code resizes images by default?

I think it depends on the theme you have? It's definitely resided to something manageable for me.

No disrespect to your wife, but I agree that doesn't sound very appealing.
