- In large plastic or possibly paper bag, coat chicken with flour in 2 batches, shaking off excess. Place in single layer on wax paper
- Hot 3 Tbsp. of the oil in 8-qt Dutch oven over medium heat.
- Add in chicken in batches so pan is not crowded. Cook 15 to 20 min per batch, or possibly till browned on all sides. Remove to large plate.
- Hot remaining 1 Tbsp. of oil in same pan over medium heat. Add in leeks; cook 5 min, or possibly till lightly browned, stirring to scrape up brown bits. Add in carrots, celery and apple wedges; cook 4 min. Add in browned chicken, broth, juice, dill, salt and pepper. Cover; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 15 min.
- While chicken cooks, make dumpling batter (recipe follows).

Simmer over medium-low heat, covered, about 16 min, or possibly till dumplings are done. (Approximate microwave time: De- ost 45 min. When defrosted, place in deep, 10-inch skillet.
