Place the chicken in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook until the chicken is tender and fully cooked.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the dumpling dough. Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Add the milk and stir until a dough forms.
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the pot and shred it. Return the shredded chicken to the pot.
Drop spoonfuls of the dumpling dough into the boiling chicken broth. Cover the pot and let the dumplings cook for about 15 minutes, until they are fluffy and cooked through.
Serve the chicken and dumplings hot, with a pat of butter on top if desired.
