HEARTY LANCASTER CHICKEN, VEGETABLE AND DUMPLING SOUP

Serves 4

This is a famous Pennsylvania summer soup made with extra vegetables for hearty winter eating. You can substitute noodles for the dumplings, or add crackers, pretzels $ and some people have told me that even popcorn works. I'm skeptical about the popcorn, but if you're feeling adventurous, give it a try.

6 cups chicken broth

2 cups cooked, diced chicken

1 teaspoon salt or to taste

1/8 teaspoon ground pepper

1/2 cup parboiled potatoes, cut in 1/2-inch cubes

1/2 cup parboiled carrots, cut in 1/2-inch pieces

1/2 cup shredded green cabbage

1 cup thinly-sliced leek, white and tender green parts only, or 1 medium onion, thinly sliced

1 package (10-ounces) frozen corn kernels from 2 ears of corn
