NOSTALGIC CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS

6 bone-in chicken breast halves, skin removed

2 whole cloves
12 frozen pearl or small whole onions, thawed
1 bay leaf
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp dried thyme

1 cup chicken broth
3 tbsp cornstarch
1/4 cup cold water

Place chicken in a slow cooker. Insert cloves in an onion and add to slow cooker. Add bay leaf and remaining onions. Sprinkle chicken with garlic, salt, thyme, marjoram, and pepper. Pour broth over chicken. Cover and cook on low 4 to 5 hours until the chicken juices run clear. Remove chicken and keep warm. Discard cloves and bay leaf. Increase temperature to high. In a small bowl, combine cornstarch, water, and browning sauce until smooth. Slowly stir into the slow cooker. In another bowl, combine biscuit mix, milk, and parsley. Drop by tablespoonfuls onto simmering liquid. Cover and simmer for 20-25 minutes without lifting lid. Dumplings are done when a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
