In the meantime, Put flower and next three ingredients into bowl and mix. Add chicken, with juice to pot of broth. Then, slowly add ice water (not the ice) to the flour mixture while stirring. Add just enough water to make a not too sticky dough. Add balls of dough to broth mixture one at a time. Boil broth mixture until biggest dumpling is cooked through, stirring often. Make sure to check a few dumplings, just in case some aren't done.
