Heat Dutch Oven over medium high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil then the chicken. Cook for few minutes until no longer pink. Transfer chicken to a bowl.
Reduce heat to medium and add remaining oil. Stir in onions and saute for few minutes then add the celery and carrots. Cook for about 5 minutes before adding the broth, water and rosemary. Let it simmer.
In a small bowl, combine the flour, baking soda and ⅓ teaspoon salt. Using a fork, incorporate the shortening then add the milk. Mix nicely into a dough.
Return the chicken into the pot. Drop dough into the pot by teaspoons. Stir and simmer for 5 minutes covered then uncover adding the peas and simmer until dumplings are cooked through about 5 more minutes. Adjust seasoning. Garnish with parsley when serving. Yum!
