QUICK AND SUPER EASY CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS



Quick and Super Easy Chicken and Dumplings image

This is a great recipe for Southern-style chicken and dumplings. My husband doesn't usually like chicken and dumplings, but he absolutely loved these and asked for seconds (which he never does with anything). My little boys (2, 4, and 5 years) ate it up and asked for more also. I just threw this together on a night I didn't feel like spending much time and energy on cooking. This is great and easy for the kids to help with also.

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 ¼ cups biscuit baking mix
⅔ cup milk
2 (14 ounce) cans chicken broth
2 (10 ounce) cans chunk chicken, drained

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, stir together the biscuit mix and milk just until it pulls together. Set aside.
  • Pour the cans of chicken broth into a saucepan along with the chicken; bring to a boil. Once the broth is at a steady boil, take a handful of biscuit dough and flatten it in your hand. Tear off 1 to 2 inch pieces and drop them into the boiling broth. Make sure they are fully immersed at least for a moment. Once all of the dough is in the pot, carefully stir so that the newest dough clumps get covered by the broth. Cover, and simmer over medium heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

QUICK CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS



Quick Chicken and Dumplings image

This is the perfect soup for when you're craving chicken and dumplings, but not quite up to the task of making the traditional dish. Store-bought rotisserie chicken and gnocchi live their best lives here, simmered in a comforting broth of chicken stock and heavy cream seasoned with rosemary and thyme. Leeks, carrots and celery are standard, but butternut squash, parsnips, mushrooms, fennel or shallots are worthy additions. Simply sauté your aromatics and vegetables, simmer with some chicken stock and cream, stir in the chicken and gnocchi, and dinner is done in 20 minutes from start to finish.

Time 20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings (about 9 cups)

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 medium carrots or 8 ounces butternut squash, peeled and chopped into 1/2-inch pieces (about 1 cup)
1 medium leek, trimmed, white and pale green portion halved lengthwise and thinly sliced (about 1 cup)
2 medium celery stalks, peeled and sliced 1/2-inch thick (about 2/3 cup)
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning (optional)
Kosher salt and black pepper
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
5 cups chicken stock
1 cup heavy cream
1 (16-ounce) package fresh or shelf-stable store-bought gnocchi
1/2 small (3-pound) store-bought rotisserie chicken, skin and bones discarded, meat torn into bite-size pieces (about 2 cups shredded meat)
Fresh tarragon, parsley or dill, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a large pot, melt the butter over medium. Add the carrots, leek, celery, garlic, rosemary, thyme and poultry seasoning, if using. Season generously with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are slightly softened, about 5 minutes.
  • Sprinkle with the flour, then cook, stirring, 2 minutes. (This cooks the flour to soften its raw flavor.) Gradually stir in the stock and cream, and bring to a boil over high heat.
  • Once the mixture boils, stir in the gnocchi, reduce the heat to medium and cook until gnocchi and vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in the chicken in the last couple of minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Divide among bowls and top with fresh tarragon and more black pepper, if desired.

QUICK CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS



Quick Chicken and Dumplings image

A one-pot recipe that is packed with chicken, veggies and delicious dumplings, with no canned 'cream soup needed. Developed by: Recipe by The Slow Roasted Italian

Provided by Bonnie G 2

Categories     Chicken

Time 30m

Yield 1 Soup, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 19

4 cups chicken broth
1 cup water
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 teaspoons poultry seasoning
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast
1 cup all-purpose flour
3 cups milk
2 cups frozen peas and carrots
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon butter (softened)
1 cup milk

Steps:

  • In a heavy bottomed Dutch oven or large wide pot, over medium heat, add chicken broth, water, butter and all seasonings (poultry seasoning, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, parsley, basil, and pepper). Cover and bring to a boil.
  • Meanwhile, cut chicken breast into bite sized pieces. Add to the pot. Stir to combine and cover.
  • In a sealable container (such as a large mason jar) combine flour and milk. Seal tightly and shake vigorously to combine well. You will create a smooth flour mixture for thickening your sauce called a slurry. Slowly pour the slurry into the pot, stirring constantly. Add frozen vegetables and cover.
  • Meanwhile combine dumpling ingredients in a medium bowl. Mix well with a fork. Remove cover from the soup pot and stir well.
  • Drop dumplings into the soup one tablespoon at a time, use a 1 tablespoon scoop to make it even easier. Reduce heat to simmer, cover and cook until soup is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 10 minutes.

Tips:

  • For a thicker broth, use less water or stock. For a thinner broth, use more.
  • If you don't have a biscuit mix, you can make your own using flour, baking powder, salt, and butter.
  • You can use any type of vegetables you like in this soup. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and peas.
  • If you don't have any cooked chicken, you can use rotisserie chicken or canned chicken.
  • To make the soup ahead of time, cook the soup according to the recipe and then let it cool completely. Store the soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When you're ready to serve, reheat the soup over medium heat until warmed through.

Conclusion:

Chicken and dumplings is a classic comfort food that is easy to make and loved by people of all ages. This recipe for Caroline's Quick Chicken and Dumplings is a great way to enjoy this classic dish.
