EASY CREAMY CHICKEN DUMPLING SOUP
This is my homemade Chicken Dumpling Soup. It has a slightly creamy base, not quite a cream soup, but not a broth either. The dumplings are not the fluffy kind, but chewy, more like an egg noodle. I use chicken breasts, just a preference, but you could use any type of chicken pieces. It freezes great, but is best to freeze without the dumplings, and make the dumplings when you serve it.

HEARTY CHICKEN AND DUMPLING STEW
Steps:
- Rinse the barley under cold water until the water runs clear; drain. Pour boiling water over the beans, drain and remove skins. Heat the oil in a large saucepan, add the chicken in batches, cook until well browned all over - this is important to achieve color and flavor. Add the leeks, garlic, celery, carrots and zucchini, cook, stirring, until leeks are soft. Add the chicken stock and tomato paste, bring to a boil. Add the barley and simmer, covered, for 20 minutes. Return the chicken to the pan with the beans. FOR THE DUMPLINGS: Combine the dry ingredients in a bowl, stir in the cheese and butter and mix well. Add enough of the water to form a soft dough. Drop level tablespoons of dumpling mixture into the simmering soup, cover and simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the dumplings, are cooked through and the barley is tender. Stir in the herbs, season to taste with salt and pepper, serve immediately. The soup can be prepared a day ahead, however, the barley will thicken the soup overnight. The dumplings are best made just before serving as they will thicken soup also.

CHICKEN AND DUMPLING CASSEROLE
When I made this dish, I was trying to figure out how to use my leftover roasted chicken. I was thinking on the lines of pot pie but instead using dumplings for the top. This casserole turned out delicious and makes a hearty meal. If you love dumplings like my family does, you'll love this dish. It's actually easy to make, and you can make it from scratch using ingredients you already have on hand.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- 2. Place boneless, skinless chicken breasts in sauce pan with enough water to cover the chicken. Bring to a boil, then turn off the heat; place a lid on your pot and allow to sit for 10-15 minutes to finish cooking.
- 3. Remove chicken from stock (reserve the stock) and allow to cool, then shred the chicken. When building the layered casserole, do not mix the layers.
- 4. Layer 1 - In 9x13 or larger casserole dish, melt 1 stick of butter. Spread shredded chicken over butter. Sprinkle black pepper and dried sage over this layer. Note: If you want to serve this as a pot pie, add a layer of vegetables now.
- 5. Layer 2 - In small bowl, mix milk and Bisquick. Slowly pour over chicken.
- 6. Layer 3 - In medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups of the chicken stock (strained, if needed), chicken granules and soup. Once blended, slowly pour over the Bisquick layer. (Tip - Add some of the hot stock to the soup can to help melt the soup and get it all out of the can). Bake time varies by oven and the size pan you decide to use, therefore, bake until the top is golden brown- approx. 50-60 minutes.
Tips:
- Use a large pot: This will give the dumplings plenty of room to cook without crowding them.
- Make sure the water is boiling before adding the dumplings: This will help prevent them from sticking together.
- Add the dumplings one at a time: This will also help prevent them from sticking together.
- Stir the dumplings gently while they are cooking: This will help prevent them from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
- Cook the dumplings until they are cooked through: The dumplings should be cooked through when they float to the top of the pot and are no longer doughy in the center.
- Serve the dumplings immediately: Dumplings are best served hot and fresh.
Conclusion:
Chicken and dumplings is a classic comfort food that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is a hearty and filling dish that is sure to please everyone at the table. The dumplings are soft and fluffy, and the chicken is cooked to perfection. The broth is flavorful and comforting, and it is perfect for dipping the dumplings in.
