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.

Time 20m

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.

Categories     Cream Soups

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 c whole milk
1 c frozen peas and carrots
1 c cut-up, cooked chicken
10 3/4 oz condensed cream of chicken and mushroom soup
1 c baking mix (like bisquick)
1/3 c whole milk
paprika (if desired)

  • 3. Cook uncovered 10 minutes. Cover and cook 10 minutes longer. Sprinkle with paprika.
  • 4. Makes 4 servings.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use a combination of dark meat and white meat chicken.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot when cooking the chicken. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly.
  • Be careful not to overcook the chicken. Overcooked chicken will be tough and dry.
  • Use a large pot to cook the dumplings. This will give them plenty of room to cook without sticking together.
  • Don't stir the dumplings too much while they are cooking. This will make them tough.
  • Serve the chicken and dumplings immediately with a sprinkle of fresh parsley or chives.
