Easy Chicken ‘n’ Dumplings

posted in Recipes, Food, How-To |

I don’t remember where I found this recipe, but I wrote it down and didn’t try it for a WHILE. Finally, I tried it about a month ago and it was sooo delicious. The man agreed that this recipe had thumbs-up rating, so we made it again last week.

You will need:
1 1/2 cups milk
1 cup (or more) frozen veggies
1 cup cooked chicken (but we did more), cut-up
1 can condensed cream of chicken mushroom soup

1 cup Bisquick
1/3 cup milk

It doesn’t take long to cook the chicken in a pan. Let it cool for a while before you cut it up, so you don’t lose all those good juices.

While it’s cooling, go ahead and start the pot. Put in your milk, soup, and veggies.

Bring it to a boil, stirring frequently so you don’t burn the milk.

Also go ahead and mix up the Bisquick + milk for your dumplings.

Now, cut up your chicken and add it to the pot. Decide it needs more veggies. Because veggies are good.

Add more veggies and stir them in.

That’s better.

Once it’s all hot (if you just added frozen veggies you have to wait a few minutes), drop in your dumplings. You should get about 8-10 out of your dough.

Don’t stir it! Simmer uncovered 10 minutes. Then simmer covered for another 10 minutes. Don’t bother your pot… it’s doing ok.

Dinner is served!

Is it cold in Pensacola? That strikes me as a wintry sort of dish. But maybe you just have really good air conditioning.

That looks so good. I just ran a triathlon today and it was FORTY degrees out. I think I’m going to be frozen for the rest of the week.

No it’s not cold at ALL. I just like chicken and dumplings, and don’t generally let the weather rule what I eat… except for in-season fruits and veggies.
We do have really good air conditioning.

Jenn… you need to whip some up to make you warm!

Oh my. That looks fantastic, as does the Cheater’s Chowder. I was thinking recently about making some dinners that will have left overs for lunch the next day, and those certainly sound like good recipes.

Oh I want dumplings so much now…

I think this is a new favourite dinner for my husband and I.
I made it last night, it was quick, warming, filling and just yummy.

We both had a big bowl and could barely move afterwards, with leftovers too

Thanks Emily!
