Easy Chicken & Dumplings

Ingredients

• boneless skinless chicken breast
• olive oil
• poultry seasoning
• yellow onion
• chicken broth
• cream of mushroom soup
• frozen mixed vegetables
• milk
• Bisquick™ baking mix

Step by step

1. Cut chicken into bite-size pieces.
2. Heat olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook through, stirring often.
3. Add poultry seasoning and stir to coat.
4. Add onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until it starts to become translucent.
5. Add veggies, soup, broth, and 2 cups of milk. Stir.
6. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to a simmer.
7. In a medium bowl mix Bisquick and 1 cup milk until a soft dough forms. Drop dough by large spoonfuls into the simmering liquid the pot. Place the lid on the Dutch oven and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook 10 minutes without opening the lid to allow the Bisquick drop dumplings to steam. Remove the lid and cook an additional 5 minutes or until the dumplings are cooked through.
8. Serve hot, garnished with chopped parsley if desired.

Variations and substitutions

• use cans of cream of chicken soup instead of cream of mushroom
• add your favorite vegetables like chopped celery or broccoli
• experiment with the flavor using herbs such as fresh or dried thyme, a bay leaf, rosemary, marjoram, or season to taste with simply salt and pepper
• use shredded rotisserie chicken to make it even faster
• use chicken thighs instead of chicken breasts

Serving suggestions

While it can be a complete meal on its own there are a lot of great options for what to serve with chicken and dumplings. Light veggie dishes like salad, roasted vegetables, or Southern green beans are my favorites.
