QUICK AND SUPER EASY CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS
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.

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
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.

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
I adapted this recipe from a recipe on a box of biscuit mix. I have added ingredients to the original recipe, which was a little thin for my taste. I like my soups and such to be thick with ingredients. I used canned chicken, but if you have leftover cooked chicken, feel free to use it (or use turkey for variety).

Steps:
- In a large saucepan, combine the ½ cup milk, peas and carrots, chicken, mushrooms and soup. (Note about the soup: The recipe software interpreted "creamy mushroom soup" as cream of mushroom soup. Do not used condensed cream of mushroom soup; look at the premium brands for "creamy mushroom soup" which is a ready to eat product.)
- Heat to boiling, stirring frequently.
- While soup mixture is heating, stir biscuit mix and the 1/3 cup milk together until it forms a soft dough.
- After soup mixture comes to a boil, drop the dough onto (not into) the chicken mixture in 8 or 9 spoonfuls.
- Sprinkle dumplings with paprika.
- Lower heat to low and simmer gently without a cover for 10 minutes, then cover and cook 10 minutes more.
- Serve hot.

Tips:
- Use a large pot or Dutch oven to make sure there's enough room for the chicken, dumplings, and broth.
- Season the chicken generously with salt and pepper before browning. This will help to develop flavor in the dish.
- Be careful not to overcook the chicken. If you're using boneless, skinless chicken breasts, they will only need to cook for a few minutes per side.
- When making the dumplings, be sure to mix the flour and baking powder together thoroughly. This will help to ensure that the dumplings are light and fluffy.
- Drop the dumplings into the boiling broth one at a time. This will help to prevent them from sticking together.
- Cook the dumplings for 10-12 minutes, or until they are cooked through. You can check this by inserting a toothpick into the center of a dumpling. If the toothpick comes out clean, the dumpling is cooked.
- Serve the chicken and dumplings immediately, topped with fresh parsley or chives.
Conclusion:
This easy chicken and dumplings recipe is a delicious and comforting meal that's perfect for a weeknight dinner. The chicken is cooked in a flavorful broth, and the dumplings are light and fluffy. This dish is sure to please the whole family.
