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.

Tips:
- Use a large pot or Dutch oven to make the dumplings. This will give them plenty of room to cook and prevent them from sticking together.
- If you don't have a biscuit mix, you can make your own using all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and shortening.
- To make drop dumplings, spoon the biscuit dough into the boiling chicken broth. For rolled dumplings, roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface and cut it into strips. Then, drop the strips into the boiling broth.
- Cook the dumplings until they are cooked through. This will take about 10-12 minutes for drop dumplings and 15-20 minutes for rolled dumplings.
- Serve the chicken and dumplings with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, green beans, or corn.
