Chicken - N - Biscuit Dumplings image

Long story short, we planned to go out to eat today, being my kids don't care for the usual pork n kraut, and the fact that I deserved a break...lol! Well, snowy, bad roads changed our plans...so, not being prepared to cook today...luckily, I had some cans of biscuits and a chicken in the freezer. This is what I prepared... It...

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 - 5 -6 lb whole chicken, cleaned
1/2 tsp dried sage
1/2 tsp poultry seasoning
1 Tbsp dried thyme
2 - 3 bay leaves
salt and pepper
3/4 c carrots, sliced
1 large onion, chopped
3/4 c celery sliced
water to cover chicken
chicken buillon
2 can(s) grands biscuits
flour for biscuits

Steps:

  • 1. In a large stock pot, place chicken and next 8 ingredients. Cover chicken with water, by about 2 inches. Bring to a boil, and poach chicken till juices run clear. About 1 - 1 1/2 hours.
  • 2. Remove chicken from pot to cool. After cool enough to touch, pull apart into desired sized pieces.
  • 3. Strain chicken stock. Return stock and veggies to pot. Should be about 10 cups. I then added another 4 cups of water. Seasoned with 2 tablespoons chicken or turkey buillon paste.
  • 4. Bring the broth back to a boil. While broth is coming to a boil. Pull your biscuits apart into pieces about the size of a quarter. Toss in flour to keep from sticking together.
  • 5. When broth is boiling, add the biscuit pieces a few at a time... and any remaining flour. Once all biscuits are in the broth, gently stir to make sure they aren't sticking together. ( I also take the back of spoon and keep pushing them under the broth until they are firming up and plainly separated from each other). Keep boiling for another 5 - 10 minutes until they lose their puffiness and resemble thick noodles and no longer gooey.
  • 6. I then taste the broth and add more seasoning if needed.
  • 7. Return the chicken pieces to the broth, cook until heated through. If you like a thicker broth. Make a slurry of corn starch and water. Making sure broth is boiling, stir in the corn starch. I used about 2 tablespoons and 1/2 cup water. Enjoy!!

The dumplings were a bit too dense for my liking. I think I overmixed the dough.

These dumplings were a little bland for my taste. I added some extra herbs and spices and they were much better.
