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.”

This was pretty good!!! I had read that others added some veggies, which I failed to do... but I knew my husband wouldn't like it unless it was thick.... sooo... I added a can of cream of chicken, some milk, sour cream (you wouldn't think it would taste good, but it was delectable), and just a bit of butter. Oh and I didn't use all of the dough... maybe about 3/4 of the dough. Other than that, it tastes amazing.

Great starter recipe! I'm very new to cooking, but this was a fantastic recipe to build on. Personally, I used leftover chicken and 3 cups of homemade chicken stock with about a half cup of water. Then i added half a bag of mixed veggies. It was fantastic, and the dumplings cooked perfectly.

Yummy. Added carrots, corn, and peas. The dumplings seemed HUGE when I first put them in, but seemed to shrink as the soup cooked. The soup also thickened, so I think some of the size of the dumplings dissolved and became "thickener".

Thank you, thank you, thank you busy mom. This recipe is simply divine, and I do mean "simply". I literally had this on the table in 30 minutes. And I even sautéed onions, carrots, and celery in a tablespoon of butter and two boneless skinless chicken breasts rather than canned. My daughter said it was the best thing she ever ate. Lol.

Super good! I served to my DH and he said "we need to make this more often!" The only changes I made was to chop up some carrots and celery and saute them before adding the broth (1 32oz container). I did use bisquick mix and baked 1lb of chicken that I shredded and added when I added the dough. It was amazing! Thanks for posting.

it was good. I added the celery, carrots and onion like the other reviews said, but to be honest, it wasn't thick enough for our taste. if it was thicker, it would've been better. Thanks!

Quick and easy? Yes. I followed the recipe for the dumplings. I used boiled chicken. It was a little bland and my dumplings were like little puffy biscuits.
