Original Recipe Yield 6 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 3 celery ribs, chopped
  • 1 cup sliced fresh carrots
  • 3 (14.5 ounce) cans reduced sodium chicken broth
  • 1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 3 cups cooked, cubed chicken breast
  • 1 2/3 cups reduced-fat biscuit/baking mix
  • 2/3 cup fat-free milk

Directions

  1. In a Dutch oven coated with nonstick cooking spray, saute celery and carrots for 5 minutes. Stir in the broth, poultry seasoning and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered. Add the chicken.
