### Ingredients
- 1 whole chicken (about 3-4 pounds), cut into pieces
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 1 onion, chopped
- 3 carrots, sliced
- 2 celery stalks, sliced
- 2 cups bisquick mix
- 1 cup milk
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh herbs (like thyme or parsley) for garnish
Instructions
- In a large pot, combine the chicken pieces, chicken broth, onion, carrots, and celery. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low. Simmer until the chicken is cooked through, about 30 minutes.
- Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the pot and let it cool slightly. Shred the meat, discarding the skin and bones. Return the shredded chicken to the pot.
- In a separate bowl, mix the bisquick and milk until it forms a batter. Drop spoonfuls of the batter into the simmering broth. Make sure to leave some space between each dumpling, as they will expand while cooking.
- Cover the pot and let the dumplings cook for about 10-12 minutes. Do not lift the lid during this time, as it will disrupt the cooking process.
- Once the dumplings are fluffy and cooked through, season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste. If desired, sprinkle fresh herbs on top for added flavor.
- Serve hot and enjoy every comforting bite!
Chicken and Dumplings is not just a meal; it’s a warm embrace on a plate. I hope this recipe brings as much joy and comfort to your table as it does to mine.
