How To Make Chicken And Dumplings?
- Gather ingredients: Collect all the ingredients to have them ready for use.
- Prepare the soup base: Stir the condensed cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, and shredded chicken in a large saucepan over medium-high heat until it begins to simmer.
- Prepare the biscuits: Cut each biscuit into quarters, then gently stir them into the simmering soup.
- Simmer the dumplings: Reduce heat to medium-low, cover the pan, and simmer for 10-15 minutes until the biscuits are fully cooked and no longer doughy in the center.
- Serve and enjoy: Once the dumplings are cooked through, serve hot and enjoy!
Recipe Tips:
- Make sure the chicken is cooked: Cook the chicken before adding it to the soup. This saves time and keeps it from being raw.
- Cut the biscuits the same size: When cutting the biscuit dough, make sure all pieces are the same size so they cook evenly.
- Stir the biscuits gently: Don’t stir too much after adding the biscuits. This keeps them whole and stops them from falling apart.
- Simmer the soup: Keep the soup at a low simmer. If it boils, the dumplings can get too hard.
- Check if the dumplings are done: Use a toothpick to check the dumplings. If it comes out clean, they’re done cooking.
How To Store & Reheat Leftovers?
- Refrigerate: First, let the leftover chicken and dumplings cool to room temperature. Then, transfer them to an airtight container and store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Freeze: After cooling, place the chicken and dumplings in a freezer-safe container or bag. Freeze for up to 3 months. To thaw, move it to the fridge overnight before reheating.
- Reheat: Place the chicken and dumplings in a saucepan over low heat, stirring occasionally. Heat for 10-15 minutes until hot, adding a little broth if it seems too thick.
