CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS

CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS

My Daughter-in-Law made the best chicken and dumplings I have tasted.  She shared her recipe with me:

3-5 lb. chicken

2 1/4 C. original Bisquick mix

2/3    C. heavy whipping cream for dumplings

about 1/2 C. heavy whipping cream for soup

1 lb. frozen carrots and peas  (optional)

Boil chicken in large soup pot until done.  You may add bullion to taste if you only cook chicken breast instead of a whole chicken.  Cool and de-bone.  Add meat back to pot.  Mix Bisquick mix and 2/3 C. heavy whipping cream.  Add vegetables to water.  Bring to boil.  Drop dumplings by teaspoonfuls into boiling water.  reduce heat; cook uncovered 10 minutes.  Add additional whipping cream to make it creamy.  Cover;  cook 10 minutes longer.  Enjoy.

Let me know what you think of this one.
