Easy Chicken and Dumplings for Beginners
Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 3 skinless, boneless chicken thighs, cut into cubes
  • 1 skinless, boneless chicken breast half, cut into cubes
  • 6 cups water
  • 1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
  • 3 cubes chicken bouillon
  • 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose baking mix (such as Bisquick®)
Instructions
1
Heat a large pot over medium heat and melt the butter, stirring occasionally until it reaches a smooth consistency. Introduce sliced onions into the pot and cook them gently, stirring frequently until they start to lose their crispness, approximately 3 minutes. Next, add diced chicken and continue cooking while stirring until it reaches a fully cooked state, with no pinkish hue visible in the center, roughly 10 minutes.
2
Add water, condensed soup, bouillon cubes, and poultry seasoning to the pot, stirring until all the ingredients are well combined. Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
3
In a separate bowl, combine milk and baking mix. Stir until the ingredients form a smooth dough-like consistency.
4
Gradually drop spoonfuls of dumpling mix into the simmering soup. Decrease the heat to medium-low, cover the pot with a lid, and let it simmer for 10 minutes. Flip over the dumplings and continue to cook until they are no longer doughy in the center, approximately 10 additional minutes.
