Easy Chicken and Dumplings for #SundaySupper

It's the perfect time of year for dishes that keep you warm and for this Sunday Supper, we are doing just that. This warm and comforting event is being hosted by none other than Susan over at The Girl In The Little Red Kitchen. The recipes are just right for this time of year, it makes you want to curl up in a blanket by the fire and enjoy.

Easy Chicken and

Dumplings

Directions

Place the chicken, onion, bay leaves, and

bouillon, in a large pot. Add 4 quarts of water, simmer over medium heat. Simmer

the chicken until it is tender and the thigh juices run clear, about 40 minutes.

Remove the chicken from the pot

and, when it is cool enough to handle, remove the skin and separate the meat

from the bones. Return the chicken meat to the pot. Keep warm over low

heat.

Add the cream of chicken soup to the pot with

the chicken and simmer gently over medium-low heat.

To prepare the dumplings: Mix the flour with the

salt and pepper in a shallow bowl or plate. Take each biscuits and tear into three layers. Dip each layer into the flour mixture. (both sides) Cut each layer into three pieces. I used my pizza cutter. You could use a knife or just tear them for a more rustic looking dumpling.

Do not stir the chicken once the dumplings have been added. Push the pieces of dough down into the broth. Gently move

the pot in a circular motion so the dumplings become submerged and cook evenly.

Cook until the dumplings are no longer doughy, about 10 minutes.

To

serve, ladle chicken, gravy, and dumplings into warm bowls.
