You’ll Make Bisquick Chicken and Dumplings on Repeat Because…
- Hearty and wholesome chicken and dumplings with Bisquick are full of savory flavors.
- The base of this dish has a rich chicken-flavored creaminess.
- This pairs perfectly with the soft, tender, and fluffy dumplings.
- Using Bisquick saves time compared to measuring and mixing separate ingredients.
- It’s an easy, one-pot meal that goes from the stove to the table quickly.
Ingredients
Chicken: Leftover chicken, canned, or rotisserie chicken works great in this recipe.
Bisquick: Buy or make it and have it on hand for everything from waffles to biscuits.
PRO TIP: Use a whisk to aerate the Bisquick mix before scooping it out of the package, to ensure the right amount is measured.
Soup: You don’t need to buy the name-brand cream of chicken soup if there’s a cheaper store-brand option. Any brand will taste great!
Vegetables: Frozen peas and carrots taste perfect in this recipe!
Variations: Add some extra flavor to the dumplings by mixing in some homemade ranch mix. No cream of chicken soup on hand? Cream of mushroom or cream of celery soups are also great options. Diced cooked potatoes, chopped spinach, or a combination of leftover veggies from the fridge will make this dish new every time.
How to Make Chicken and Dumplings with Bisquick
- In a pot or Dutch oven, whisk milk, frozen vegetables, chicken, soup, and seasonings.
- Bring mixture to a boil then reduce to a simmer (recipe below).
- Combine Bisquick with milk and drop spoonfuls on top of the chicken soup.
- When dumplings are cooked through, serve as desired.
Serving Suggestions
- For a fresh, aromatic twist, add fresh herbs including thyme, parsley, or rosemary to the chicken mixture.
- Substitute half the milk in the chicken mixture for heavy cream or sour cream for a rich and creamy texture.
- For an extra savory flavor, saute some chopped onion and minced garlic before adding the other ingredients.
- Add some cheddar or parmesan to the dough for an extra cheesy flavor.
- If using a Dutch oven or other oven-proof pot to cook, try placing the finished dish under the broiler for a minute or two for golden and slightly crisp dumplings.
- Add a tablespoon of melted herb and garlic butter to the dumplings for fantastic flavor.
- Chicken and dumplings are a full meal deal and taste great served with a simple spinach and strawberry salad. Or serve them with mashed potatoes and a side of oven roasted asparagus for a meal to remember.
Leftovers
- Keep leftover Bisquick chicken and dumplings separated in covered containers for up to 4 days.
- Reheat the soup mixture in the microwave or on the stovetop. Dumplings can then be reheated in the microwave or topped with the simmering soup.
- Freeze chicken and dumplings separately in zippered freezer bags for up to 2 months and thaw in the refrigerator before reheating.
- Add a fresh can of soup and milk to leftovers or incorporate them into a tasty casserole.
