• My Update Note: It better than grandma's homemade chicken and dumplings and the gourmet chef who lives next door tasted it and thought it was an old family recipe. :) And loved it! First, you definitly need to add spices. I used cumin, parsley, poultry seasoning, seasoned salt and pepper. Next, I only used 1 can of biscuits, not 2. (I even used the reduced fat version and they tasted the same!) Thirdly, I used 1 can of cream of mushroom soup and 1 can of cream of chicken. Instead of water, I used 3/4 can of low sodium/lowfat chicken broth. At first, it seemed like way to much liquid, but eventually the biscuits soaked it all up! Fourthly, I added 2 CANS of mixed veggies (mix of carrots, peas, tiny potatoes, celery). I am not a fan of canned veggies by any means, but they tasted great in this recipe- so tender! I did add red onion, but I used only half and chopped the pieces extra small. Lastly, I cooked the biscuits for almost 3 hours for a total cooking time of 6.5 hours on high. 30 minutes is just not enough time! Another tip- if you accidentally add too much chicken broth, add a bit of sifted flour and the sauce thickens right up! I know that this recipe will be a winter tradition in our household for years to come!
• Some other adjustments I do sometime are as follows: Use 2 cans of cream of chicken soup (as directed- don't deviate with other cream soups) cover with 1 14 oz can of chicken broth (no need to cover with water, dillutes flavor). Put torn biscuit dough in roughly 90 minutes before ready to serve and make sure that you push them down into the liquid mixture a little, so that they get cooked on the tops, too and saturated with the chicken flavor. I made this recipe with veggies and without, it was better WITHOUT, because the consistency was better and the veggie flavor soaked into the dumplings. 5 hours on High is MORE than enough total cooking time. Also, leave chicken partially frozen when starting out and don't tear meat until right before adding dumplings, this keeps chicken moist. THIS ONE'S IS A WINNER TOO! Now you have three way to do it.

SLOW-COOKER CHICKEN & DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• Sprinkle chicken with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook and stir until no longer pink, 6-8 minutes. Transfer to a 6-qt. slow cooker. , In same skillet, cook celery, carrots and onion until tender, 6-8 minutes. Add garlic, tomato paste and remaining salt and pepper; cook 1 minute. Stir in flour; cook 1 minute longer. Whisk in 2 cups chicken broth; cook and stir until thickened. Transfer to slow cooker. Stir in bay leaves, thyme and remaining chicken broth. , For dumplings, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Stir in milk and butter to form a thick batter. Drop by 1/4 cupfuls over chicken mixture. Cook, covered, on low until bubbly and dumplings are set, 6-8 hours. Discard bay leaves. Remove insert and let stand, uncovered, for 15 minutes.

SLOW SIMMER CHICKEN AND DUMPLINS

Steps:

• In a large pot, bring chicken broth liquid to a boil. Add chicken, plus 1 tsp of salt & onion, celery, bay leaf & parsley into the pot. Reduce heat to a simmer & cook the chicken uncovered for 2 hours. The chicken liquid will reduce by about 1/3rd. (I used my crock pot and it worked very well).
• When the chicken has cooked, remove it from the pot & set aside to cool. Strain the stock to remove the veggies & floating scum, what you have left is the stock & chicken. I saved the celery and carrots and put them back into the broth. Discard all else.
• Pour 1 1/2 quarts (6 cups) of the stock in a smaller pot (save the balance for another use & it can be frozen). Add pepper, the remaining salt, & the lemon juice. Reheat the stock over medium heat while preparing the dumplins.
• Combine flour and ingredients in a medium bowl. Stir well till smooth, then let dough rest for about 10 minutes. Roll out dough on a floured surface to approximately 1/2 inch thick. Dough is very wet and sticky. Add extra flour as needed to roll it out.
• Cut dough into 1/2 inch squares & drop each into the simmering chicken stock. As the pot gets crowded, move dumplins out of the way with a wooden spoon as you carefully drop the rest of the dumplins into the simmering broth. Use all the squares. The dumplins will swell at first & then slowly shrink in size as they partially dissolve to thicken the stock to a white gravy. Simmer for 20-30 minutes till thick. STIR OFTEN.
• While the stock is thickening, the chicken will have become cool enough to handle. Tear all the meat from the bones & remove the skin. Cut the meat into bite size pieces & drop it into the pot. Discard the skin & bones. Continue to simmer for another 5 to 10 minutes, do not stir vigorously or the chicken will shred & fall apart. We want to strive for big Chunks at the completion of our recipe.
• When the thickened soup has reached the desired consistency, serve hot.
