Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds chicken breast tenders
1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 turn of the pan
2 tablespoons butter
1 russet potato, peeled and diced
2 medium carrots, peeled and diced or thinly sliced
1 medium onion, chopped
1 rib celery, diced
1 bay leaf, fresh or dried
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning, 1/3 palm full
2 tablespoons flour, a handful
1 quart chicken broth or stock, canned or paper container, preferred brand Kitchen Basics
1 small box biscuit mix(preferred brand Jiffy Mix)
1/2 cup warm water
Handful flat-leaf parsley, chopped
1 cup frozen green peas

Directions

Dice tenders into bite size pieces and set aside. Wash hands.

Place a large pot on stove over medium high heat. Add oil, butter, vegetables and bay leaf and cook 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Season mixture with salt, pepper and poultry seasoning. Add flour to the pan and cook 2 minutes. Stir broth or stock to the pot and bring to a boil. Add chicken to the broth and stir.

Place biscuit mix in a bowl. Combine with 1/2 cup warm water and parsley. Drop tablespoonfuls of prepared mix into the pot, spacing dumplings evenly. Cover pot tightly and reduce heat to medium low. Steam dumplings 8 to 10 minutes. Remove cover and stir chicken and dumplings to thicken sauce a bit. Stir peas into the pan, remove chicken and dumplings from heat and serve in shallow bowls.

BISQUICK!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I used Bisquick--no self-respecting Southerner uses Jiffy mix. Added a bit more thyme and some seasoned salt, DELICIOUS!

Gone in less than 24 hours!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made this last week and another pot today. The first pot didn't even make it for a 24 hours period of time. I added... cayenne pepper - and more than I intended to - and my hubby loved it! I also used garlic powder, onion powder, garlic salt and celery salt. Threw in some fresh thyme sprigs as well as a little dried thyme. Made the dumplings from Bisquick and added thyme, parsley, garlic powder and onion powder to the dumplings. I also used boneless, skinless chicken thighs as that is what I had on hand. Today's pot isn't as spicy as my parents are coming for lunch. I also stewed a chicken with veggies and extra chicken thighs overnight in the crockpot and used homemade broth. The flavor is not the same but it is still very good and I look forward to serving it to my family!Read more

Fast and Yummy!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This turned out great! I added 1 teas of old bay, like an earlier review suggested, and added a little chopped fresh... rosemary. I added some chopped rosemary to the biscuit mix too, and it was "Yummo". It's our new family favorite.Read more
