This is my go-to chicken and dumplings recipe. It is very easy to make and is not too time-consuming. I would not change a thing!

This recipe was amazing!!!I made it for my husband and he told me that it was the best that he ever had tasted. I added more vegetables than the recipe called for and some garlic. I will definitely be making this again!!

I've been using this recipe for 5 years now and every winter when I was in college in the NC mountians, I would make it when we were snowed in with power. I tried it by what Rachel Ray put, but I prefer to use chicken breasts from the meat department. I also tried the jiffy mix dumplings but a roommate suggest getting frozen biscuits because the cook faster or something. The Recipe still came out great and all the seasoning for dead on. It made about 4 or 5 amount it was listed for, it was great!!!
