"This is a Rachel Ray recipe I had in my file for quite awhile, and had to try it recently to satisfy a craving. It turned out really well. I used made from scratch biscuit recipe as I couldn't locate the jiffy mix in my area, I made about 6 biscuits. Also, I think the refrigerated biscuits would work as well. Otherwise I followed the recipe pretty much exactly."

It's a great recipe no matter how you make it, but there is just one problem. Once you cook the dumplings, they pretty much cover the top of the pot and you really can't stir in anything else without messing them up. I add whatever I'm going to add and thicken it all before putting in the dumplings, then it's all ready to spoon out when the dumplings are done. By the way, to make dumplings from a larger box of Bisquick, follow the recipe for biscuits but add a little more milk, enough so the dough is sticky, and drop them in the hot chicken mixture.
Liked all the reviews the contributor mentioned using canned biscuits and she’s right. My mother taught me to make it that way years ago. Just cut each biscuit into 4 pieces and drop them in no fuss no mess. My mother was a great cook who learned to cook smart. Enjoy!
I'll try any Chicken with Dumpling recipe and usually like or love it. Simple comfort food. This was okay. A little bland, so would add more seasoning and salt (or better-hot sauce) next time. Though I doubt I'll do again - too much chopping and preparing vegetables. But I had all the ingredients, so thought I'd give it a go. However, my biggest complaint with this is the dumpling part. I had Jiffy mix, but never used for dumplings and it didn't work for me. Followed directions to the letter, and they looked great when all was done, but as soon as time came to ladle and serve, they completely dissolved and as a result I lost half of the recipe's title. I've used Bisquick's dumpling recipe in past recipes and they always set firm and never dissolve. I recommend using Bisquick.
I've been making this recipe for years. Quick, easy and DELICIOUS! I can't find Jiffy Biscuit Mix in the small boxes anymore, but their large box of "Baking Mix" is similar and just as tasty. Don't leave the fresh parsley out of the dumplings - it makes the whole dish!
My husband loves this recipe. I follow the recipe pretty closely, and instead of using the jiffy mix, make my own using flour, salt, baking soda and milk.
The first time I made this, I ended up with some really hard dumplings because I didn't use a wide pot. So the next time, I made just enough dumplings to cover the top of the pot. Then, in another pan, I made the rest of the batch (I just used additional two cans of chicken broth mixed with some poultry seasoning so the dumplings could cook in it). It came out wonderful and we ended up with light fluffy dumplings.

The Only reason this gets 4 stars is because it was a bit too runny for us. Maybe it was my own fault, but it just didn't quite thicken up...have to wait till the next day for that I guess. The taste was good, I added a bit of Rosemary and Thyme, and used corn instead of peas, because I didn't have any, I also used a basic flour, baking powder, milk and salt dumpling recipe instead. This recipe took me 30 min to make, which was wonderful because all I had was about an hour to find a recipe with ingredients I had on hand and completly make it...and well This was the It...Will definitly make this recipe again when in a pinch for time
Just one tweak, Instead of red sauce use white sauce
This definately took longer than 30 minutes (more like an hour total.) I used biscuits from scratch with whole wheat flour, one large chicken breast which I cut in small cubes and put in with the vegetables instead of after, and celery salt in place of the salt because I had no celery. Overall it was delicious and easy, and even the baby liked it! Next time I'm going to use more chicken stock because it was a little too dry.
I must admit this was the first time I'd made chicken and dumplings without the help of my grandmother... plus I only had sodium free chicken broth, no frozen peas, and no FRESH parsley... Also I made my dumplings from scrath, adding a bit of Itlaian Seasoning and substituting the warm water for cool/luke warm buttermilk (f0r flavor)... The finished product was ok on taste and textur...the chicken bits and dumplings weren't as tender as I would have liked but the veggies had just the right amt of crunch left to them...once I came back fofr a second taste the dumplings and chicken had cooled to warm...the flavor was a bit more intense versus the blandness I'd experienced on the first test...so I agree with the other lady...once you let the dish sit and let all the flavor meld... it tastes a whole lot better :) I recommend this for beginners cuz it was SO easy for me...took about 40-50 minutes cuz I was sharing the kitchen with my roommates at the time.
OMG, OMG, OMG!!!!! We BOTH LOVED this recipe! I omitted the potatoes, substituted 1/2 tsp oregano for the poultry seasoning and used a small can of biscuits, cut up. I'd be afraid to make it any other way since this was SOOOO good! Easy too!

It is very good. It doesn't taste like it's long-simmered, but it does taste home-made and delicious. I only cooked the chicken long enough to make and cook the biscuits, and it was perfectly done. Juicy chicken, but no pink. I used a couple chopped baby carrots with the vegetables. I did microwave the peas for 60 seconds--not quite done--because I didn't really trust them to be done by just putting them in the finished soup. They were so...frozen. However, they were perfect this way. I only wish it made more dumplings, but I don't know where they would have cooked as the cooking surface was pretty much covered with dumplings. I will make this again, I'm sure. The only drawback was that my vegetables stuck when I was sauteeing them.

Since posting this I used this as a filling for pot pie after removing the dumplings (that's what makes it creamy) and it was fantastic...I could eat this everyday!!!","datePublished":"December 05, 2006","itemReviewed":{"@type":"Thing","name":"30 Minute Chicken and Dumplings"},"reviewRating":{"@type":"Rating","worstRating":"1","ratingValue":5,"bestRating":"5"},"author":{"@type":"Person","name":"TGIF Girl Friday"}},{"@type":"Review","description":"Yummy, yummy. I used sugar snap peas and only used 1 carrot because that's all I had. I used garlic and cheese biscuit mix, 3/4 teaspoon pepper, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and old bay seasoning as the poultry seasoning. Delicious and homey and very easy, a definate keeper.\nUpdate - this time I used regular peas and both carrots, and discovered I like the snow peas a bit better. This time DH said it needed more dumplings, so maybe next time I'll try doubling the dumpling stuff.","datePublished":"November 19, 2006","itemReviewed":{"@type":"Thing","name":"30 Minute Chicken and Dumplings"},"reviewRating":{"@type":"Rating","worstRating":"1","ratingValue":5,"bestRating":"5"},"author":{"@type":"Person","name":"littleturtle"}},{"@type":"Review","description":"I can't believe I heven't reviewed this yet!

It took me longer than 30 minutes to prepare and cook- about 45. I don't chop veggies as fast as Rachel. I didn't have celery, so I used celery salt in lieu of salt. I used reduced fat Bisquik. Other than that, I followed the recipe including cooking times. I was really curious how chicken and dumplings in 30 mins would turn out. We did not like it right after cooking. The next day the leftovers were excellent! I guess the flavors needed to meld. I will make this often (and serve it the next day).

This was quick to make (faster than 30 minutes for sure). I used \"White Lily\" (Southern flour) Bisquick package to make up the 8 ounces (each envelope was 6 ounces, so I used almost 1 1/2 and added a little extra water. This made ample dumplings for the pot. I wanted to make sure they were cooked since this was my first time, so I left the lid on after cooking and let rest til dinner (15 minutes later). The flavor and texture is similar to a pot pie filling and the dumplings make it real homey tasting. My daughter was a little lukewarm about the dumplings (she was expecting an oriental dumpling), but the rest of us enjoyed (including teenaged son). This is a great recipe.

I cut my chicken into bite size pieces and I did use canned biscuits, and it came out fine. I cooked the meal for about 15 minutes after I put the chicken in, to be sure that it was done, then added the canned biscuits that I had pinched into pieces. Cooked for about 5 minutes, then stirred to thicken. It was yummy!!!!

Thanks

Just need the recipe!!!
Do you cook the chicken tenders first
It's a great recipe no matter how you make it, but there is just one problem. Once you cook the dumplings, they pretty much cover the top of the pot and you really can't stir in anything else without messing them up. I add whatever I'm going to add and thicken it all before putting in the dumplings, then it's all ready to spoon out when the dumplings are done. By the way, to make dumplings from a larger box of Bisquick, follow the recipe for biscuits but add a little more milk, enough so the dough is sticky, and drop them in the hot chicken mixture.
Liked all the reviews the contributor mentioned using canned biscuits and she’s right. My mother taught me to make it that way years ago. Just cut each biscuit into 4 pieces and drop them in no fuss no mess. My mother was a great cook who learned to cook smart. Enjoy!
I'll try any Chicken with Dumpling recipe and usually like or love it. Simple comfort food. This was okay. A little bland, so would add more seasoning and salt (or better-hot sauce) next time. Though I doubt I'll do again - too much chopping and preparing vegetables. But I had all the ingredients, so thought I'd give it a go. However, my biggest complaint with this is the dumpling part. I had Jiffy mix, but never used for dumplings and it didn't work for me. Followed directions to the letter, and they looked great when all was done, but as soon as time came to ladle and serve, they completely dissolved and as a result I lost half of the recipe's title. I've used Bisquick's dumpling recipe in past recipes and they always set firm and never dissolve. I recommend using Bisquick.
The Only reason this gets 4 stars is because it was a bit too runny for us. Maybe it was my own fault, but it just didn't quite thicken up...have to wait till the next day for that I guess. The taste was good, I added a bit of Rosemary and Thyme, and used corn instead of peas, because I didn't have any, I also used a basic flour, baking powder, milk and salt dumpling recipe instead. This recipe took me 30 min to make, which was wonderful because all I had was about an hour to find a recipe with ingredients I had on hand and completly make it...and well This was the It...Will definitly make this recipe again when in a pinch for time
Just one tweak, Instead of red sauce use white sauce
OMG, OMG, OMG!!!!! We BOTH LOVED this recipe! I omitted the potatoes, substituted 1/2 tsp oregano for the poultry seasoning and used a small can of biscuits, cut up. I'd be afraid to make it any other way since this was SOOOO good! Easy too!
