What is a good chicken dumpling recipe?

I want to cook chicken dumplings but I have never done it before. I have 1 chicken and lots of potatoes so something along that line would work.


What is a good chicken dumpling recipe?
Chicken Dumpling Recipe


Ingredients


8 boneless, skinless chicken breasts


salt and pepper to taste


Box of Bisquick


Milk


Flour


1/2 cup Milk


2 or 3 tsp. butter





Preparation


Place chicken breasts in a large soup pot and cover with water (fill the pot about half full). Add salt and pepper to taste. Cook over medium-high heat until chicken is done. Remove chicken and cut into bite sized pieces. Place chicken pieces back in broth. Simmer chicken and broth on low while making dumplings. Using the Bisquick and milk, prepare as much dumpling mix as you want (as many as your pot will hold) according to package instructions. Coat your hands with flour, sprinkle a little flour on top of the dumpling mix, and roll dumplings into 1 inch balls. Add a little more flour when dumpling mix begins to get too sticky to roll. When you're almost finished rolling the dumplings, turn up the heat under the chicken and broth and bring to a slow boil. Drop dumplings into boiling broth. Make sure they submerge. They'll pop back up, but you need to make sure they get totally wet. Once all dumplings are in the broth, add 1/2 cup milk and 2 or 3 teaspoons butter and poke all the dumplings down again. Do not stir before the dumplings are cooked, because it will tear them up. Simmer for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally but gently (if all dumplings appear to be cooked) to make sure chicken doesn't stick to bottom of pot.

Bring first 3 ingredients to a boil in a Dutch oven; cover, reduce heat, and simmer 30 to 35 minutes or until chicken is tender. Remove chicken, reserving broth in Dutch oven; let chicken cool. Bone and cut chicken into bite-size pieces.


Place biscuits on a floured surface; roll or pat to 1/8-inch thickness. Cut biscuits into thirds.


Bring broth to a boil. Drop biscuits, 1 at a time, into boiling broth; add chicken. Cook, stirring occasionally, 10 minutes.











Quick Tip: Substitute 6 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth for water; use 3 cups chopped cooked chicken.

















4 servings



dumplings





2 eggs


1/2 cup milk


1 tsp.salt


1/4 th tsp pepper


1 1/2 cups flour,and if it needs to be thicker,add more flour,I boil water in a separate kettle to drop my dumplings in to cook,so try one and if it stays together drop the rest,or if it falls apart add flour.
Boil chicken until falling off bone. Take out and let cool in bowl. add a can of chicken broth or 2 cups of water to the chicken water. Add carrots, onion and diced potatoes.(about 4 or 5). When chicken is cooled down shred and add to pot.throw away skin. Mix bisquit as directions on box. Or use bisquit in tube and cut into quarters. Add to chicken pot. The broth will thicken as it cooks. I also add peas at the end
