Today's recipe is a family favorite and is soooo easy. Chicken and Dumplings is perfect comfort food for a chilly winter day. It brings up happy childhood memories for me, back to the days when my mom cooked up yummy stuff for us kids on a shoestring budget.
Chicken and Dumplings
2 cans Chicken Broth + 2 cps water
2 cans cream of chicken soup
grill 6-8 seasoned boneless skinless chicken thighsof course you can also do these in a skillet
mmm we love pepper
chop celery about 5 stalks
carrots about 2 cups 
add veggies to simmering soup and raise heat to high
add 1 bag frozen peas
season with garlic and herbs 
fresh ground black pepper 
cut grilled chicken into bite sized pieces

allow to cook for about 10 minutes (longer if chicken is not cooked all the way)
make dumplings using 2 1/2 cps Bisquick mix
season mix with lots of pepper and a little garlic salt
mix in 2/3 cup milk (makes a sticky biscuit texture)
Mmmmm so good! Serve it up with L-O-V-E!

Yummy I love Chicken and Dumplings. I have never made it though. J makes is look so easy! Thanks!
Help make a family very dear to my heart have a memorable Christmas. It only takes a stamp! http://www.three-peas.com/2008/12/operation-christmas-card.html
Thanks for tonights dinner.
Looks good - may have to make this one for dinner tonight. I know it will be a "diner" at my house now that my son is home from school.
When I plan for him to be with us for dinner - well something always comes up. When I decide its going to be pick your own leftover - he wants something and leftovers ISN'T it.
This looks pretty easy and fast, but still tasty.
Thanks for sharing. Looks like Jordan had fun too.
This looks so good! I have been wanting dumplings for awhile, my mom use to make them and it has been years! Maybe tonight!
mmmm...this is a family favorite in our place :) i love jordan, she is adorable :) :) what a sweet smile she has...!

That's how I make my Chicken 'n Dumplings! I leave the peas out though - eck! I think it's great that she is learning to cook. Nobody ever really taught me, I learned by watching my Grandmother. Knowing how to cook a good meal is a powerful skill!
I love love LOVE chicken and dumplings and can't wait to try this! This is my kind of comfort food :-)
Aw I remember eating this as a kid. I don't think I've had it since, but I bet aaron would love it. Anything with Bisquick is a friend of his.
Then again, anything with a vegetable is an enemy.
YUM
I don't normally use bisquick, but I will have to remember that tip in case I'm feeling lazy.
Chicken n Dumplings are on the menu for tomorrow night. I saved half the broth and half the chicken the last time I made it so all I need to do now is make the dumplins. I actually make a dough and roll mine out...it's a little more labor intensive but hubs appreciates it.
Oh my goodness, YUM! I wish my family ate this kind of stuff. Well, I wish they'd eat anything even SIMILAR to this! I LOVE chicken and dumplings, but it's so hard to make just a single serving, lol. I think I'll have to try to make a single anyway, though, 'cause this post makes me want some!
What a great lesson for her! I love chicken and dumplings. My favorite ones are the ones my mom makes from scratch. I'm going to have to get her to teach me someday, maybe sooner than I think.
I just wanted to thank you for the Christmas card! That was so nice that you thought of me! I'm sorry I haven't been by commenting more - home and work have me so swamped! You know how it is when bloggy has to take a back seat! Anyway, I was really touched by your card- even with all your followers and comments- you still thought of me! It made me feel so good! Thank you!
yummy!!! i love dumplings!!!
Yummy, comfort food! That is a great idea to teach your kid to cook. I'm haphazard at teaching mine to cook - I love that you are deliberate about it. I should do that too.
Her futer hubby will thank you someday...thank you for teaching her how to cook yummy meals! YAY!
Kudos to Jordan for a dinner well done! That looks so yummy! She will be an amazing cook for her own family! I hope all is going well with you, sorry it's been a bit since I have visited. I hope your family really enjoys the holidays!!
Chicken and dumplings are a winter fave in our house too! Although I'm super lazy and use frozen dumplings!
Minus out the celery and you had me had dumplings! YUUUUUMMMMY
Hey Jordan, I really like your outfit in this one. very cool.
Oh Gosh, that looks good. Too bad, I am the only one in the family that likes soup. Except my daughter, but her's is Campbells.
Very nice! Isn't it great when they start earning their keep?
I've grown to love your Cooking with Jordan posts. I think it's wonderful that you're teaching her skills of how to cook for herself and her own family someday, plus, she's having fun now and sharing the knowledge! My daughter loves to cook too and loves to try these recipes! She doesn't think she would like chicken and dumplings, though. I want her to make this anyway and see!!!
CUTE headband Jordan! That looks so yummy! (The chicken & dumplings..not the headband!)
Mmmmmm that looks wonderful!
Your daughter has an absolutely awesome smile! She really reminds me of one of the girls who I grew up with. She was really a beautiful soul and had this smile that lit up her entire face.
I can't recall if it was during Mia Maids or Laurels year, but her dad was transferred to London and we lost touch with her. I've often thought about her and after seeing pics of your daughter she was the first person that came to mind!
Thanks for sharing such great pics.
This looks super delicious! I'm excited to try it on our next snowy day (probably tomorrow).
send her over @ 6 for cooking!!! fab!
Hey Jordan, your chicken and dumplings look so good that I sent grandpa to the store for bisquick and we are having it for dinner tomorrow night.
Love you,
grandma lynn

I love chicken and dumplings. And this week has been cold and wet here! I just wanted to know what time to come over for some leftovers of it? She made it look way to easy. I would never be able to make them. Yummy!
Yum-O...we'll be trying that one!
Wow! What an amazing cook you have there :-)
WOW!!! Yummm-ohhhh!!!!
