Ingredients

3	slices bacon
3	large potatoes, peeled and diced
1	onion, diced
4	skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - diced
3	cups chicken broth
1	teaspoon poultry seasoning
	salt and pepper to taste
1	(15.25 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained and rinsed
3	cups half-and-half
1½	cups biscuit mix
1	cup milk

Directions

Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain, crumble and set aside; reserve bacon drippings in skillet.

Add potatoes, onion and chicken to bacon drippings and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Pour in chicken broth; season with poultry seasoning, salt and pepper. Stir in corn, and simmer all together for 15 minutes.
Pour in half-and-half and bring to a boil; add crumbled bacon.

In a medium bowl, combine biscuit mix with milk and mix well (dough should be thick). Drop tablespoon sizes of dough into boiling mixture; reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes uncovered, then another 10 minutes covered.

(Note: Do not stir while simmering, or dumplings will break apart). Serve hot.
