Ingredients

• 1 cut-up whole chicken (3 to 3 1/2 lb)
• 3 small carrots, sliced
• 1 small onion, sliced
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley or 2 teaspoons parsley flakes
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon pepper
• 5 cups water
• 2 1/4 cups Original Bisquick® mix
• 3/4 cup milk
• 2 ounces Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, grated
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Preparation

Step 1

Place chicken and onion in Dutch oven or large pot. Cover with water. Add peppercorn and some fresh chopped parsley if desired. Simmer until chicken is cooked and broth is rich and reduced, 2-4 hours. Remove chicken, and strain the stock. Let cool. Remove chicken from bones, shred and discard bones and skin. Add chicken and carrots to the broth. Simmer 15 minutes.

Combine Bisquick, milk, cheese and garlic powder. Mix well with a fork. Drop forkfuls of dough into simmering broth, filling in the spaces between dumplings as you work. Dumplings will float.

Cook uncovered for 10 minutes. Cover and cook another 10-15 minutes until dumplings are thoroughly cooked,
