Chicken and Dumplings (Quicker)

By suewaynes

Ingredients

• Dumplings:
• 1-1/2 cups 2% milk
• 1-1/2 cups frozen mixed vegetables, thawed
• 2-1/2 cups cubed cooked chicken
• 1 can (10-3/4 ozs.) condensed cream of chicken soup, undiluted
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 teaspoon poultry seasoning
• 1 cup biscuit/baking mix
• 1/3 cup French-fried onions, coarsely chopped
• 7 tablespoons 2% milk
• 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley flakes

Preparation

Step 1

In a Dutch oven, combine the first six ingredients; bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the fiscuit mix, onions, milk and parsley just until moistened. Drop by heaping teaspoonfuls onto simmering stew. Cook, uncovered, for 10 minutes.

Cover and simmer 10-12 minutes longer or until a toothpick inserted in a dumpling comes out clean (do not lift the cover while simmering).
