Directions:

  1. Place chicken broth, cooked chicken (add more for a really hearty meal!) and poultry seasoning in a large dutch oven. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Bring to a boil, then turn down to medium low. Taste the broth after 5 minutes and see if you need more poultry seasoning. It really depends on how your chicken was cooked initially.
  3. While the chicken is simmering in the broth, place the flour in the center of a plate.
  4. Open the biscuits (make sure they are not the flaky kind - more the homestyle or buttermilk type), and flatten each one to about 1/4 to 1/8 inch thick. Then dredge the biscuits through the flour. This will thicken your broth and make for a really good gravy for your chicken and dumplings. You might want to add some salt and pepper and poultry seasoning to your flour. It all depends on how your chicken was initially seasoned.
  5. Make sure your chicken and broth is boiling. If not, turn the heat up on your stove until it boils.
  6. Then take each biscuit and tear into bite size pieces and drop into the broth. Stir it occasionally so that the pieces do not stick together.
  7. Once all the biscuits are torn up and are placed in the dutch oven, lower the heat to a simmer. Cook for about 15 minutes, or until the dumplings are tender. Enjoy!
