Servings          
Original recipe makes 10 Servings
8 chicken breasts; Boneless and skinless
salt and pepper; To taste
All purpose seasoning; Season to taste
onion powder
1 Bay leaf
boxBisquick
Milk
Flour
1/2 cupMilk
3 teaspoonButter

Chicken and Dumplings Preparation

Place chicken breasts in a large soup pot and cover with water (fill pot about half full). Add salt and pepper, onion powder and all purpose seasoning to taste. Cook over medium-high heat until chicken is done. DO NOT dump water out of pot, as this is your broth. Remove chicken and cut into bite size pieces. Place chicken pieces back in broth. Simmer chicken and broth on low while making dumplings.

Using the Bisquick and milk, prepare as much dumpling mix as you want (as many as your pot will hold) according to package instructions. Coat your hands with flour, sprinkle a little four on top of the dumpling mix and roll dumplings into 1 inch balls. Add a little more flour when dumpling mix begins to get too sticky to roll. When you?re almost finished rolling the dumplings, turn up the heat under the chicken and broth and bring to a slow boil. Drop dumplings into boiling broth. Make sure they submerge. They'll pop back up, but you need to make sure they get totally wet. Once all dumplings are in the broth, add 1/2 cup of milk and 3 teaspoons of butter and poke all the dumplings down again. Add all purpose seasoning or salt and pepper over dumplings. Do not stir before the dumplings are cooked, because it will tear them up. Simmer for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally but gently (if all dumplings appear to be cooked) to make sure chicken doesn't stick to the bottom of the pot.

NOTE - If you use a while chicken, after removing the chicken from the broth, pour the broth through a strainer into a separate bowl to remove bits of fat and foam that have accumulated during cooking. Pour strained broth back into soup pot. Remove skin from chicken and pull chicken from the bone, then cut chicken into bite size pieces and put them back in the broth. Continue wit the dumpling instructions as above.
