Ingredients
Chicken breasts
3-4 (large, cooked and shredded)
Bisquick
2 cups (for dumpling mixture)
Milk
3/4 cup (for dumpling mixture)
Condensed cream of chicken soup
1 (26 ounce) can (family size)
Condensed golden mushroom soup
1 (10 ounce) can (family size)
Instructions
1
In a large pot, bring water to a boil and add the chicken breasts. Cook until fully cooked through, approximately 15-20 minutes. Once cooked, remove chicken from the pot and let it cool slightly, then shred it using forks or your hands.
2
In the same pot (draining excess water if necessary), combine the condensed cream of chicken soup and the golden mushroom soup. Add water according to the directions on the soup cans and bring the mixture to a heavy boil, stirring occasionally.
3
While the soup is heating, prepare the dumpling mixture in a separate bowl. Combine the Bisquick and milk according to the package instructions for dumplings, stirring until just combined.
4
Once the soup is boiling, add in the shredded chicken and stir to combine. Drop large spoonfuls of the dumpling mixture directly into the boiling soup, making sure there is enough space between them as they will expand while cooking.
5
Reduce the heat to a gentle simmer and cover the pot. Allow the dumplings to cook for an additional 5-10 minutes until they are fluffy and cooked through in the center. Be careful not to overcook them to avoid a doughy texture.
6
After cooking, taste the broth and add freshly cracked pepper to your liking before serving warm.
