Recipe of the day (or week)

I loved this recipe ad Jose did too! Its super easy and great for an easy home cooked meal. (I didn't use Tarragon or any spice for the biscuits.)


Skillet Chicken and Dumplings
A skillet makes quick work of scrumptious chicken and dumplings featuring all-white-meat chicken breasts.

Prep Time:30 min
Start to Finish:50 min
Makes:4 servings





Chicken and Vegetables
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 1 1/4 lb)
2 cans (10 3/4 oz each) condensed 98% fat-free cream of chicken soup
1 bag (1 lb) frozen stir-fry vegetables (or any vegi mix you like)


Tarragon Dumplings
1 cup Original Bisquick® mix
1/3 cup milk
1/4 teaspoon dried tarragon leaves

1. In 10-inch skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Cook chicken in oil about 5 minutes, turning once, until chicken begins to brown.

2. Stir in soup and frozen vegetables. Heat to boiling, stirring frequently.

3. In small bowl, stir all dumpling ingredients until soft dough forms. Drop by 4 spoonfuls onto boiling chicken mixture. Reduce heat. Cook uncovered 10 minutes. Cover and cook 10 minutes.

Substitution
You can use your favorite 1-pound bag of Green Giant® frozen vegetables instead of the stir-fry vegetables.

Success
To prevent dumplings from falling apart, drop dough onto chicken or vegetables rather than directly into liquid or gravy. If dough is dropped into liquid, the simmering action may force the dough apart.

Substitution
Don't like tarragon? Try dried basil or marjoram leaves or poultry seasoning instead of the tarragon for a flavor twist on these savory dumplings.
