I promise, you will love it like the thousands of others who have given this recipe 5 stars over the years!<\/p>\n<p>Years and years ago, I used to make my chicken and dumplings recipe with canned refrigerated biscuits.

Cook for 5 minutes, until vegetables being to wilt.\u00a0Add garlic and cook for 1 minute more.<\/li>\n<li id=\"mv_create_15_3\">Add flour and stir to combine. Cook for 1 minute.<\/li>\n<li id=\"mv_create_15_4\">Add evaporated milk and chicken stock and quickly stir to combine.<\/li>\n<li id=\"mv_create_15_5\">Bring to a boil and add chicken, thyme, black pepper and salt.\u00a0Let soup simmer, uncovered, while you make dumplings.<\/li>\n<li id=\"mv_create_15_6\">In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, pepper, salt and thyme. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour the milk and butter into the center of it.<\/li>\n<li id=\"mv_create_15_7\">Using a wooden spoon (or rubber spatula), stir together until dough ball forms. If your dough seems too dry, you can add an extra tablespoon of milk.<\/li>\n<li id=\"mv_create_15_8\">Using a large** sized cookie scoop, scoop dough and drop directly into the simmering soup. Place them around the pot, not all in the same place.<\/li>\n<li id=\"mv_create_15_9\">Once all dumplings have been added, gently press them down so the soup runs over just the tops of them.<\/li>\n<li id=\"mv_create_15_10\">Place the lid on your pot and lower the heat a little to a low simmer (you don\u2019t want the bottom of the soup to burn but also want the soup to still be simmering to cook the dumplings).<\/li>\n<li id=\"mv_create_15_11\">Cook for 15 minutes, gently stir the soup\/dumplings and then cut one dumpling in half to make sure they are cooked through.<\/li>\n<li id=\"mv_create_15_12\">If the dumplings are cooked through, serve hot! If not, cook an additional 2-3 minutes and check again.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This creamy\u00a0Homemade Chicken and Dumplings\u00a0recipe is loaded with flavor and big fluffy dumplings that are made from scratch in just minutes!
