  • 2 (10.5 ounce) cans condensed cream of chicken soup
  • 3 (14 ounce) cans chicken broth
  • 3 cups shredded cooked chicken meat

Dumplings

  • 2 (10 ounce) cans refrigerated biscuit dough

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Gather all the ingredients and ensure the chicken is shredded and ready to use.
  2. Heat Soup Mixture: In a large saucepan over medium-high heat, stir together the condensed cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, and shredded cooked chicken until the mixture begins to simmer.
  3. Add Dumplings: Cut each refrigerated biscuit into quarters, then gently stir the biscuit pieces into the simmering soup mixture.
  4. Simmer: Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the saucepan, and let it simmer for 10 to 15 minutes or until the biscuit dough is cooked through and no longer doughy in the center.
  5. Serve: Once the dumplings are cooked, ladle the chicken and dumplings into bowls and enjoy the comforting meal immediately.

Notes

  • Use shredded rotisserie chicken or leftover cooked chicken to save time.
  • For thicker dumplings, you can reduce the amount of broth slightly.
  • Make sure to simmer covered to help the dumplings cook evenly.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave to avoid drying out the dumplings.
