Ingredients

  • 1-1/2 cups 2% milk
  • 1-1/2 cups frozen mixed vegetables, thawed
  • 2-1/2 cups cubed cooked chicken
  • 1 can (10-3/4 ounces) condensed cream of chicken soup, undiluted
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon poultry seasoning
  • DUMPLINGS:
  • 1 cup biscuit/baking mix
  • 1/3 cup french-fried onions, coarsely chopped
  • 7 tablespoons 2% milk
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Directions

  1. In a Dutch oven, combine the first 6 ingredients; bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.
  2. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the biscuit mix, onions, milk and parsley just until moistened. Drop by heaping teaspoonfuls onto simmering stew. Cook, uncovered, for 10 minutes.
  3. Cover and simmer 10-12 minutes longer or until a toothpick inserted in a dumpling comes out clean (do not lift the cover while simmering).
