Ingredients

Directions

Step #1 Put chicken & celery In a large-ish pot & cover with water.
Step #2 Bring to a boil.
Step #3 Cook chicken thoroughly.
Step #4 Once chicken is done remove chicken from pot & let cool on a plate.
Step #5 Set aside.
Step #6 Do not throw away broth--it will be used later.
Step #7 Add cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, salt & pepper to pot; stir.
Step #8 Cook on medium-high heat.
Step #9 Slice chicken breasts like you would a turkey (thinly).
Step #10 It will come apart once it's added back to the pot.
Step #11 Add back to pot.
Step #12 Bring to boil.
Step #13 With a rolling pin, roll out each biscuit & cut into fourths.
Step #14 (For smaller dumplings, cut them smaller).
Step #15 I like mine medium size, so fourths work for me.
Step #16 Once you’re done, it's time to add them to the pot.
Step #17 Just drop them in one at a time, make sure to stir often.
Step #18 They tend to stick if they aren't stirred.
Step #19 They will swell after they are first added, but they will go back down to normal size after a few mins.
Step #20 Let them boil for 10 mins, then simmer on medium-low for about 15 mins; cover.
Step #21 Continue to stir often.
Step #22 Dumplings are done when the center of the dumpling is slightly darker than the outside.
