CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS
My mom made a similar recipe for this comforting dish, and I still remember the wonderful aroma of chicken and dumplings cooking throughout the house. She didn't make it often, but when she did, what a treat. I especially loved the light, tender dumplings, which is still my most favorite part of this dish. (In a pinch, Bisquick dumplings are also very good). For those of you, like my good friend Cindy, who like a more Southern style of dumpling (heavier, chewier), the recipe is at the bottom. This recipe is from Steph's Country Kitchen Goodness. This is my favorite website for recipes.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees, with rack placed in the center of the oven.
- In a large plastic bag combine 1/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons of flour, seasoned salt, cajun seasoning, black pepper and cayenne (if using). Close up bag and shake to combine. *Note if you are feeding this to young children who do not like spice, you might wish to omit the cayenne and the cajun seasoning.
- Season the chicken pieces using the additional 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper , before dredging the chicken in the flour.
- Dredge the chicken in the flour, shaking off excess. Reserve any of the remaining flour for making the rue later.
- Heat a deep ovenproof pot like a Dutch oven, over medium heat. Once the pot is hot, add 2 teaspoons of olive oil. Brown the chicken on both sides and transfer to a plate and set aside. *NOTE: In order to use less oil in browning, place the lid over the pan while the chicken is browning. This will help to trap some of the steam and keep things moist without the addition of more oil. But keep a watchful eye that your chicken doesn't burn.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and add 1 teaspoon of oil, the mushrooms (if using) and a pinch of salt to season. Place the lid on the pot to help cook the mushrooms without the need for additional oil. Cook for about 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Once the mushrooms have begun to brown, add the last teaspoon of oil, carrots, celery and onion. Sweat the vegetables for 5 minutes, again covering the pot with a lid.
- Deglaze the pan with the brandy and simmer until it is nearly evaporated.
- Stir in the reserved flour to coat the vegetables. Cook and stir for one to two minutes. The vegetable will look pasty.
- While stirring, slowly add the broth. As the broth is added to the pot, it will combine with the floured vegetables and begin to make a gravy.
- Once all of the broth has been added mix in the potatoes.
- Cover the pot and place in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile blend all the dry ingredients for the dumplings in a mixing bowl.
- In a microwaveable container, heat the milk and butter just until the butter melts, about 25 seconds on high power.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the milk mixture. Gently fold the ingredients together just until combined. If the mixture seems too dry, add an additional teaspoon of milk.
- Remove the pot from the oven and return all of the chicken, lemon juice, thyme and sage to the pot. Stir briefly to incorporate the ingredients.
- Using a tablespoon gently scoop out 4 dumplings of equal portion (about 1 1/2 tablespoons each). Place the balls of dough on the surface of the gravy.
- Cover and place the pot back into the oven for another 20 minutes.
- Remove the pot from the oven and serve.
- Garnish with minced parsley. (Optional)

CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS
This is the very best Chicken and Dumplings recipe to use when you want to create a warm, cozy feast for your family. What makes this version of classic Chicken and Dumplings extra delicious is its long and slow simmer time.

And using Bisquick™ original mix to make quick dumplings not only saves time but also produces light, fluffy dumplings for the topping. While this Chicken and Dumplings recipe will take about three hours to cook, everything comes together in a single Dutch oven, meaning this one-pot meal will require little cleanup afterwards.
