directions

  • In a 1 1/2 qt nonstick saucepan, stir together the flour, sage, thyme and pepper. Stir until mixture begins to brown, watching carefully so the flour doesn't burn.
  • Whisk in the broth and onion flakes, heat to boiling over medium heat, stirring constantly; stir in the vegetables and chicken, bring to a boil.
  • In a small dish, mix together the biscuit mix, chopped onion and milk until well moistened; drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto boiling stew; reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered for 10 minutes.
  • Cover and simmer an additional 10 minutes; sprinkle with dried parsley the last few minutes of cooking.

  1. Super fast and simple recipe to make. I doubled the stew and used Recipe #69051 for the bisquick. We all enjoyed this very much, thank you for posting. Made for Recipe Swap #64 - May 2012...Group 5 - Beetroot
     
  2. Very nice & very filling ~ I really enjoyed this tasty meal! And although I did add more meat than listed (used 2 chicken breast halves) it was just right for 2 of us, & I'm making it again this evening to take to some neighbors! Thanks for sharing! [Made & reviewed for one of my partners in the Aus/NZ Recipe Swap #17]
     
  3. Thank you so much for the recipe! This is the first time I've been able to successfully make dumplings like my mom does (or dumplings at all, really). And that's even after I accidentally added quite a bit too much milk. The soup came together very quickly and easily from some frozen shredded turkey I had leftover from Thanksgiving, a can of mixed vegetables, and a medium potato. Instead of using Bisquick, I just mixed together some self-rising flour and margarine. I will definitely be keeping this around and coming back to it whenever I want to re-create the soup and dumplings I grew up on!
     
  4. I have to say that this is the easiest chicken and dumplings I have ever made. I used frozen mixted vegetables for soup which contained green beans, corn, carrots and potatoes. The stew was delicious and the dumplings were light and fluffy. This made the perfect amount for two servings. Thanks for another great dish, Paula. Made for Jan. 2011 Aus/NZ Swap.
     
  5. A very nice,great tasting "homey" kind of meal. We enjoyed this SO much!! I tasted it when it was finished, decided my DH would REALLY like it, and had to make another batch!! He LOVED it!! Thank you so much b/c this is really easy but tastes like it took all day. Made for the French forum herb of the month-thyme.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I came to this site in March of 2004. It was then called Recipezaar. This site was the first on-line site that I ever joined. I first popped in 2003 while searching for a Peach Cobbler Recipe. In March of 2004, DH was having shoulder surgery and I was looking for a Split Pea Soup. Once again I found myself on Zaar as it came to be called. Over the years I hung out and learned from some of the best home cooks in the country, I posted over 700 recipes on the site, reviewed over 3500 recipes and posted over 3000 food photos. Over the next 10 years the site made many changes and in 2010 it was sold to to Food Network and became Food.com. Until last year we played games, talked and shared with one another. As a result of the community and the relationships I built I got to meet some wonderful people from all over the country. I also have a great number of friends that I have never meet face to face. Some of us still hang out at various places across the net. Zaar was more than a cooking community. It was an internet community of friendship. Life is an adventure ever changing.
