Ingredients
12 oz. chicken breast1- 32oz. box of chicken broth4 cups of water1 tsp seasoned salt1 tsp ground black pepper1 can (of 8) Pillsbury Grands Reduced Fat Buttermilk Homestyle Biscuits2 cups of frozen peas and carrots
Directions
Makes 10 HEARTY servings. Each serving consists of 1 cup of dumplings, chicken & veggies along with 1 extra cup of broth.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


In a large stock pot combine chicken broth, water, chicken breasts, seasoned salt and black pepper. Poached the chicken breasts for approximately 10 -15 minutes or until cooked through.



As chicken is cooking take each biscuit and flatten it with slightly with your hand. Cut each biscuit into 8 tiny triangles. Set aside.



When chicken breasts are done remove them from broth and set aside.


Add frozen peas and carrots to broth and bring back up to a boil.


When broth is boiling slowly add each biscuit triangle to the broth. They will float until they start to cook. Simmer dumpling uncovered for approximately 25 - 30 minutes. As dumplings are cooking shred the poached chicken and return to the pot. You will want to be sure and stir the pot occasionally because as the dumplings cook they will start to settle at the bottom and you won't want them to stick.
