Love this! Made it a month or so back and am making it again tonight for my fiance who is sick with a cold! I had to make the same subs as Cookin’ Army Wife but it came out perfectly!

Keeper! Yummy, yummy. Ok, so I did have to make a few subs based on my pantry inventory…cream of mushroom instead of cream of chicken AND poultry seasoning instead of herbs de..whatever! But it was absolutely fabulous – dumplings made just the right amount and were rollable (I know it’s not a word, but they were!) and consistency was perfect. I even found myself going back to the kitchen to eat it cold! Thanks for sharing.

This was good, but it was way too rich for me. There was too much dough for the pot. My dough was very sticky and I could not roll them in my hand as the recipe suggested. I would halve the entire dumpling portion of the recipe.

Yu-hum! I was a little afraid that I’d mess up the dumplings, so I made your yeast rolls instead. They were so big and fluffy- we love them! We also loved this soup, even without dumplings! I was shocked how much chicken there was once I shredded it all- yum! Way better than restaurant soup. I bought herbs de p. for this recipe and really liked the flavor- I was glad. I hate when I make things and they are not flavorful- this was perfect. Try it, you’ll like it!

What a great recipe! It met my “not too fussy” requirements and tasted delicious! My DH asked for Chicken and Dumplings earlier in the week and since I’d never made them before, I headed over to the Tasty Kitchen to see what I could find! The only change I made was to use left over rotisserie chicken that I had already shredded instead of the 3 chicken breasts. DH was happy and the kids ate it…which makes it a success all around! Thanks!

Good recipe, I omitted the COC soup and cornstarch-the dumplings thickened up the broth on their own. My dumplings were pretty sticky, I just scooped them out and dropped them in by the spoonful! I also boiled a whole chicken instead of using just the breast. Thanks for sharing.

This was absolutely delicious and very easy to make! I can’t wait to finish off the leftovers for lunch!

This is really good and easy to make! I didn’t have the problem with the dumplings being runny so they worked out well for me.

Sooo good and so easy to make. Just what I was looking for. Have a question about the dumplings, however. It says to “roll them with your hands” but they were so runny (for lack of a better term) that I ended up adding a bit more flour and then just spooning them into the broth. Positive I used the correct amount of flour called for. Also, I covered the pot while cooking down so it wouldn’t boil down too much. We loved it.

I just made this for a cold and snowy day (our one and only snowy day…)and it was delish! My only issue and it’s an issue for any batch of C & D that I make, is I lose many of the dumplings while it’s cooking. It becomes the gravy. Any suggestions? Overall, this was a very tasty pot of C & D. Thanks for sharing this with us.
