Bisquick Chicken and Dumplings Recipe

When Bisquick was first introduced into store shelves in 1931, it was mostly used for baking biscuits. Sold by General Mills, the manufacturers mention that the discovery of Bisquick happened over a chance meeting of one of their sales executives with a train dining car chef.

The sales executive who was on a business trip created Bisquick as soon as he returned from his trip. This biscuit pre-mix quickly became a crowd favorite and was soon used for preparing a range of food delicacies like pizza dough, pancakes, dumplings, and cookies.

Today’s recipe will use the Bisquick pre-mix for creating delicious dumplings. For the soup, I have used chicken along with frozen peas and carrots. But you can add mix veggies and create a more colorful soup too. I like my chicken and dumplings with fewer veggies and more dumplings.

The soup can also be seasoned with paprika for an added flavor. This may kill the simple taste of the cream of chicken soup, but it suits taste buds which lean towards spicy foods.

Your chicken and dumplings will ideally be ready in 30 minutes, which makes it a perfect dinner time recipe, especially when you want to whip up something quickly. The whole recipe is very easy and does not deal with lots of chopping and cutting either.
