Ingredients

Soup Ingredients

¼ cup butter half a stick
3 cups cooked chicken chopped or shredded
1 small yellow onion diced
2 celery sticks chopped
2 carrots chopped
1 large russet potato peeled and cubed
1 cup frozen peas
¼ cup all-purpose flour
6 cups low sodium chicken broth
1 cube chicken bouillon
1 Tablespoon garlic minced
1 dried bay leaf
1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
1 teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon pepper
1 cup heavy cream

Dumplings Ingredients:

2 cups Bisquick mix
⅔ cup whole milk

Instructions

In a large stock pot or Dutch oven melt the butter over medium heat. Add in the onion and sauté until soft and translucent.
Add celery and carrots then continue to sauté until they begin to soften (about 15-20 minutes), stirring often.
Add the garlic and continue to sauté until fragrant. Add the flour in and continuously stir for about 1 minute.
Add the broth, bouillon cube, bay leaf, dried thyme, salt, pepper, and potatoes to the pot and bring to boiling. Once boiling immediately reduce heat, and gently simmer until the potatoes are almost done (about 8 minutes).
Add chicken, peas and heavy cream and continue to simmer until potatoes are tender (about 2 minutes) and then remove the bay leaf.
Just before the potatoes are tender, mix the Bisquick and the milk in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Drop tablespoon-sized portions of the dough into the simmering soup, leaving space for the dumplings to expand.
Allow it to simmer, uncovered for 10 minutes, then cover and let simmer for an additional 10 minutes.
Remove from heat and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
