\nINSTRUCTIONS<\/h2>\n
\nIn a large bowl combine water and better than bouillon to make chicken broth. Place in the microwave for 3 minutes. Remove and stir well. Set aside.
\nIn a large stock pot over medium heat, add carrots, celery, onion, and 4 tbsp butter. Stir well to combine. Let cook for 10 minutes, stirring often to ensure that the onions don\u2019t burn.
\nAdd \u00bd cup flour and stir to combine. Add chicken broth and bring to a boil.
\nAdd the shredded chicken, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and milk. Stir well. Turn temperature to low and let simmer while making the dumplings mixture.<\/p>\n
\nIn a separate bowl, add the seasonings to the Bisquick and gently toss to incorporate.
\nDrizzle the milk into the bisquick flour and gently stir to incorporate the liquid. DO NOT OVERMIX. Let the batter rest for 1-2 minutes.
\nUsing a 1 1\/2 tablespoon (1.5 inch) cookie scoop, gently drop the Bisquick batter *leaving space between each dumpling because they will expand in size as they cook* into the simmering chicken and vegetables. Cover the pot with a lid and allow the dumplings to simmer on low heat for 15 minutes.
\nVery carefully turn over each dumpling in the pot (being careful not to break them apart) and continue to cook, uncovered, for an additional 2-3 minutes.
\nServe and enjoy. Optional to garnish with a little chopped parsley. This yields 12 dumplings.<\/p>\n
\nTIP: Be sure to leave the pot covered during this time to let the steam do it\u2019s thing and make the dumplings fluffy! You can check if the dumplings are done by inserting a toothpick into the middle. Overcooked dumplings will start to break apart, so watch closely at the end.<\/p>\n\n
