How To Make fast & easy chicken and dumplings

• Step 1
  Place above soup, broth and water in large 4 to 6 quart pan and stir to combine.
• Step 2
  Add chicken and diced onion, if using. Stir.
• Step 3
  Cook on top of stove at medium low setting until it comes to a low boil. Cook approximately another 20 minutes. Stir occasionally.
• Step 4
  Add dumplings or noodles.
• Step 5
  I frequently make the Bisquick dumplings and that only takes about 20 minutes more to cook (follow directions on box for cooking dumplings).
• Step 6
  If you add diced onion, cook until translucent and then add the dumplings or noodles.
• Step 7
  If you are in a big hurry get 2 cans of cheap biscuits, cut each biscuit in fourths, drop them in broth and follow instructions above.
• Step 8
  For a change try Reames frozen egg noodles instead of the dumplings. Mom loves this over mashed potatoes. Really good comfort food.
• Step 9
  You can also use leftover baked chicken or leftover deli chicken instead of canned.
• Step 10
  Easily doubles or triples.
