Hi Kevin This is exactly how my mother prepared chicken and dumplings. She learned from her mother who was from Oklahoma. She moved to Southern California and married my father and I was born and raised in California. All of the internet shows chicken and dumplings with a noodle like dumplings that you described. But these Bisquick dumplings is what I love.
Grew up and still live in central Indiana. I was so HAPPY to see you bring out the Bisquick!! So often you use far to many special products that I just don't use. I'm 77 and grew up with this same method of "fluffy" dumplings. As a young adult at a restaurant I ordered the chicken and dumplings and was exasperated when I got these large wide noodles - no dumplings!! I used to cook whole chicken and also cooked the bones from leftover turkey to make broth. But my cooking has gone to the much simpler way of getting the job done. I use store bought rotisserie chicken and cans of broth, but it is still good to me. Thank you so much for taking me back to the "right" way to do it!!!
Thank you, Kevin, for using Bisquick for your dumplings!! My grandmother, who was from the Midwest, taught me how to make chicken and dumplings when I was a teenager. Throughout the years I've tried other recipes for the dumplings but nothing compared to her Bisquick dumplings. I am now in my 50s, having grown up in the American southwest. Last year my eldest grandson asked me to teach him how to make 'Gommy's' chicken and dumplings. I taught him the same recipe that I was taught, using Bisquick dumplings. I think that recipes are a great family tradition and I'm so grateful to have the privilege to impart at least one of them to the next generation!
My grandmother was from a family in New Jersey. She made her chicken and dumplings with those exact vegetables and also with bisquick ! It was my dads favorite dish! Today would have been his 96 th Birthday so its perfect that TH-cam showed me this video this morning! I will be making this dish to honor him today! Thanks for great content!!
For your subscribers should they want an optional recipe instead here is my mom’s recipe. 1 cup - Flour, 3 Tsp Baking Powder, 1/4 Tsp - salt, 1 Tbsp oil and 3/4 cup milk and stir everything together. During last 10 minutes of cooking drop by spoonful into pot, cover and keep lid on. Once 10 minutes are up the dumplings are done.
Thank you deebrake, I live in Australia so some of Kevins ingredients I can't buy here,(but we are slowly catching up😊), thank you for your dumpling recipe.
I’m Scottish and had never heard of chicken and dumplings until I married my American husband, but we used to have what we called dough balls in stews or minced beef and I loved them. I’ve never cooked chicken and dumplings before, but after watching this vlog, I’m definitely going to try them. The only thing is, I live in Belize now and don’t know whether I’ll be able to find Bisquik so I’ll have to risk the flour method! Thank you once again, Kevin.
Hi, Kevin! I'm from West Virginia, and chicken and dumplings is a dish my family and friends love for me to make when having small dinner parties in my home. I boil chicken tenderloins in well-salted water until they are fall-apart tender, remove them to the side. I add about a tablespoon of chicken-flavored Better Than Bouillon, along with a family-sized can of Cream of Chicken soup and a lot of black pepper, a stick of butter and some evaporated milk and/or regular milk. While this is coming to a boil, I mix up self-rising flour and buttermilk to make a biscuit dough and simply drop them in by large breaking spoonfuls. Pepper them again, cover and cook about 10 minutes; then, I very gently turn them in the hot gravy and let them cook about 5 or 10 minutes. The dough creates the thickening needed. They are delicious! I know yours are wonderful, with the vegetables and thyme! I save those things for my chicken noodle soup! God bless!
Kevin🙌🙌💗 I Absolutely Love Your Channel!! I Love All your Videos..& your Complete Calmness in your Kitchen!! You are So organized & make everything So easy to do.. & Fun!! You’re definitely an “inspiration!” Love your personality too!! You’re the Best!! Thank you!!🥰🙌🙌💗👏👏👏🌟🌟🌟
Good day Kevin, I'm from Ontario Canada, I used to love my mom's chicken and dumplings. She used to make it with wood rabbits and partridge we were very poor so we ate what we could kill. But this was her dimpling recipe it's very light and simple also: 1 cup of sifted flour , 2 teaspoon baking powder, 1\2 teaspoon salt, 1 tbsp of light oil, sprig parsley, minced and about 1\2 cup milk. My mother told me to mix with a knife, she would say to me " cut into it with the knife" that's what I did and still do. Drop by tablespoons in the pot and close your lid and DO NOT OPEN THE LID UNTIL 20 MINUTES LATER. ENJOY !!!
Hi poochyface1 from Ontario. I copied your recipe for dumplings as in the video Kevin used Bisquik. I live in South Africa and we don't have Bisquik here. Never heard of it before ! So chuffed that your recipe is a good substitute for Bisquik & I am going to try it. Stay well.
Love Bisquick dumplings. Try cooking uncovered for 20 minutes and then covered for 20 minutes. Will result in an even fluffier dumpling. And for a quicker prep time try adding just grated carrots, onion powder, and good dash or two of poultry seasoning. Sometimes we add a bit of granulated chicken bouillon to the dumpling batter. ❤ from the Pacific NW!!!
Nope, from Georgia and never heard of putting vegetables in chicken and dumplings. The focus in that dish when my mother cooked it was the dumplings. She always made her own dumplings from scratch and they were delicious. Veggies were always side dishes. This looks absolutely mouthwatering, though! Looks so good!
I see this is two years old, hope you're still reading comments. I grew up in Georgia, live in Alabama now, and make chicken and dumplings with Bisquik just like you did! But you're right, no vegetables. I might try the vegetables sometime because yours looked delicious. I add a couple of cans of cream of chicken soup to the gravy before adding the bisquik dumplings.. I just discovered you a few weeks ago and love your videos!
Hi Kevin, Minnesotan here, my grandmother made Bisquik drop dumplings and it was my childhood favorite. They still are! It was one of the first recipes I made, as my moving out of my parent's house coincided unfortunately with my grandmother's death. I think of her every time I make them. One time when I was making them, I discovered that I was out of the Bisquik mix, so I made my own with flour, salt, baking powder and cold butter worked in with a pastry cutter. They were so good that I stopped buying Bisquik! I use sage in my stew instead of thyme, and put a dash of powdered, dry sage in the dumplings. We have some leftover rotisserie chicken in the fridge, so it's chicken and dumplings, tonight! Thanks for another great vid!
In the video, I meant to say that Bisquick makes the best dumplings (not "biscuits.") Like you, I make my own biscuits! Your sage-perfumed dumplings sound wonderful!
That brings back wonderful memories. Just how my Mother made them back in the forties, and how we still make them for the 3 generations today. Originally we are from the Midwest, but for the past 6 decade we are here in the Pacific NW. (Incidentally, We bake the dumplings covered for 15 minutes for a bit drier and lighter dumpling).
Hi Kevin, I really like the way you cook and explain the process. I don't know who makes it more enjoyable, to be honest. You are really fun to watch. Plus, I can taste what you're doing and smell it! How did you do "smellavision?" Darn good! Logical. Fun to follow. You have talent. You are not irritating like other cooks are. I like your realism! You are real. Once again: Talented. Thank you.!
Good Friday morning Kevin. Well done Well done! I was so glad to see you add some fresh lemon juice. As I previously mentioned, I soak my whole chicken in a huge pan of lemon juice and water and then proceed with my recipe. Sometimes I thinly slice a lemon, slather the slices with pesto and slide them under the chicken skin before I roast it. Of course garlic, butter & olive oil and S&P on the skin :-) . Any lemon pieces go inside, but that's another recipe! Yes, I like to use Bisquick as well. This chicken and dumpling recipe looks divine! Mr. Fox is so fortunate that you love to cook and bake and so are we! I enjoy your recipes and will be trying them. ~ Diane
I have made this complete with Bisquick dumplings. This is how I've made it so that I can make it just like you showed us. It's marvelous, delicious, and easy. I live in Ohio
Thanks for your recipe for dumplings. This is how my mother taught me. Since I was fairly young, I don't remember the rest; I just remember her telling me not to lift the lid until the dumplings are done. They turned out nice and fluffy.
Good old chicken and dumplings! I didn't think to use Bisquick. What a great idea. I've always made my dumplings from scratch. Sometimes I throw in chopped herbs into the mix. I would also put dumplings into a beef stew. It's making me want chicken and dumplings right now, it looks so good. Oh well, maybe tomorrow. This would be a good thing to bring to someone who was having a bad day or tough time, as a pick-me-up. Thank you for the recipe. Take care. ♥️
Good day to you from Canada. Bisquick is what we use since the 1970's. But now I make my own homemade Bisquick recipe. It is a great duplicate. Thank you for the amazing episodes you have. Such a beautiful channel.
I could smell that chicken bubbling right along! My MIL made it with vegetables like you did. Sometimes she made the steamed dumplings which she referred to as " fluffy dumplings". Sometimes she would make the rolled out dumplings which we called" slickers"! Either way they were great ! We are in South Jersey and mom who was Italian, cooked "American " for my father in law who wasn't!!
As a WV native we would only use chicken & broth, no vegetables. Bisquick made the dumplings for us. Yours looks heavenly& would tasty delicious while we hang out under these gray clouds. I discovered ur U Tube channel a few months ago & I am trying to catch up To the current offerings, u r so good.
From Country, Ontario, Canada .. Found an amazing homemade biscuit recipe that never fails. Yummy biscuits, although , l must confess, Bisquick biscuit are delicious. Have only made them a couple of times back in the 90's. ( I'm 66 ) & my mother never made them.
Even though it’s early summer, the weather has been rather cool and rainy so I decided to give this recipe a try and am I ever glad I did. I followed the recipe exactly, but did add a dash of poultry seasoning to both the broth and to the Bisquick mix and it was beyond delicious. I assume Mrs. Jones has passed away by now, but how nice of you Kevin to keep her memory alive by continuing to use her recipe and share it with others. By the way for other readers, I’m not sure why the butter was stated in grams but I looked it up and the 113 grams is equivalent to 1/2 cup in Imperial.
Hi Kevin, I'm a new subscriber and live in Wimbledon, London. I'm 70 years young and have used a product called Atora beef suet to make delicious fluffy dumplings for the last 50 years. You just add double the quantity of self raising flour to suet plus cold water to make a sticky dough. I also make beef and onion pudding, jam roll poly, fruit sponge pudding, cobbler and pie crust with it. These are fantastic meals to serve on a cold miserable evening in winter. PS. I love your channel and am binge watching your old videos. Take care Kevin.
Hi Kevin, I'm a new subscriber and I cannot tell you how comforting and relaxing it is to watch your videos...the simplicity of it all. I enjoy that you add a background story/history of the dish and how you demonstrate that simple old fashioned dishes are to be revered.
You have made my day…..again! Your joy of cooking and tasting makes me giggle! I will definitely try this recipe,just like my mother fixed with the biscuit dumplings when I was a little girl❣️
I was raised in Michigan and currently live in Seacoast New Hampshire. My mother made chicken and dumplings during our long ( back then);Michigan winters. I make mine much as you do but haven’t yet used my instant pot. Everything comes out better in my instant pot so I will cook my next fresh chicken in the same way you do! I have always used Bisquick and LOVE IT!
Hi Kevin, my Grandma used to make the dumplings like you do, but half of the dough was made out of cold cooked and mashed potatoes. Your dish looks very very appetizing! I am from Berlin/Germany. Greetings to you and Mr Fox☆
Mr. Kevin you are the best cooking blogger. Your explanation is clear and details Not too short and not too long. your recipes are very accurate. I just found your channel recently and I'm hooked on your cooking.
I'm a new fan and subscriber, I've been watching your demonstrations for the better part of a day. I discovered you when I watched your rendition of pommes Anna and was instantly hooked. So I've been watching a lot of your videos but I just watched you make chicken and dumplings using "Bisquick" for the dumplings, and the way you made the stew and the dumplings almost brought tears to my eyes. That's exactly how my mom used to make hers. Thanks for bringing back such wonderful memories. I'm looking forward to more.
I have the recipe from my Mom for dumplings. It's simply flour, salt, baking powder and milk. the best part of the hand written recipe card is that it says to "cover pot and steam for 10 minutes. (DON'T PEEK)" LOL
I was raised in Florida and we used can biscuits for our chicken and dumplings. I haven’t made it in years, I need to try it again. Thank you for sharing.
I hope you don’t mind me commenting on older videos. We were from a small town in South West Pennsylvania. In the mountains. A very small tow called Rimersburg. They even used to have their own Archway Cookie factory there. My mom used Bisquick for everything. Pizza dough, dumplings and strawberry shortcake just to name a few. Your chicken and dumplings looked amazing. It’s going to be a cold Sunday here in Ohio. I think I’m going to make this dish. Yummy. Comfort food at its best. ❤
Ok now the dumplings stole the show...They look very good and really fluffy and light...Thanks you for this video Kevin...I`m from Central Ontario, a little city called Orillia...Its known as the Sunshine city.
I LOVE chicken and dumplings! With this type of dumplings, not the flat noodle kind. Here's a tip for you. Have a small bowl of cold water there to dip your spoon into. The dough rolls off much easier from a wet spoon. 👍🏻👍🏻
Kevin, this dish looks so delicious. Dumplings remind me of my grandmothers stew in Newfoundland. They are so good. I laughed when you said they are screamingly delicious! Thankyou so much for this demo. You really make traditional recipes look so elegant and special.
Hi Kevin. Born in Chicago where I married and raised 2 children. I now am now in AZ for almost 20 years. My late husband was a United States Marine and my son Nick followed in his footsteps steps and most recently retired as a Lt. Colonel in the Corps. What a proud mom I am. My daughter Holly is here close to me in Cave Creek AZ. Very successful as well. I grew up on my mom’s Chicken and dumplings. And I might add she only used Bisquick. My recipe is very similar to yours and of course I make dumplings with now other than Bisquick. You will get a laugh on this one. At my daughter in laws shower, where now the brides future husbands attend, my son was asked what his most favorite dish is, “He replied my mom’s Chicken and dumplings”. 😅. I love all your videos. Thank you so much. And start out my day early morning catching up on them. Many Blessings to you and Mr. Fox.
Brazil here! 🇧🇷 I’ll have to try this recipe. Looks absolutely scrumptious! Biscuick isn’t available here. I’ll have to make the dumplings from scratch! Keep up the good work, Kevin. Your show is not only educating as it is very entertaining as well! Best regards to Mr Fox!
My family dish is chicken soup and kneidlach ! Eastern European … the kneidlach or dumplings are made with matzo meal … egg… smaltz (chicken fat) and are delicious! Now you can get a packet like your bisquick to make matzo balls . Jewish penicillin!!
Hi Kevin, I absolutely love your channel. I grew up with chicken and bisquick dumplings too! My parents were from North Dakota but fortunately I grew up in coastal Southern Calif! You’ve inspired me to make this recipe!☮️♥️
Hi Kevin. Southern girl here. I put carrots, celery, and onion to my Dutch Oven. I Saute those and then add chicken broth, poultry seasoning, and a bay leaf. I simmer that for about 30 minutes. I then strain my stock, place it back into a cleaned Dutch Oven. Return the broth to a low boil. I make slick dumplings. Everyone that I knew ( when growing up in Louisiana) made chicken with slick dumplings.
Kevin, I have just recently discovered you and I feel like you are a new friend❤. I live in Lancaster County Pa, but only just moved here from California I have lived in the south as well. My mom always used Bisquick and her chicken and dumplings were almost exactly as yours! I will be making this comforting dish this winter for sure….I love all your recipes and look forward to watching many more😊
I’m making chicken and dumplings at the moment, and I put your channel on and I always always use Bisquick. I agree with you it makes the best dumplings ever. Kevin, I really enjoy your videos you take care.❤
Here in the state of Delaware it’s getting to be that time of year to enjoy a nice bowl of Chicken and Dumplings😊. Although we do have them all year 😉. Growing up my family served rolled dumplings and I continued the same for many years. Sometimes I get requests for drop dumplings now, so it just depends on who is coming for dinner. I love them both. That goes for the added veggies too. I enjoyed this video!
Hi Kevin, grew up in Virginia and drop dumplings are the best. My mother was from Kentucky and drop dumpling were always served. I don't mind the flat ones, but I love a fluffy dumpling. We always had it with fried chicken.
Yum! This is such a great dish for cooler weather. Yours looks wonderful. I grew up eating dumplings that were always made from scratch - egg, water, flour & a dash of baking powder well mixed & seasoned with salt and a bit of fresh pressed garlic before being dropped into the soup. Honestly, it is the best ever & I still make my dumplings that way.
I live on Oklahoma. My Mom. I grew up in Arkansas and my Mom did not make chicken and dumplings. My Dad did not eat chicken so that was probably why. I do make Chicken and Dumplings once or twice in the winter. I use a dumplings recipe from an old cookbook published by Crisco.
Here in Mississippi, my grandmother, mother and I always cut our dumplings out. Rolled them out, cut into little squares and dropped into the broth. They make some excellent dumplings found in our frozen food section that are very much like our dumplings! ❤️😋
I just found your channel recently and enjoy it so much! My mother always made her dumplings with bisquick. It seems there was always a box of it in the kitchen cupboard. Thank you for this recipe😇
Hi Kevin, I am Italian and our chicken soup is close to your recipe , the difference is we break down the cooked chicken and add in ingredients and put the mixture in blender and roll little chicken balls, and add them in when soup is almost ready...so delicious just like the soup you prepared😊
Your dumplings look wonderful. It's the first time I saw dumplings that look like my aunt used to make when I was a kid. I am anxious to try your recipe. Thank you so much, Kevin.
I even made my own puffy dumplings for beef stew. Yummy also 😊 Your dish would be amazing too. By the way Kevin, could you play SHINE on your piano for us please. Love that tune.
Hi Kevin, my mother was a Kansas farm girl of German/French lineage. She made this for our family (growing up in California) all the time, and she made her dumplings like thick/wide noodles, and without veges. So good! We loved them. I made them for my family (we were living in Massachuetts when our kids were young) but added the celery and carrots for a one-pot meal. I don't add flour to thicken, but roll my biscuit dough into balls in flour, until they are very floury before dropping in, and therefore thicken the broth while cooking. Now we live back in California and I still make this, so this recipe has been all over the country. My mom's recipe does not use lemon juice, but I have a lemon tree in my back yard now, and I can't wait to cook it your way this week! Thank you for the inspiration.
Hi Kevin, Growing up, I loved whenever my Mom would make chicken and dumplings for supper. She would make the dumplings out of stale white bread (of course there was always white bread, it was the seventies, lol!) . I'm not certain if this method is regional (Massachusetts) cultural (eastern European) or her frugal Yankee "waste not" mentality. I believe my Aunt made them the same way, so it could be how my Polish grandmother taught them. I have eaten bread dumplings in both Germany and Czech Republic, so that may be the case. Watching your video made me realize how much I miss chicken and dumplings (and my Mom, aunt, and granny, too!), so I'm definitely going to give it a try. I have made many of your recipes, and they've all turned out so well - I never thought I could get my husband to try cube steak, but now he asks for it! Moreover, I trust that when you tell me something is delicious, it truly is! Thanks for keeping me company in the kitchen, you're fabulous!
I had been dying to make this since I saw the video on the weekend. Finally made it tonight following your video except I made it with (my recipe for) gluten free biscuits and it turned out amazing. My husband says it goes in the top 10 recipe list! High praise indeed.
Kevin your LOOKS the best. I do mine also ONLY with Bisquick mix. My grandmom made dumplings just like yours reminds me of when I was a kid & she used bisquick mix ONLY & used a spoon to place dumplings in the pot boy the best. I'm using your recipe because yours LOOKED so much like my grandmoms ALL the way down to even her dumplings yummy. I just subscribed to your youtube for ALL kinds of yummy recipes thank u God Bless.
Brand new subscriber! I’ve been scouring the internet forever to get a chicken and dumplings recipe like this. I watched your homemade bread recipe first and then I happened upon the dumpling recipe when I looked at your channel. Yay!! This is exactly how my mom made dumplings when I was a kid. She always made sauerkraut/corned beef and dumplings, but chicken is my fave! So happy I found you! I grew up in Wisconsin and now live in Minnesota.
Hello Kevin good evening from London UK. I have recently discovered your videos. They are both informative and entertaining with your anecdotes. Thank you for sharing
Kevin, of course we use vegetables in our Southern Slicks (what we call dumplings in the South)!! We always add carrots, onions, and celery when stewing the chicken and save the vegetables to add to the broth, chicken, slicks.
Just one little hint. Dip your spoon in the sauce then get your dough. It will drop right off every time. Love your recipes, your family and your home.
Hi Kevin
This is exactly how my mother prepared chicken and dumplings.
She learned from her mother who was from Oklahoma.
She moved to Southern California and married my father and I was born and raised in California.

I love to make this with left over Turkey from Thanksgiving. Bisquick dumplings is how my dad taught me.

Those dumplings are beautiful Kevin.
Good day Kevin, I'm from Ontario Canada, I used to love my mom's chicken and dumplings. She used to make it with wood rabbits and partridge we were very poor so we ate what we could kill. But this was her dimpling recipe it's very light and simple also: 1 cup of sifted flour , 2 teaspoon baking powder, 1\2 teaspoon salt, 1 tbsp of light oil, sprig parsley, minced and about 1\2 cup milk.

Drop by tablespoons in the pot and close your lid and DO NOT OPEN THE LID UNTIL 20 MINUTES LATER. ENJOY !!!
Thanks for this. I don’t use commercial mixes so I’ll definitely try your mums recipe. 🥰👏🏻❣️🇨🇦
In New Zealand we can't get bisquick so thank you for this alternative recipe.

I'm gonna try this...My mom made this often on Sundays back in Tennessee 1950's...Thank You!
Partridge and rabbit are my favourite, Also from Ontario, Canada by Algonquin park South.
What a great video with a recipe that certainly brought back many, many happy memories to the viewers! Love the way you present! Thanks for sharing!!!
Love Bisquick dumplings. Try cooking uncovered for 20 minutes and then covered for 20 minutes. Will result in an even fluffier dumpling.
And for a quicker prep time try adding just grated carrots, onion powder, and good dash or two of poultry seasoning. Sometimes we add a bit of granulated chicken bouillon to the dumpling batter. ❤ from the Pacific NW!!!
It brings back memories of what my grandmother made for me
I live in Australia, and those dumplings are made the same way my mum used to make them, but we serve them with steak and kidney stew. Delicious!
Nope, from Georgia and never heard of putting vegetables in chicken and dumplings. The focus in that dish when my mother cooked it was the dumplings. She always made her own dumplings from scratch and they were delicious.

I'm trying this tonight, Kevin, in Ottawa, Canada. We have the weather for this! Mrs. Jones would be so proud of you ♥
Great tip on the celery...I didn't know it would freeze.
Good Friday morning Kevin. Well done Well done! I was so glad to see you add some fresh lemon juice. As I previously mentioned, I soak my whole chicken in a huge pan of lemon juice and water and then proceed with my recipe. Sometimes I thinly slice a lemon, slather the slices with pesto and slide them under the chicken skin before I roast it. Of course garlic, butter & olive oil and S&P on the skin :-) . Any lemon pieces go inside, but that's another recipe!

Thanks for your recipe for dumplings. This is how my mother taught me. Since I was fairly young, I don't remember the rest; I just remember her telling me not to lift the lid until the dumplings are done. They turned out nice and fluffy.
Thank you for your videos! They are wonderful to watch and I can taste the food.
Dumplings hust like my Mom used to make! I love that you added the veggies and I'll definitely try it😊
Born and raised in Chicago, as we're my parents.
Good old chicken and dumplings! I didn't think to use Bisquick. What a great idea. I've always made my dumplings from scratch. Sometimes I throw in chopped herbs into the mix. I would also put dumplings into a beef stew. It's making me want chicken and dumplings right now, it looks so good. Oh well, maybe tomorrow. This would be a good thing to bring to someone who was having a bad day or tough time, as a pick-me-up. Thank you for the recipe. Take care. ♥️
My own mom was from the midwest and those are the kind of dumplings I grew up with (sometimes turkey and dumplings) - yum!!
Good day to you from Canada. Bisquick is what we use since the 1970's. But now I make my own homemade Bisquick recipe. It is a great duplicate. Thank you for the amazing episodes you have. Such a beautiful channel.
I could smell that chicken bubbling right along! My MIL made it with vegetables like you did. Sometimes she made the steamed dumplings which she referred to as " fluffy dumplings". Sometimes she would make the rolled out dumplings which we called" slickers"! Either way they were great ! We are in South Jersey and mom who was Italian, cooked "American " for my father in law who wasn't!!
In Canada, dumplings are like you made. The dish looks so good.
As a WV native we would only use chicken & broth, no vegetables. Bisquick made the dumplings for us. Yours looks heavenly& would tasty delicious while we hang out under these gray clouds.
I discovered ur U Tube channel a few months ago & I am trying to catch up
To the current offerings, u r so good.
Hello Kevin, I also use Bisquick. It makes beautiful dumplings. They melt in your mouth. Not noodle like. They use for sharing this recipe. God Bless.
From Country, Ontario, Canada .. Found an amazing homemade biscuit recipe that never fails. Yummy biscuits, although , l must confess, Bisquick biscuit are delicious. Have only made them a couple of times back in the 90's. ( I'm 66 ) & my mother never made them.
I'm impressed!
Never used Bisquick, but now I'm going to buy some and do this♡♡♡
Thanks so much for the recipe !
Oh Kevin this is fantastic! I"m going to make this using the Instant Pot as well. Many thanks!
Even though it’s early summer, the weather has been rather cool and rainy so I decided to give this recipe a try and am I ever glad I did. I followed the recipe exactly, but did add a dash of poultry seasoning to both the broth and to the Bisquick mix and it was beyond delicious. I assume Mrs. Jones has passed away by now, but how nice of you Kevin to keep her memory alive by continuing to use her recipe and share it with others. By the way for other readers, I’m not sure why the butter was stated in grams but I looked it up and the 113 grams is equivalent to 1/2 cup in Imperial.
Glad you enjoyed it!!!
Hi Kevin, I'm a new subscriber and live in Wimbledon, London. I'm 70 years young and have used a product called Atora beef suet to make delicious fluffy dumplings for the last 50 years. You just add double the quantity of self raising flour to suet plus cold water to make a sticky dough. I also make beef and onion pudding, jam roll poly, fruit sponge pudding, cobbler and pie crust with it. These are fantastic meals to serve on a cold miserable evening in winter. PS. I love your channel and am binge watching your old videos. Take care Kevin.
Hi Christine - Thank you for subscribing. Also, thank you for binge-watching the videos -- I really appreciate that!
Hi Kevin, I'm a new subscriber and I cannot tell you how comforting and relaxing it is to watch your videos...the simplicity of it all. I enjoy that you add a background story/history of the dish and how you demonstrate that simple old fashioned dishes are to be revered.
Kevin you are helping make my “ dry January “ a little more tolerable. You are relaxing to watch
You have made my day…..again! Your joy of cooking and tasting makes me giggle! I will definitely try this recipe,just like my mother fixed with the biscuit dumplings when I was a little girl❣️
I always use Bisquick. My mother did also, so why ruin a good thing. We also used it for delicious drop biscuits on the top of stew.
I was raised in Michigan and currently live in Seacoast New Hampshire. My mother made chicken and dumplings during our long ( back then);Michigan winters. I make mine much as you do but haven’t yet used my instant pot. Everything comes out better in my instant pot so I will cook my next fresh chicken in the same way you do! I have always used Bisquick and LOVE IT!
Looks so good, perfect!! One of your best dishes!!!
Hi Kevin,
my Grandma used to make the dumplings like you do, but half of the dough was made out of cold cooked and mashed potatoes.
Your dish looks very very appetizing!
I am from Berlin/Germany.
Greetings to you and Mr Fox☆
Mr. Kevin you are the best cooking blogger. Your explanation is clear and details
Not too short and not too long. your recipes are very accurate.
I just found your channel recently and I'm hooked on your cooking.
I'm a new fan and subscriber, I've been watching your demonstrations for the better part of a day. I discovered you when I watched your rendition of pommes Anna and was instantly hooked. So I've been watching a lot of your videos but I just watched you make chicken and dumplings using "Bisquick" for the dumplings, and the way you made the stew and the dumplings almost brought tears to my eyes. That's exactly how my mom used to make hers. Thanks for bringing back such wonderful memories. I'm looking forward to more.
I have the recipe from my Mom for dumplings. It's simply flour, salt, baking powder and milk. the best part of the hand written recipe card is that it says to "cover pot and steam for 10 minutes. (DON'T PEEK)" LOL
I was raised in Florida and we used can biscuits for our chicken and dumplings. I haven’t made it in years, I need to try it again. Thank you for sharing.
Kevin, Just discovered your videos and I'm now a real fan. Love the various recipes, as well as your tours of your lovely home.
Just got this pushed into my TH-cam feed and I am so grateful. A favorite of mine!
I hope you don’t mind me commenting on older videos. We were from a small town in South West Pennsylvania. In the mountains. A very small tow called Rimersburg. They even used to have their own Archway Cookie factory there. My mom used Bisquick for everything. Pizza dough, dumplings and strawberry shortcake just to name a few. Your chicken and dumplings looked amazing. It’s going to be a cold Sunday here in Ohio. I think I’m going to make this dish. Yummy. Comfort food at its best. ❤
Ok now the dumplings stole the show...They look very good and really fluffy and light...Thanks you for this video Kevin...I`m from Central Ontario, a little city called Orillia...Its known as the Sunshine city.
Thank you for inspiring me to film this video. The dumplings are truly wonderful -- and Bisquick is available in your neck of Ontario!
I LOVE chicken and dumplings! With this type of dumplings, not the flat noodle kind. Here's a tip for you. Have a small bowl of cold water there to dip your spoon into. The dough rolls off much easier from a wet spoon. 👍🏻👍🏻
Kevin, this dish looks so delicious. Dumplings remind me of my grandmothers stew in Newfoundland. They are so good. I laughed when you said they are screamingly delicious! Thankyou so much for this demo. You really make traditional recipes look so elegant and special.
Hi Kevin. Born in Chicago where I married and raised 2 children. I now am now in AZ for almost 20 years. My late husband was a United States Marine and my son Nick followed in his footsteps steps and most recently retired as a Lt. Colonel in the Corps. What a proud mom I am. My daughter Holly is here close to me in Cave Creek AZ. Very successful as well.
I grew up on my mom’s Chicken and dumplings. And I might add she only used Bisquick.
My recipe is very similar to yours and of course I make dumplings with now other than Bisquick.
You will get a laugh on this one. At my daughter in laws shower, where now the brides future husbands attend, my son was asked what his most favorite dish is, “He replied my mom’s Chicken and dumplings”. 😅. I love all your videos. Thank you so much. And start out my day early morning catching up on them. Many Blessings to you and Mr. Fox.
Brazil here! 🇧🇷 I’ll have to try this recipe. Looks absolutely scrumptious! Biscuick isn’t available here. I’ll have to make the dumplings from scratch! Keep up the good work, Kevin. Your show is not only educating as it is very entertaining as well! Best regards to Mr Fox!
My family dish is chicken soup and kneidlach ! Eastern European … the kneidlach or dumplings are made with matzo meal … egg… smaltz (chicken fat) and are delicious! Now you can get a packet like your bisquick to make matzo balls . Jewish penicillin!!
Hi Kevin. I'm from the UK. Our dumplings are made with just flour, suet, water and seasoning. Then pop in the stew for about 20 minutes. x
Hi Kevin, I absolutely love your channel. I grew up with chicken and bisquick dumplings too! My parents were from North Dakota but fortunately I grew up in coastal Southern Calif! You’ve inspired me to make this recipe!☮️♥️
Hi Kevin. Southern girl here. I put carrots, celery, and onion to my Dutch Oven. I Saute those and then add chicken broth, poultry seasoning, and a bay leaf. I simmer that for about 30 minutes. I then strain my stock, place it back into a cleaned Dutch Oven. Return the broth to a low boil. I make slick dumplings. Everyone that I knew ( when growing up in Louisiana) made chicken with slick dumplings.
Kevin, I have just recently discovered you and I feel like you are a new friend❤. I live in Lancaster County Pa, but only just moved here from California
I have lived in the south as well. My mom always used Bisquick and her chicken and dumplings were almost exactly as yours! I will be making this comforting dish this winter for sure….I love all your recipes and look forward to watching many more😊
I agree. The best dumpings.
I made these dumplings last night, my hubby is from Michigan, I'm from Texas. He loved them, he ate all but 2.
I'm so glad!!!
That's how I was served chicken and dumplings as child and that's how I cook them now as an adult! Yum, I also add wild rice once in a while!!!
I live in Cloquet in northern Minnesota ,but was raised in Mpls
Home made dumplings flour ,butter crisco ,baking powder and baking soda and season to taste with favorite seasonings .
@@kimberlyfohrenkam3426 Minnesotan here, too. I sometimes put wild rice in my dumpling broth, too. That's a very regional addition!
I’m making chicken and dumplings at the moment, and I put your channel on and I always always use Bisquick. I agree with you it makes the best dumplings ever. Kevin, I really enjoy your videos you take care.❤
All I have to say is "I want some right now" 😋 delicious. Thank you I will definitely give it a try. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
Can't wait to make it!! Thanks.
Here in the state of Delaware it’s getting to be that time of year to enjoy a nice bowl of Chicken and Dumplings😊. Although we do have them all year 😉. Growing up my family served rolled dumplings and I continued the same for many years. Sometimes I get requests for drop dumplings now, so it just depends on who is coming for dinner. I love them both. That goes for the added veggies too. I enjoyed this video!
Hi Kevin, grew up in Virginia and drop dumplings are the best. My mother was from Kentucky and drop dumpling were always served. I don't mind the flat ones, but I love a fluffy dumpling. We always had it with fried chicken.
YOU DID IT KEVIN!! 100 K SUBSCRIBERS. YEAAAAHHH🤗🤗🤩🤩❤❤👍👍🙏 YOUR HARD WORK PAID OFF. NOW SHOOTING FOR THE 200 K. 🥳
Yum! This is such a great dish for cooler weather. Yours looks wonderful. I grew up eating dumplings that were always made from scratch - egg, water, flour & a dash of baking powder well mixed & seasoned with salt and a bit of fresh pressed garlic before being dropped into the soup. Honestly, it is the best ever & I still make my dumplings that way.
Thank You for the recipe 😊. I’m from the West coast and i prefer the biscuits made just the way you did it!
love chicken and dumplings.i live in n.e.georgia.yours looks yummy
I live on Oklahoma. My Mom. I grew up in Arkansas and my Mom did not make chicken and dumplings. My Dad did not eat chicken so that was probably why. I do make Chicken and Dumplings once or twice in the winter. I use a dumplings recipe from an old cookbook published by Crisco.
Kevin, you make everything you cook look delicious but this looks exceptional scrumptious! Love you videos and thank you so much for making them💕
I know this was 2 years ago. I live in Australia and when I make a hearty beef stew I add dumplings.
It’s a great winter meal
Here in Mississippi, my grandmother, mother and I always cut our dumplings out. Rolled them out, cut into little squares and dropped into the broth. They make some excellent dumplings found in our frozen food section that are very much like our dumplings! ❤️😋
Good Evening Kevin my favorite dumplings sometimes i add dried parsley to it
I just found your channel recently and enjoy it so much! My mother always made her dumplings with bisquick. It seems there was always a box of it in the kitchen cupboard. Thank you for this recipe😇
Hi Kevin, I am Italian and our chicken soup is close to your recipe , the difference is we break down the cooked chicken and add in ingredients and put the mixture in blender and roll little chicken balls, and add them in when soup is almost ready...so delicious just like the soup you prepared😊
Thank you as I have never used Bisquick before, but I'm going to give this a try. It looked very delicious. I'm in Florida.
Looks delicious and so easy to prepare, love the idea of using Bisquick for the dumplings. Will be preparing very soon. Thank you.
Your dumplings look wonderful. It's the first time I saw dumplings that look like my aunt used to make when I was a kid. I am anxious to try your recipe. Thank you so much, Kevin.
I even made my own puffy dumplings for beef stew. Yummy also 😊 Your dish would be amazing too. By the way Kevin, could you play SHINE on your piano for us please. Love that tune.
Hi Kevin, my mother was a Kansas farm girl of German/French lineage. She made this for our family (growing up in California) all the time, and she made her dumplings like thick/wide noodles, and without veges. So good! We loved them. I made them for my family (we were living in Massachuetts when our kids were young) but added the celery and carrots for a one-pot meal. I don't add flour to thicken, but roll my biscuit dough into balls in flour, until they are very floury before dropping in, and therefore thicken the broth while cooking. Now we live back in California and I still make this, so this recipe has been all over the country. My mom's recipe does not use lemon juice, but I have a lemon tree in my back yard now, and I can't wait to cook it your way this week! Thank you for the inspiration.
Hi Kevin, Growing up, I loved whenever my Mom would make chicken and dumplings for supper. She would make the dumplings out of stale white bread (of course there was always white bread, it was the seventies, lol!) . I'm not certain if this method is regional (Massachusetts) cultural (eastern European) or her frugal Yankee "waste not" mentality. I believe my Aunt made them the same way, so it could be how my Polish grandmother taught them. I have eaten bread dumplings in both Germany and Czech Republic, so that may be the case.
Watching your video made me realize how much I miss chicken and dumplings (and my Mom, aunt, and granny, too!), so I'm definitely going to give it a try. I have made many of your recipes, and they've all turned out so well - I never thought I could get my husband to try cube steak, but now he asks for it! Moreover, I trust that when you tell me something is delicious, it truly is! Thanks for keeping me company in the kitchen, you're fabulous!
Hi Kimberlyann - Your mother's/aunt's/grandmother's bread dumplings sound wonderful!
May I ask how she made white bread dumpling recipe? I enjoyed reading your story.
I had been dying to make this since I saw the video on the weekend. Finally made it tonight following your video except I made it with (my recipe for) gluten free biscuits and it turned out amazing. My husband says it goes in the top 10 recipe list! High praise indeed.
Sounds amazing! Would you be willing to share your recipe for gluten-free dumplings? That would be just awesome! Thank you🙏🏼🕊
Kevin your LOOKS the best. I do mine also ONLY with Bisquick mix. My grandmom made dumplings just like yours reminds me of when I was a kid & she used bisquick mix ONLY & used a spoon to place dumplings in the pot boy the best. I'm using your recipe because yours LOOKED so much like my grandmoms ALL the way down to even her dumplings yummy. I just subscribed to your youtube for ALL kinds of yummy recipes thank u God Bless.
Brand new subscriber! I’ve been scouring the internet forever to get a chicken and dumplings recipe like this. I watched your homemade bread recipe first and then I happened upon the dumpling recipe when I looked at your channel. Yay!! This is exactly how my mom made dumplings when I was a kid. She always made sauerkraut/corned beef and dumplings, but chicken is my fave! So happy I found you! I grew up in Wisconsin and now live in Minnesota.
Hi Lisa - So glad you found me. Thanks for subscribing!
One of my fav filling
meals. Brings back good memories.
Thank you.👍🏼❤
MIDWEST
This is how my mom taught me to make it. She didn't put vegetables in it, but I do. Yummy!!
Hello Kevin good evening from London UK. I have recently discovered your videos. They are both informative and entertaining with your anecdotes. Thank you for sharing
Kevin, of course we use vegetables in our Southern Slicks (what we call dumplings in the South)!! We always add carrots, onions, and celery when stewing the chicken and save the vegetables to add to the broth, chicken, slicks.
Just one little hint. Dip your spoon in the sauce then get your dough. It will drop right off every time. Love your recipes, your family and your home.
Thanks for the tip!
