Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a large 3-quart saucepan or Dutch oven, combine 1 1/2 cups milk, frozen peas, frozen carrots, cooked chicken, and the can of condensed creamy chicken soup.
  2. Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  3. While the soup heats, prepare the dumpling dough in a small bowl by mixing the Bisquick, 1/3 cup milk, and black pepper until a soft, cohesive dough forms.
  4. Once the soup is simmering, drop the dough by 8 rounded spoonfuls directly onto the surface of the liquid.
  5. Reduce the heat to low and cook uncovered for 10 minutes to allow the bottoms to set and brown slightly.
  6. Cover the pot tightly with a lid and continue cooking on low heat for another 10 minutes, or until the dumplings are fluffy and cooked through.
  7. Remove from heat and gently sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving.
