Angel's Easy Chicken 'n Dumplings

These aren't Northern dumplings, which are dropped into the soup, and they ain't quite Southern dumplings either – which are rolled out and cut into strips. By not dropping and not rolling out my dumpling dough, I've created non-partisan chicken and dumplings! This recipe serves 6-8.

2 cups shredded chicken (more or less - depending on your preference)
1 can cream of chicken soup
2 cans of condensed chicken broth
2 tsp minced onion flakes
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp poultry seasoning
Chicken boullion
Water
2 cups Bisquick
2/3 cup milk

To the broth, add chicken, onion flakes, garlic powder, poultry seasoning, cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, 1 cube boullion, plus 2 cans of water. Taste and re-season broth with *salt and pepper; you want the broth to taste rich. *WATCH OUT for how much salt you put in because the boullion is very salty. Turn the heat up and bring chicken broth to a rolling simmer.

While your broth heats up, mix together Bisquick and half of the milk in a smallish bowl (this sure does use a lot of dishes, eh?). Stir Bisquick mixture and add milk until a soft dough is formed. Take a spoonful of dough and roll it into a 1 to 1.5-inch ball shape or roll it into a flat sheet and cut 1x1" squares with a pizza cutter. As soon as the broth is at a low soft boil drop in about 5-6 dough pieces and put on the lid. (If the liquid is at a big fat rolling boil it'll break up the dumplings.) Simmer for 5 minutes – WITHOUT OPENING THE LID – and then use a slotted spoon to turn them over. Put the lid back on and cook the dumplings another 5 minutes (without opening the lid). They will resemble little fluffy clouds floating in a slurry of sunshine.

Next, remove them to a plate while you cook the remaining dumplings as described above.

When all your dumplings are cooked, reduce heat to low and add the dumplings back to the broth. Cover, set the table, holler for the kids to come and wash their hands, take the cornbread out of the oven, and then serve.

Chicken and Cheese Enchiladas

Paul and I made this recipe up trying to duplicate our favorite dish from our most favorite Mexican restaurant in Birmingham. Oh it is good! I serve this with additional Taco Bell sauce, salsa/pico de gallo, and sour cream. This serves 6-8.

4 cups shredded chicken
1 medium onion, chopped, or 2 tbsp minced onion flakes
2 tbsp. bacon grease
12 oz. cream cheese, softened
3 cloves garlic, chopped and crushed, or 1 tbsp garlic powder
1 10-count pkg. burrito size flour tortillas
2 bottles Taco Bell sauce
3-4 cups of cheese (we like a lot of cheese!)

Preheat oven to 350F. Spray a 9x13” pan with nonstick cooking spray. Place chicken into large mixing bowl.

In a skillet over medium heat, saute onions in bacon grease until onions are caramelized. Add fresh garlic and saute for 2 minutes. (If using onion flakes and garlic powder, skip this step.) Deglaze pan with 1/4 cup water, and then add to shredded chicken. Mix in 3/4 bottle Taco Bell sauce and cream cheese. When mixed, stir in 1 cup shredded cheese.

Next try to evenly divide chicken mixture into each tortilla, roll them up, making sure you spread the beans to the ends. Lay each enchilada vertically across the 13 inches of the pan so that they are all in a row. Yes they will fit! You just have to squish them in there.

Pour half bottle of Taco Bell sauce over top of rolled enchiladas and spread over all the exposed tortillas. This keeps them moist and flavorful (not crispy). Top with cheese and cook about 15-20 minutes or until cheese is bubbly and yummy. Remove from over, cool about 10 minutes and dig in.
