Stephanie's Chicken & Dumplings!

Photo and recipe by Stephanie Spaltro

What you need:

1 family size pack of chicken thighs or legs, you dont want breasts because they no flavor. I use about 8 chicken legs
4 sticks of butter
12 boullion cubes-I used the chicken herbed flavored ones from walmart, they are really good!
2 cans Pillsbury Buttermilk Biscuits
salt and pepper

Directions:

I  use a LARGE sauce pan as you can see in my horrible picture taking abilities =D

Rinse chicken in cold water and add to pan. Cover chicken with about 3/4 pan of water maybe a little more, but not all the way to the edge!
add two sticks of butter a little salt and pepper and 8 bouillions to water and let it boil on medium high heat for about 2 hours or until chicken is falling off the bone.

Remove chicken from juice and let cool completely or until you can tolerate to touch the meat to remove the bones. Add to juice 4 more bouillions and 2 more sticks of butter! the butter makes the flavor!

Mean while, pour flour on cutting board and roll biscuits in it coating them well in the flour, apply flour to rolling pin and roll each biscuit out.
With the pizza cutter, cut each biscuit into strips and add back to juice and butter in pan, make sure you drop them individually into the boil of juice..if you  have no boil, turn heat up some til you get some, trust me on this it makes a difference!

let simmer about 15 minutes,  stirring occasionally cause you dont want to break the strips of biscuits up, but you also dont want them to stick together.

Return chicken to pan and simmer about another 30 minutes til biscuits are cooked the whole way through! yummmmmy yummmy I can just eat the dumpling and juice, the heck with the chicken!

SERVE AND ENJOY!

THIS IS ONLY THE SECOND TIME I EVER MADE IT, BUT I LISTENED TO MY SISTERS INSTRUCTIONS WAY BETTER THIS TIME AND IT TURNED OUT REALLY GOOD! I hope you and your family enjoy it also!
