30 Minute Chicken And Dumplings


This is a rachel ray recipe i had in my file for quite awhile, and had to try it recently to satisfy a craving. It turned out really well. I used made from scratch biscuit recipe as i couldn't locate the jiffy mix in my area, i made about 6 biscuits. Also, i think the refrigerated biscuits would work as well. Otherwise i followed the recipe pretty much exactly.
