Instructions
PREPARE THE CHICKEN AND GRAVY:
- Heat 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper; dredge in flour. Place the chicken in the pot, skin-side down, and cook for 7-8 minutes. Turn the chicken over and continue cooking for about 20 more minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F Smaller chicken pieces may be done sooner, while larger breasts may require extra time. Remove chicken to a cutting board. When the chicken is cool enough to handle, pick the meat off of the bones (discard the skin and bones).
- Wipe out the pot that you used for the chicken, then whisk together the soups and milk. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat and whisk to a smooth consistency. Stir in the chicken, reduce heat to medium, and simmer for about 10 minutes. Stir in the peas and carrots and cook for 2 minutes to heat through. Add thyme and season with salt and pepper to taste.
PREPARE THE DUMPLINGS:
- In a medium bowl, stir together baking mix and milk. Drop the dough by tablespoonfuls into the simmering broth; do NOT stir the dumplings and do not let your simmer go too fast (or the dumplings will fall apart). Cook the dumplings, uncovered, over medium-low heat for 10 minutes. Then cover the pot with a lid and continue cooking the dumplings for about 10 more minutes (or until firm to the touch and cooked through). Stay at a gentle simmer – do not let the pot come to a full boil. To tell when your dumplings are done, press with your finger -- they should be firm to the touch. You can also stick a toothpick in the center of a dumpling. The dumplings are ready when the toothpick comes out clean (with no wet dough on it).
- Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley and serve!

Notes
- For a shortcut, you can skip a step and avoid cooking your own chicken. Instead, use about 3 ½ cups of cooked, shredded meat from a store-bought rotisserie chicken. If starting with the rotisserie chicken, skip Step 1 and start on Step 2.
- How to keep Bisquick dumplings from falling apart: Once you drop the biscuit dough into the pot, be sure that you do not stir the dumplings and do not let the simmer go too fast. If you bring the broth to a rolling boil or fast simmer, the dumplings may dissolve or fall apart.
- If the chicken and dumplings are too thick for your liking, you can thin the gravy with a little bit of chicken broth.
