Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 cups bisquick mix
- 2/3 cup milk (160 ml)
Supporting Ingredients:
- (Optional) salt to taste
- (Optional) black pepper to taste
Cooking Liquid:
- 4 cups chicken broth (950 ml)
Instructions
- Whisk Bisquick mix and milk together in a medium bowl until a cohesive, slightly sticky dough develops.
- Ensure the stew or soup is gently simmering at a low, steady temperature before adding dumplings.
- Using a spoon, carefully drop rounded portions of dough directly into the liquid, spacing them evenly to prevent sticking.
- Allow dumplings to cook uncovered for 10 minutes, which helps them develop a lightly golden exterior.
- Cover the pot and continue cooking for an additional 10 minutes, enabling the dumplings to steam and become fluffy throughout.
- Test doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center of a dumpling – it should come out clean and the dough should look puffy and light.
- Remove from heat and let rest for 2-3 minutes to allow dumplings to set and absorb subtle flavors from the surrounding liquid.
- Serve immediately while warm, garnishing with fresh herbs if desired for an extra touch of flavor and visual appeal.
Notes
- Swap whole milk for non-dairy alternatives like almond or oat milk to create a lactose-free version of these dumplings.
- Add herbs like chopped parsley or thyme directly into the Bisquick mixture for an extra layer of flavor that complements your stew or soup.
- For a gluten-free option, use a gluten-free Bisquick mix or create a similar dumpling using a gluten-free baking blend to maintain the same fluffy texture.
- Ensure your liquid is gently simmering, not boiling vigorously, to prevent the dumplings from becoming tough or falling apart during cooking.
