The bottoms of the biscuits are a bit doughy that we love. However, they still cooked, don’t worry. In my mind, nothing is more comfortable than a big chicken and knuckle bowl. Every chicken and dumplings version is honestly fine for me. I love everything. I love everything. I love the Chicken and Flat Chicken in a thick cotton broth. I love the big fluffy Bisquick Dumplings in a thinner cotton broth. I love the dumplings in a very thick and dense broth made with canned biscuits.
It works great because I’ve been capable of using frozen chicken breasts (which are a lot cheaper than your fresh counterparts – yet still just as delicious). Fresh chicken breasts can also be used. I decided that I wanted a thicker broth, so I tried a quick trick to make it happen with canned biscuits.
