I can cook by following a recipe, but some people just have that real cooking talent of creating something new with a recipe. Mary at Deep South Dish has taken an old time favorite, chicken and dumplings, and has given it a brand new spin. The dish she has created is actually a casserole, but it tastes like classic chicken and dumplings.
Pour the melted butter into the bottom of the casserole dish, then add a layer of shredded chicken.
Whisk together the flour and the milk and carefully pour over the chicken.
Mix the chicken broth and cream of chicken soup and carefully pour over the chicken next without disturbing the previous layers, do not stir.
Bake uncovered in a 400 degree preheated oven for 35 – 45 minutes, and this is where the magic happens.
The casserole comes out a light golden brown with a crusty top, just yummy. This is the easiest, yet tastiest, chicken and dumplings dish I have ever made. Thanks, Mary, for a super recipe.
That looks SO good. I could eat comfort food like this every single day.
That is SO easy, Anita!! Chicken & dumplings is probably my all-time favorite meal. I posted mine on my blog when I first started posting, but it's much more time-consumming. I need to try this one out.
I have never tasted chicken and dumplings! This looks like a good place to start. Thanks, have a great weekend.
I am trying it, it sounds wonderful!
Have a great weekend, Anita!
Anita, this recipe sounds wonderful! gloria
Thanks so much Anita for sharing my recipe with your readers! It has been one of the most popular casseroles on my website since I first posted it. The link in the post is not working, so if you readers would like to print off the original recipe they can find it here: http://www.deepsouthdish.com/2009/02/chicken-and-dumpling-bake.html Thanks again & enjoy!
Thanks, Mary! I hope I have the link corrected now. I didn't realize it wasn't working. Technology gets me sometimes!
This looks absolutely wonderful. Perfect on a cruddy day like it is today!
Oh yum. Love remakes of favorites. This looks great. Thanks for sharing on Hunk of Meat Monday. And I am sure your recipe will be a favorite again this week.

It's really cold here today in CO and this sounds like the perfect comfort food (and I have roast chicken leftover!)

P.S. I don't know what happened to the post above. 🙂
Me too I can only cook by just following the recipe like follwing the chicken and dumplings bake. But there are people who are gifted when it comes to cooking. I bet I can be like them in the future.
