What are Chicken and Dumplings?

Chicken and dumplings is a slightly thickened chicken soup dish with the addition of dumplings simmered into it.

Types of Dumplings

There are a few different types of dumplings that are used for chicken and dumplings.

Rolled/Noodle Dumplings

A simple dough is rolled out, cut into short/wide pieces and added to the soup. These dumplings are flat, soft, dense, and hold together well. They’re considered the most common ‘old fashioned’ dumplings used in chicken and dumplings.

Biscuit Dumplings

Canned biscuits are most commonly used for this type of dumpling. The biscuits are separated, quartered and dropped into the soup. These dumplings puff up a bit, but aren’t really fluffy and can also be a bit dense.

Drop Dumplings

Drop dumplings, which is what we use in our easy chicken and dumpling recipe and also by far our favorite, are made with a thick batter that is scooped and dropped into the soup. It produces light and fluffy dumplings and we love the ease of making them.
