Homemade Chicken & Dumplings As strange as it may seem, one of the first comfort meals I learned to cook was Homemade Chicken & Dumplings. (Although this is not how my mom makes chicken & dumplings. Hers are dropped and are fluffy like a biscuit.) As a young married couple we spent lots of time with another young couple. We laughed, cruised many a country road, and had little structure to our lives (those were the days LOL). A few times we ate dinner with them and one of my friend's specialties was this recipe for Chicken & Dumplings. My very picky husband must have felt pressure to be nice and taste her dish (he would never have tasted it for me), but he instantly fell in love this creamy comfort dish. Since learning to make this I have enjoyed many a plate of chicken & dumplings at Cracker Barrel restaurant knowing the entire time that mine is every bit as good as what you get in this restaurant. For years I have cooked...
This is how I do it AT HOME MY WAY!
