Starter-Friendly Chicken and Dumplings
  1. 1

    Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onions; cook and stir until they start to soften, about 3 minutes. Add the chicken; cook and stir until it is no longer pink in the center, about 10 minutes. Add the water, condensed soup, bouillon cubes, and poultry seasoning; stir to combine. Raise the heat to medium-high and bring to a simmer.

  2. 2

    Meanwhile, pour the milk into a mixing bowl. Add the baking mix and stir until a dough forms.

  3. 3

    Drop spoonfuls of the dumpling mix into the simmering soup. Lower the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes. Turn the dumplings over and continue simmering until they are no longer doughy in the center, about 10 more minutes.
