I was searching for the best Chicken & Dumplings recipe I could find and stumbled across, Paula Dean's Chicken & Dumplings.
I just made this recipe for part of our Thanksgiving feast a few days ago.
I didn't add celery or onions to the stew, but OMG it was the best Chicken & Dumplings I have ever had! They were extremely easy to make and I will never make drop dumplings again!
Check it out sometime, you will LOVE it!

It also says to add a can of cream of celery OR cream of chicken soup, I used the cream of chicken soup....like I said previously, these were the best chicken & dumplings Ive ever had...I will always make this recipe from now on...MMMMmm!
