Easiest Ever Chicken and Dumplings Recipe - (3.8/5) image

Provided by msippigrl

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 cups cooked chicken, shredded or chopped
1 (14-ounce) package refrigerated Azteca burrito size flour tortillas, cut into 2- to 3-inch strips
8 cups chicken broth
Chicken bouillon or 'Better Than Bouillon' chicken base, to taste
Salt, to taste
Black pepper, to taste
Dash garlic salt
Dash poultry seasoning, optional
2 to 3 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup whole milk

Steps:

Bring the broth and desired seasonings (bouillon, salt, pepper, garlic salt, poultry seasoning) to a boil in a large (preferably non-stick) pot over medium-high heat. Drop the tortilla strips, one at a time, into the boiling broth, gently pushing them down to the bottom. Resist the urge to stir as they are fragile and will fall apart if stirred too much. Cook for about 10 to 15 minutes or to your liking, lightly shaking the pot occasionally to move them around. Remove from heat and gently stir in the butter, milk, and cooked chicken. Refrigerate leftovers. Reheat in the microwave, adding a dab of milk, if needed.
