Default Camping chicken and dumplings

Here's a good recipe someone shared with me for chicken and dumplings that you can make while camping or at home. I made it at home first and the whole family must have liked it because the pot was clean!

Ingredients:
•2 chicken breasts, skinless boneless
•2 15-ounce cans chicken broth
•1 medium potato, diced
•1 small onion, diced
•1 carrot, sliced
•1 stalk celery, sliced
•1 cup peas
•1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
•1 teaspoon thyme
•1 teaspoon salt
•1 teaspoon black pepper
•2 bay leaves
•3 tablspoons flour
•1 can of 5 refrigerator biscuits
•2 tablespoons vegetable oil
•2 tablespoons butter

Preparation:
Use a cast-iron Dutch oven, a stove top Dutch oven, or a large pot with a lid. Add oil to pot and heat to medium. Saute the chicken breasts for about 20 minutes, turning after 10 minutes. Remove chicken to a cutting board. Add butter to pot. Saute onions for about 5 minutes. Add flour and stir to moisten and make a rue. Add one can of broth and stir until the gravy is smooth. Add remaining vegetables, diced chicken, spices and 2nd can of broth. Stir well, bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer. Take biscuits, cut each into 4 pieces, and place them on top of the stew. Put a lid on the pot and simmer for about 10 minutes. Remove the bay leaves before serving.
Servings: 4-6

That does sound good. Also sounds like you could vary it a lot of ways according to what you liked best. I bet you could take some of those 'buttered' biscuits and use those for a nice buttery taste.

The best part is it does not even take that long! That sounds like something to add into the booklet. We keep a quick recipe guide in the car for out of the area trips, hit up the food store on the way out. T
