" Quick low calorie recipe for chicken & dumplings..."
If you're a fan of old-fashioned chicken & dumplings but not a fan of the amount of time and energy it takes to make them - as well as the typically high number of calories they contain, then I hope that this low calorie, low fat recipe for chicken & dumplings will hit the spot - in saving time and calories.
From start to finish, allow 20 minutes (15 minutes of cooking time and about 5 minutes of preparation time).
Serve with English peas and hot rolls and you've got a meal fit for a Diet King (or Queen).
Add about 1 quart of water to a deep 2-quart pot. Add 1 Tablespoon of olive oil which will help prevent sticking. Next, add 1 cup of cubed raw chicken (white or dark meat - no skin and no bones). While chicken is cooking - and it will cook quite swiftly, mix the following in a small, deep bowl with a spoon:
1 1/2 cups of low fat baking mix
1 teaspoon of dried parsley
1/2 cup of skim milk (use more if dough is too thick AND if dough is too thin, simply add a bit more baking mix)
Mix until a dough forms, then use hands to form balls (dumplings) about the size of a golf ball.
Add 3 chicken bullion cubes to the pot containing the chicken, then carefully add the dumplings one at a time. It's important to add one at a time to prevent them from mutating into one large basketball.
Cook on low for 10 minutes or until dumplings are cooked through and through. Dumplings will float at the top of the pot while cooking and by the end of the 10 minutes, a thick gravy will have formed. The gravy will get a bit thicker after pot is removed from the stove top. Entire pot contains about 1,000 calories and contains 4 - 6 generous servings.
