Chicken and dumplings are a quintessential Southern comfort food. My Instant Pot version is loaded with chicken, veggies, dumplings, and all the flavor that you've come to expect from this wonderful dish.

Ingredients

  • 4 large boneless skinless chicken breasts (cubed, approx. 2 lbs chicken breasts)
  • ¼ cup fresh parsley (chopped, may replace with 2-3 tablespoons dried parsley)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon Better Than Bouillon (roasted chicken flavor)
  • 1 cup yellow onion (chopped)
  • 1 cup celery (chopped)
  • 2 cups frozen peas and carrots
  • 3 cups unsalted chicken stock
  • 2 cans cream of chicken soup (10.5 ounces)
  • 1 can biscuits (I prefer Pillsbury Grands! Southern Homestyle Biscuits)

Directions

  1. 1

    Add the cubed chicken, parsley, garlic, thyme, pepper and bouillon in the Instant Pot and mix all ingredients well.

    Next add all the vegetables (onion, celery, peas, and carrots) to the Instant Pot and mix everything together.

  3. 3

    Pour the chicken stock into the pot and mix once again.

    Now pour the two cans of cream of chicken over the chicken and dumplings mixture. Do not mix the cream of chicken with the other ingredients.
