What can be better on a cold, gloomy day than a steaming pot of everyones favorite classic, chicken and dumplings. It screams comfort food and is so cozy and satisfying. This southern cuisine recipe however has a modern twist to it. It is made in an instant pot using pre made, canned biscuits.
The dish that used to take hours at the hot stove comes together in a matter of minutes thanks to the magic of the instant pot. But there is absolutely no sacrifices in the flavor department.
Soft, pillow like biscuits are cooked to perfection, soaking in the flavorful chicken broth infused with herbs and are accompanied by lean chicken meat and vegetables. All the complimenting flavors with delicately tasting biscuits really caring out the other flavors beautifully. This meal will fix the carb cravings in no time.
To make this dish is a breeze, I am addicted to the convenience of the pressure cooker. I prefer using refrigerated buttermilk biscuits or southern homestyle biscuits and try avoiding the biscuits that are flaky they do not work in an instant pot. Everything is done in the same pot as a quick shortcut. With minimal clean up this recipe is a pleasure to make. And it is always a huge hit. People can’t get enough of it. With just a handful of basic ingredients this dish comes together in a short 20 minutes and feeds a family of 4. Follow the simple instructions below to recreate this wonderful recipe.
