TURKEY AND DUMPLINGS WITH BISCUITS RECIPES

Steps:

• In 4- or 5-quart Dutch oven, melt butter over medium heat. Add onion; cook 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender. Add broth, cream cheese, salt and pepper; cook until cream cheese has melted and broth is boiling, stirring occasionally. Increase heat to medium-high; stir in turkey and mixed vegetables. Heat to a simmer; reduce heat to medium-low. Cook until thoroughly heated.
• Separate dough into 8 biscuits; sprinkle with flour until biscuits are evenly coated. Roll or pat each biscuit to 1/8 inch thick; cut into 1/2-inch-wide strips, tossing with flour as you go. Drop strips, one at a time, into hot turkey mixture.
• Cover; simmer 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until biscuits are no longer doughy.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large stockpot over medium-high heat until it begins to smoke. Add celery, carrots, onion, and bell pepper. Stir using a wooden spoon until vegetables begin to soften, 5 to 8 minutes.
• Add garlic to the pot and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add butter and stir until melted and coating all the veggies, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in salt and pepper. Add potatoes and flour; stir until veggies are coated and are beginning to form a creamy texture, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in water, cream of chicken soup, lemon juice, chicken bouillon, poultry seasoning, cayenne pepper, and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.
• Add chicken to the pot. Simmer soup, uncovered, until broth is reduced and thickened, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, open biscuits and slice each piece of dough in half. Add biscuit pieces to the top of the soup. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 8 minutes.
• Remove cover and turn each biscuit over. Cover the pot and simmer 8 minutes more. Serve in bowls with biscuits on the bottom.
