Gluten-free chicken and dumplings is a super easy one-pot dinner ready in just 35 minutes! This recipe also includes a dairy-free option.
Servings: 6 servings
Ingredients
Chicken
- 3-4 cups cooked skinless chicken breasts diced (I like to use chicken from a rotisserie chicken I buy at Walmart (traditional flavor) or Costco. Or I boil the chicken breasts. )
- 4 cups gluten-free chicken broth
- 2 cups gluten-free frozen mixed vegetables
- 1 tablespoon sage dried
- 1 tablespoon thyme dried
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups milk dairy-free use cashew, coconut or almond milk
- 6 tablespoons gluten-free cornstarch
Dumplings
- 1 1/2 cups Bisquick Gluten Free mix
- 2 eggs whisked
- 2/3 cup milk dairy-free use cashew, coconut or almond milk
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter melted (dairy-free use Smart Balance/Earth Balance butter or coconut oil)
Instructions
- In a large pot add chicken broth, diced chicken, frozen vegetables, sage, thyme and onion powder. Bring to a low boil over medium heat.
- In a small bowl add milk and cornstarch together and stir until the cornstarch is dissolved.
- Pour milk mixture into the large pot with the chicken broth and stir until fully combined. Continue to boil.
- In a medium-sized bowl whisk eggs.
- Add gluten-free Bisquick to eggs and stir.
- Add melted butter and milk to the Bisquick mixture and stir until fully combined. The batter will be sticky.
- Drop heaping spoonfuls into the chicken broth mixture. (I like to use an ice cream scoop because I like my dumplings big.)
- Reduce heat to low and cook for 10 minutes.
- Cover and cook for an additional 15 minutes.
- Remove from heat and serve.
- Enjoy!
- Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated.

Notes
One of the shortcuts that I use to make my chicken and dumplings so easy, is that I buy a gluten-free rotisserie chicken and use the already cooked meat. It makes it easy peasy! Otherwise, I just boil a few chicken breasts and then dice them up.
For dairy-free option: I like to cook and bake with Smart Balance butter and almond, cashew or coconut milk.
Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated.
Pro Tip: I like to use an ice cream scoop because I like my dumplings big and fluffy.
