Equipment

  • Pressure cooker

Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp Butter
  • 1/2 Yellow Onion, Diced
  • 4 Stalks Celery, Diced
  • 2 Tbsp Garlic, Minced
  • 3 Large Chicken Breasts, cut into 4 or 5 large chunks each
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp Poultry Seasoning
  • Salt and Pepper, to taste
  • 2 Tsp Fresh Rosemary, chopped
  • 2 Tsp Fresh Parsley, chopped, plus more for garnish (optional)
  • 3 Cups Low Sodium Chicken Broth
  • 1 Cup Water
  • 2 1/4 Cup Bisquick Biscuit Mix
  • 2/3 Cup 2% Milk
  • 2 16 oz bags Frozen Mixed Diced Veggies (peas, corn, green beans, carrots)
  • 2 10 oz Cans Low Sodium Cream of Chicken Soup

Instructions

  • Turn on electric pressure cooker to the saute setting over medium-high heat.
  • Melt butter in the pressure cooker. Once melted, add onion, celery and garlic. Saute approximately 5 minutes or until slightly softened.
  • Add chicken chunks and seasonings. Saute another 5 minutes, mixing to combine all ingredients.
  • Add chicken broth and water. Put pressure cooking lid on, ensuring the valve is set to the sealed position. Pressure cook on high for 7 minutes, then allow to naturally release 10 minutes before quick releasing remaining pressure.
  • While chicken is pressure cooking, mix Biscuick and milk together in a bowl until dumpling dough is formed.
  • After releasing pressure, remove all chicken from the broth to a bowl or plate and set aside.
  • Scoop mixed dumpling dough into the pot by the tablespoonful. Add frozen veggies at this point. Put pressure cooking lid back onto the pot and turn the valve to the sealed position. Pressure cook on high for 5 minutes, then allow to naturally release 10 minutes before quick releasing remaining pressure.
  • While dumplings cook, shred chicken.
  • After releasing pressure, add chicken back to the pot and stir in cream of chicken soup, ensuring to combine with all other ingredients. Simmer on medium, stirring frequently until all ingredients are heated through.
  • Serve hot, top with parsley (optional), and enjoy!
