Tips from the Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Rotisserie chicken or any leftover cooked chicken or turkey works well in these Cheesy Chicken and Dumplings.
  • tip 2
    Stirring in some of the milk slowly at first prevents the sauce from clumping.
  • tip 3
    Top your Cheesy Chicken and Dumplings with chopped fresh parsley for a pretty garnish.
