1

In 12-inch skillet, mix sauce mix (from Hamburger Helper box), hot water, milk, butter and vegetables. Heat to boiling, stirring occasionally. Stir in uncooked pasta (from Hamburger Helper box) and chicken. Return to boiling. Reduce heat; simmer uncovered 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Meanwhile, cut biscuits into fourths. Place biscuits on hot mixture. Cover; cook over medium heat 10 to 12 minutes or until biscuits are no longer doughy in center.

Remove from heat. Sprinkle with parsley and paprika.

Be sure to place the biscuits over a boiling-hot chicken mixture; the heat from the hot mixture starts to cook the dumplings quickly and assures they won't be doughy.
