Instant Pot Chicken and Dumplings - Perfect for Beginners

Chicken and Dumplings might be one of my new favorites! This recipe is basic that even those that are new or a beginner will be able to make it! And if you are wondering.... the biscuits just a tad soggy, tastes AMAZING!

Find the whole recipe here:

Ingredients:
2 tsp Olive Oil
1 Tbsp Butter
1 small Onion, diced
1 cup Carrots, chopped (about 2 or 3 carrots)
1 cup Celery, chopped (2 stalks)
3 large cloves Garlic, pressed or minced (about 1 Tbsp)
1 tsp Salt (more to taste)
1/2 tsp Pepper
1/4 tsp Poultry Seasoning
1/2 tsp Sage, dried
1/2 tsp Tyme dried
1 4" sprig Fresh Rosemary, 2 tsp leaves, stripped off and minced (or 1 tsp dried & crushed)
4 cups Chicken Broth, low sodium
1 large Potato, chopped
1 1/2 lbs Chicken breasts, cut in slightly larger than bite sized pieces

To Finish

1 cup Frozen Peas (or mixed vegetables)
1/2 cup Heavy Cream
6 Jjumbo Canned Buttermilk Refrigerator Biscuits (16 oz pkg contains 8)

Directions:

Roll each canned biscuit one flat and cut into 6 equal slices. Do this to all 6 and set aside in a bowl. You can also just cut them and not roll them flat.
Prepare the Chicken and Sauce
Turn the pressure cooker on to the Sauté setting. When the pot is hot, add the olive oil and the butter. Then add the onion and and stir.
Add the carrot, celery, and garlic. Cook for a few minutes, scraping the bottom of the pot to get up any brown bits (deglaze).
Add the salt, pepper, poultry seasoning, sage, thyme, and rosemary. Cook for a few seconds to let the spices become fragrant.
Add the chicken broth. Put a glass lid on the pot and let the contents warm up to barely a simmer.
Add the potato and chicken and stir.
Cook for 10-15 minutes. When it is done, do a quick release and take off the lid.

Add the sliced biscuits into the broth and gently stir to distribute them.
Press the cancel function.
Place the lid on the pot and lock in place. Turn the steam release knob to the sealing position.
Press the Pressure Cook/Manual button (or dial) and then the + or - button (or dial) to select 10 minutes.

When the cooking cycle has finished, do a Quick Release.
When the pin in the lid drops down, open the lid carefully, and stir in the frozen peas or mixed vegetables.
Stir in the heavy cream (if using) and put the glass lid on to let it sit and heat through.
Taste and adjust salt, if needed.

I’m a recent widower. I’ve never cooked a day in my life but now it’s my job to cook for my family. Your videos have helped me a lot come up with good meals my family love

I started making this for my wife's Birthday since it was her favorite dish. It was almost done as she walked into the door and asked me what I was making. I told her and you could see the look in her eyes. I said what? she said I don't think it will have the taste as the traditional way. So I kept on cooking and when it was done you should have seen the smile on her face. She told me this was one of the best meals I have made in a long time. She also said, don't loose that recipe.

Thank you for all your help.my daughter bought me a instant pot for Christmas and your channel has turned me into a world famous chef.All my food critic kids can no longer say there dad's food is terrible. Thank you

I've NEVER used the instant pot before, my husband usually uses it, but I've watched several of your videos today and decided to try this. THANK you so much for being detailed! This was absolutely fantastic! I think I'm going to really enjoy trying some of your recipes while I learn how to use the instant pot!

TRY THIS: Put the dry spices in first into a dry pot and 'toast' the spices. Then add in the oil & butter, then saute the onion, celery.... See if that makes a difference.

I made this tonight. I made it pretty much exactly the way the recipe called for except I added another potatoe, a little more poultry seasoning and pepper, I used the whole can of bisquits. It was the best chicken and dumplings we have ever had! I am a recent instant pot owner. My family is really enjoying all of you and your sisters recipes. Thank you!

[Cynthiav]

Thank you for this recipe, I made it for dinner tonite—hearty, perfect comfort food. Seasonings are perfect as is! My new favorite way to prepare Chicken and Dumplings!

[jameswheeleriii]

I love your videos because how easy you make preparing meals. Your presentations are always professional and fun to view. 💞

[erikanorman]

I’ve never made this and used your exact recipe and it came out perfect!! My husband even heated up the leftovers (which he doesn’t do unless it’s really good lol)

First, thank you, ladies! Awesome channel! I have been watching for a while. My crock pot stoneware has cracked and It was the push I needed. I got my instant pot and of course, chicken and dumplings is my favorite! My wife is an extremely picky eater ... ugg! But this is one of thing, she repeatedly asks me to make. I saw someone post about substituting the "canned biscuits." I agree, they are easy... but switching it with Bisquick makes a HUGE difference. I would also switch the cream for a can of campbell's cream of chicken soup.

Your video was the best I’ve seen! Didn’t miss a step and I loved how you just stuck with the topic and didn’t go on and on about other things that weren’t relevant 🤣! Thanks so much! You have a new follower.

[vernarayman]

Just made my first batch of chicken and dumplings and it's amazing. Thank you for making it so easy.

[EtzEchad]

I love chicken and dumplings! I made a similar recipe like this a while back, but it didn't have the heavy cream. That has got to make it even better! I will try this recipe soon.

Thanks for your videos.

[Lynnejujus]

[desirayortega]

Just made this for dinner tonight with my own twist...and it was amazing! Thanks for the recipe

Substitutions: Due to lack of availability with some of the ingredients, Tonight I substituted frozen chicken tenderloins for chicken breasts. I had them thawing for about 2 hours before cutting them into small chunks. They were still mostly solid but since they are smaller thinner pieces, the cooking time was about the same. I think I did 18 minutes instead of 15 for the first round.

I also used pillsbury crescent rolls instead of the biscuits. The crescent rolls were rolled out, cut up and arranged the same way as the instructions.

The end result was a softer dumpling that was definitely cooked all the way through. Hope this is helpful!

Looks soooo good. My husband loves Chicken and Dumplings. He just picks out all the vegetables... lol More for me 😁

[ATbitfiddler]

I made this recipe a few days ago with chicken thighs instead of white meat chicken in a three quart IP I kind of overdid it on the dumplings! I shared it with some friends who both thought it was great. I had to do some finagling because it was bone in skin on and frozen to begin with so I use some of your tricks that you’ve shown in the last year and it turned out pretty good thank you

[melanieford]

Made this about 3x now. My family loves it. Never any leftover.
