# Ingredients:

→ Main Ingredients

01 - 10.5 oz can of cream of celery soup
02 - 32 oz chicken stock or broth
03 - 8-count refrigerated biscuit dough
04 - 2 cups rotisserie chicken, shredded or diced
05 - Salt and black pepper, to taste
06 - All-purpose flour, for dusting the working area
07 - Fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)

# Instructions:

01 - Remove the meat from one rotisserie chicken. Shred it or chop into bite-sized pieces.
02 - In a large Dutch oven, whisk together cream of celery soup and chicken stock. Place over medium heat and bring to a gentle simmer.
03 - Open the tube of biscuit dough. Roll out each biscuit very thin on a lightly floured surface. Cut into bite-sized pieces using a pizza cutter or knife.
04 - Add the dumpling dough pieces one at a time to the simmering soup. Maintain medium heat, avoiding a vigorous boil. Ensure any excess flour is gently shaken off before adding.
05 - Stir in the shredded rotisserie chicken. Combine gently with the dumplings.
06 - Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer for 15 minutes or until the dumplings are cooked through. Season with salt and pepper to taste, garnish with parsley if desired, and serve hot.

# Notes:

01 - For an extra creamy broth, stir in a splash of heavy cream at the end of cooking or swap cream of celery soup with cream of chicken soup.
02 - Enhance the flavor by simmering with fresh thyme, parsley, or a bay leaf. Remove the bay leaf before serving.
03 - For a heartier twist, mix in frozen peas, green beans, or carrots during the last few minutes of cooking.
