Chicken and Dumplings

Ingredients

• 2 cans of Grand's Original Biscuits
• 
  Large container of chicken broth
• 2 cans of cream of chicken
• Generous amount of flour
• 5 chicken breast tenderloins
• Small amount of milk
• Small amount of butter
• Salt and pepper
  

Directions

1. 
   Place the large container of chicken broth and the 2 cans of cream of chicken into a large pot.
2. Bring this mixture to a boil. While waiting, roll out the biscuit dough in your flour, and cut it into small, thin pieces.
   
3. Once boiling, place the flour-covered biscuits into the pot.
4. Let this boil for about 20 minutes. Don't stir too often or the biscuits will clump together rather than forming as small, individual pieces.
5. While your dumplings are forming, place your chicken breast tenderloins in a separate pot. Use your favorite seasonings to enhance the flavor.
6. 
   Once the dumplings are almost fully cooked, place the cooked chicken in the pot with the dumplings.
7. Let everything continue to cook for a few more minutes.
8. Add milk, butter, salt, and pepper to taste.
