Today's recipe is such an easy comfort food dinner!

This Instant Pot Chicken and Dumplings is simple, ready in about 30 minutes and kids love it!

The dumplings are made from canned biscuit dough, which is a time saver for those busy weeknights. We use fresh veggies, but frozen would be a good substitute for another time saver. Either chicken breast or chicken thighs work great in this recipe.

Even though this recipe is simple, it turns out so flavorful. It's especially perfect for cold or rainy days when you want something to warm you up.

Instant Pot Chicken and Dumplings

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 onion, diced
• 3 stalks celery, diced
• 1 cup diced carrots
• 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
• 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 cups chicken broth
• 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into bite size pieces
• 1 - 10.2 ounce can refrigerated homestyle biscuits, cut into pieces
• ½ cup heavy cream

Instructions

1. Set the electric pressure cooker to saute and heat until hot. Add the butter and the vegetables. Cook for about 6 minutes or until softened. Stir in the poultry seasoning, salt and pepper.
2. Deglaze the pressure cooker liner with chicken broth, scraping the bottom with a wooden spoon to remove any cooked on pieces.
3. Add the chicken. Cover and set to “pressure cook” or “manual” for 3 minutes. Perform a quick release of the steam.
4. Cancel the “keep warm” cycle and program the “saute” mode.
5. Cut each biscuit into 9 pieces and drop into the pot. As you drop the biscuit pieces into the pressure cooker, stir often to keep the biscuits from sticking together.
6. Stir in the cream and continue cooking for 5 to 6 minutes or until the biscuits are cooked through and the broth has thickened.

Notes

Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to three days.
