try chopping up a few chicken breasts and boiling it in about 1 cup chicken broth and two cups water. add about 2 tbsp of sage and salt and pepper to taste. You could add a little celery salt, too if you want. take a can of biscuits or make some bisquick dough (pkg instructions). Either cut canned biscuits into 4's and drop in boiling chicken or drop in dough 1 tbsp at a time. let boil until dumplings are fluffy in the middle, then serve.


ps- sage is always good in chicken dishes :)
