Chicken and Dumpling Casserole
The secret of this is not to stir anything. That's what makes your dumplings. When you dish it out, you have your dumplings on top.
2 chicken breasts, cooked and shredded ( I use a store bought rotisserie chicken or the large can of chicken)
2 cups chicken broth
1/2 stick of butter
2 cups Bisquick
2 cups whole milk
1 can cream of chicken soup (the herbed cream of chicken soup if you can find it)
3 teaspoons of chicken granules (I use Wylers)
1/2 teaspoon dried sage
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon of salt or more to taste
Directions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Layer 1 - In 9 x 13 casserole dish, melt 1/2 stick of butter. Spread shredded chicken over butter. Sprinkle black pepper and dried sage over this layer. Do not stir.
Layer 2 - In small bowl, mix milk and Bisquick. Slowly pour all over chicken. Do not stir.
Layer 3 - In medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups of chicken broth, chicken granules and soup. Once blended, slowly pour over the Bisquick layer. Do not Stir.
Bake casserole for 30-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown

This is another recipe that Bobby loves. He loves anything that is spicy and this is really spicy. If you don't like it as hot cut back on the amount of hot sauce you use. You might have to make it a couple of times to find the correct amount of hot sauce to use.
Loaded Potato and Buffalo Chicken
Casserole:
2 pounds boneless chicken breasts, cubed
(1")
8-10 medium potatoes, cut in 1/2" cubes
1/3 cup olive oil
1&1/2 tsp salt
1 Tbsp. black pepper
1 Tbsp. paprika
2 Tbsp. garlic powder
6 Tbsp. hot sauce
8-10 medium potatoes, cut in 1/2" cubes
1/3 cup olive oil
1&1/2 tsp salt
1 Tbsp. black pepper
1 Tbsp. paprika
2 Tbsp. garlic powder
6 Tbsp. hot sauce
Topping:
2 cups fiesta blend cheese(I have used Pepper Jack Cheese)
1 cup crumbled bacon
1 cup diced green onion
2 cups fiesta blend cheese(I have used Pepper Jack Cheese)
1 cup crumbled bacon
1 cup diced green onion
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Spray a
9X13" baking dish with cooking spray. In a large bowl mix together the
olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder and hot sauce. Add the cubed
potatoes and stir to coat. Carefully scoop the potatoes into the prepared
baking dish, leaving behind as much of the olive oil/hot sauce mixture as
possible. Bake the potatoes for 45-50 minutes, stirring every 10-15 minutes,
until cooked through and crispy and browned on the outside. While the potatoes
are cooking, add the cubed chicken to the bowl with the left over olive oil/hot
sauce mixture and stir to coat. Once the potatoes are fully cooked, remove from
the oven and lower the oven temperature to 400 degrees. Top the cooked potatoes
with the raw marinated chicken. In a bowl mix together the cheese, bacon and
green onion and top the raw chicken with the cheese mixture. Return the
casserole to the oven and bake for 15 minutes or until chicken is cooked through
and the topping is bubbly delicious.
