Easy Chicken and Dumplings Recipe for Two is super simple, made in one pot, full of flavor, and quite comforting. Boneless chicken is simmered in one pan with celery, carrots, and onion with savory seasonings and topped with fluffy biscuit type dumplings.
Dice the chicken, celery, onion, and carrots. A filet knife is perfect for cutting through chicken.
In a medium sized pot boil the chicken broth, chicken, celery, onions, and carrots for 15 minutes.
Stir in the cream of chicken soup, sage, salt and pepper, and then bring back to a boil.
In a medium bowl mix together the Jiffy baking mix (see notes below) and milk forming sticky batter. Divide the batter into 4 equal portions and drop by spoonfuls onto the hot mixture.
Cook uncovered for 10 minutes over low heat.
Cover and cook 10 more minutes.

Notes
You can make a homemade baking mix to replace the Jiffy mix in this recipe. In a medium bowl, add 3/4 cup flour, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/2 tablespoon baking powder, 1/8 cup shortening. Cut in shortening with a pastry blender until combined and no large pieces of shortening remain.
