Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
3 - 4 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts (cooled and broken into pieces) or
1 whole fryer chicken
1 10.5 oz. can condensed cream of chicken soup
2 14 oz. Cans Chicken Broth
3 Tbsp. margarine
2 cans refrigerated buttermilk biscuits (small cans)
flour
salt and pepper to taste

Directions:
Directions:
Cook chicken in about 3-4 cups water for about 30 - 45 minutes. Remove, cool and break into bite size pieces. Place both cans of chicken broth in a medium to large size pot. Add cream of chicken soup and bring to a boil. While mixture comes to a boil open biscuits and cut into pieces, and break your chicken into bite size pieces or shred. Add about 1 cup of flour to a small bowl and dip each biscuit piece into flour. Shake off excess, drop into hot broth one at a time. (Coating in flour keeps them from sticking to each other) Continue with remaining biscuit pieces until you have dropped all of the biscuits into the broth. Using a wooden spoon or a spatula push the biscuit pieces down gently under the broth. Try not to stir the mixture too much; just every once and a while push the dumplings down into the broth. Cook for about 10-15 minutes and then add the 3 tablespoons of margarine and the chicken; stir to mix and cook an additional 10 minutes. Keep warm and serve.
