Method
 

How to Make Chicken and Dumpling Casserole
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and melt a stick of butter in a 9x13-inch casserole dish.
  2. Layer shredded chicken evenly over the melted butter, creating a hearty foundation.
  3. Spoon the finely chopped vegetables—onions and bell peppers—over the chicken, distributing them evenly.
  4. Sprinkle poultry seasoning and freshly ground pepper on top of the veggies.
  5. Whisk together Bisquick flour, milk, and salt in a bowl until just combined; pour this mixture over the layered vegetables.
  6. Combine cream of chicken soup with chicken stock and whisk until smooth; pour this mixture over the Bisquick layer.
  7. Bake the casserole for 1 hour or until golden brown and set, checking that the top is firm to the touch.
