CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS IN FOIL PACKETS

Why I Love This Recipe
This chicken packet recipe is delicious and flexible. My son compared it to chicken pot pie. I am known to use what I have on hand.
Ingredients You'll Need
Heavy Duty Aluminum Foil
1 (10-3/4 oz.) cream of chicken soup
1/2 tsp. dried thyme--divided
2 ribs celery, chopped
2 carrots, diced
1 small onion, chopped
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into thin strips
1-1/2 cup baking mix (like Bisquick)
3/4 cup water
Directions
Preheat oven to 450.
Tear off 4 (12-x18-inch) foil sheets. Coat foil with vegetable cooking spray.
Stir together soup, 1/4 tsp. thyme, celery, carrot, and onion.
Spoon evenly on foil sheets, and top evenly with chicken.
Stir together biscuit mix, 3/4 cup water, and remaining 1/4 tsp. thyme.
Spoon evenly on top of chicken.
Bring up 2 sides of each foil sheet, and double fold with about 1-inch-wide folds.
Double fold each end to form a packet, leaving room for heat circulation inside packet.
Place foil packets on a baking sheet.
Bake at 450 for 22 minutes.
Open foil packets carefully, allowing steam to escape
