Notes

If you don't have Bisquick, you can make your own. Stir together 2 cups flour + 2 teaspoons baking powder + ½ teaspoon salt. Stir in  3 Tablespoons softened butter. Then add the milk and parsley as described above. 
If you don't have cooked chicken, you can use cubed raw chicken. Or add whole chicken breasts and add an hour to the cook time. Shred the chicken before adding the dumpling mixture.
