Easy Chicken and Dumplings

- 3 cups shredded cooked chicken
- 1 can condensed cream of chicken soup (10 ¾ oz.)
- 1/4 tsp. poultry seasoning
- 1 can Pillsbury Grands Southern Homestyle Buttermilk biscuits
- 2 medium carrots, chopped

In a large Dutch oven, heat broth, chicken, soup and poultry seasoning to boiling over medium-high heat; reduce heat to low. Cover; simmer 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Increase heat to medium-high; return to low boil. On lightly floured surface, roll or pat each biscuit to 1/8 inch thickness; cut into 1/2 inch wide strips. Drop strips, one at a time, into boiling chicken mixture. Add carrots and celery. Reduce heat to low. Cover; simmer 15-20 minutes, stirring occasional to prevent dumplings from sticking.
