Our set used to be smart, but two things made it no longer so. A good
while ago, Amazon declared that they would no longer support Amazon
Prime streaming on our model, a Panasonic. As a consolation, they
offered us a fire stick for $5 versus the usual price of $29.99. It
could get Prime if it was hooked to the internet somehow. Then when we
moved to our retirement community they have a mass business type account
with Comcast to provide TV services over cable. BUT, that cable does
not have internet. Our internet service is via a WiFi system with an
access point installed in the ceiling of the apartment. It may be
possible to jury-rig an internet connection for the TV over that WiFi,
but I don't know how, and I don't really care.
1 1/2 c Cooked chicken, cubed
1 c Frozen mixed vegetables
2 cn 10oz cream of chicken
-mushroom, or celery soup
1/3 c Milk
MMMMM-------------------------DUMPLINGS------------------------------
3/4 c Original bisquick mix
1/4 c Milk
ds Paprika if desired
Cube the chicken.
In a 3 QUART sauce pan heat the two cans of condensed soups along
with the 1/3 cup milk and mixed vegetables to a boil, add chicken.
Stir frequently.
Note: Used 4 quart pan - dumplings took 5 min longer.
Mix together the bisquick and milk until soft dough forms. Drop
dough by 6 spoonfuls onton chicken mixture (do not drop directly into
liquid) Sprinkle with paprika.
Cook uncovered over low heat for 10 minutes. Cover and continue
cooking for another 10 minutes.
Tested 4/5/06 Dumplings fluffy and fully cooked. Will try again.
NOTE TO SELF Tested this - originally called for 1 1/2 milk instead of
second can of soup. Liquid too thin - will suggest not using milk and
substituting that second can of soup instead.
