Crock Pot Chicken and Dumplings
1. Introduction
Chicken and Dumplings is a historic staple of farmhouse cooking, prized for its ability to stretch a few ingredients into a massive, filling meal. By using a slow cooker, you allow the chicken to become incredibly tender while the dumplings steam to perfection in the residual heat of the sauce. This version uses a creamy base to ensure every bite is succulent and flavorful.
2. Ingredients
The Protein: 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs.
The Creamy Base: 2 cans (10.5 oz each) condensed cream of chicken soup and 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth.
The Dumplings: 1 can (16.3 oz) refrigerated flaky layers biscuits (cut into quarters) or homemade drop biscuit dough.
Aromatics: 1 small onion (finely diced), 2 stalks celery (sliced), and 2 carrots (peeled and sliced).
Herbs & Seasoning: 1 tsp dried parsley, 1/2 tsp dried thyme, salt, and black pepper to taste.
