Somebody inquired about a slow cooker version of chicken ‘n dumplings recently, and I forgot who it was but I found my recipe and this is what my family is having tonight. It’s a simple recipe that I just tweaked a bit, but it really is close to the real thing your mama made. Enjoy!
Makes 4 to 6 servings
Ingredients:
1 lb. chicken breast
olive oil or vegetable oil (2 tablespoons)
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 can cream of chicken soup
2 soup cans water
4 teaspoons all-purpose flour
2 chicken bouillon granule cubes
black pepper (eye ball- about 1/2 teaspoon)
1 can refrigerated buttermilk biscuits (8 biscuits)
Directions:
1. Chop chicken breasts into 1-inch bites and cook through in skillet with oil
2. Place chicken in slow cooker
3. Mix the rest of the ingredients (except biscuits) in slow cooker with the chicken
4. Cut biscuits into quarters and gently stir into mixture. Cook on LOW 4-6 hours
*If you have a newer Crock-Pot, 4 hours is sufficient. I would even check before that so that you don’t end up with “chicken ‘n biscuits” rather than “chicken ‘n dumplings.”
