Description
A warm and comforting dish featuring tender chicken in a creamy broth and fluffy dumplings, perfect for busy evenings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts
- 2 cans cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 package refrigerated biscuit dough
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: Begin by placing your chicken in the crockpot. Add the cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, frozen mixed vegetables, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Stir gently, ensuring the chicken is well-coated with the creamy mixture.
- Cook: Cover the crockpot and set it to cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or high for 4 hours. The goal is for the chicken to reach perfect tenderness, falling apart with just a fork.
- Prepare Dumplings: About 30 minutes before serving, take the biscuit dough out of the package. Cut pieces into quarters and drop them delicately on top of the chicken mixture in the crockpot.
- Finish Cooking: Cover the crockpot again, allowing the dumplings to steam and become fluffy, which should take about 30 minutes.
- Serve Warm: Once the dumplings are cooked through, ladle the chicken and dumplings into bowls, soaking up the rich broth. The aroma will make your mouth water!
Notes
For a twist, consider adding fresh herbs or a splash of lemon juice before serving.
