Crock pot Chicken and Dumplings Recipe
Description
This recipe involves placing chicken breasts and mixed frozen vegetables in a slow cooker with cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, and seasonings including garlic salt, poultry seasoning, salt, and black pepper. The ingredients cook for several hours until the chicken is tender and fully cooked. After shredding the chicken, it is returned to the pot. Canned biscuit dough is cut into quarters and laid on top, then cooked on high for an additional 60 to 90 minutes until the biscuits form soft dumplings, absorbing some of the broth and thickening the dish.
The resulting dish combines tender shredded chicken, vegetables, and soft, fluffy dumplings in a creamy broth, suitable as a comforting meal. Modifications to vegetable choices can be made depending on availability, including fresh or frozen options.
Leftover portions should be refrigerated in airtight containers and consumed within about a week. This meal requires minimal hands-on time, making it convenient for planning ahead.
