Slow Cooker Chicken and Dumplings

This Slow Cooker Chicken and Dumplings is the perfect family-friendly and super easy dinner idea you need to try. I love my slow cooker and use it all the time and this has always been a favorite slow cooker recipe of mine.

Cooking these chicken and dumplings in the slow cooker made our chicken so tender and juicy!

I’ve been making this recipe for years and love it more and more each time I make it. If you like this recipe and want to find even more slow cooker recipes make sure to stop by my slow cooker page under recipes.

You all know I love an easy recipe! I even added some baby carrots to this meal This way I didn’t have to make a side veggie! Everything was cooking together. I also used refrigerated biscuits to make this meal even easier to put together.

How to make Slow Cooker Chicken and Dumplings:

Place all ingredients into your slow cooker except for the biscuits. When you have about 30 minutes left to finish the dish, you will add the biscuits on top to form the dumplings.

Ingredients:

• Chicken Breasts – boneless and skinless in the crockpot.
• Butter – You can use salted or unsalted butter for this recipe. It does not matter.
• Cream of Chicken Soup – this will be 2 cans of the standard 10.5oz size.
• Onion – diced small so you do not have big bites of onion in it.
• Baby Carrots – These are best for this recipe, so you do not have to prep and cut full size carrots.
• Chicken Broth – I used a low sodium chicken broth.
• Refrigerated Biscuit Dough – I used two cans of premade store-bought biscuits.
• Salt
• Pepper

Directions:

Step One: Place your chicken, butter, cream of chicken soup, onion, and carrots into your slow cooker. Then pour chicken broth over ingredients.

Cooking Directions:

Step Two: Cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 4-5 hours.

Step Three: Once everything is cooked finish the recipe by adding torn pieces of refrigerated biscuit dough and allow to cook for 30 more minutes.

Step Four: Serve when chicken and biscuits are fully cooked.

Common Questions:

Can I double this recipe: In my 6-quart slow cooker after the biscuits cooked it was pretty full and I would not have been able to double it.

Can I skip the cream of chicken soup: I love the creamy flavor the soup gives this recipe. You instead can use a homemade version made with broth, cream, and flour.

How to freeze this recipe: Once your recipe is fully cooked allow it to cool completely. Once cooled place it in a freezer-safe airtight container. Freeze for up to 3 months then place in the fridge to defrost overnight. Reheat on the stovetop and add more broth as needed.
