Description
A classic American comfort food dish featuring tender shredded chicken, savory vegetables, and soft biscuit dumplings simmered in a rich, creamy chicken broth. Perfect for a hearty, one-pot meal that’s simple and satisfying.
Ingredients
2 lbs chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
1 medium onion, finely diced
2 cans (10.5 oz each) cream of chicken soup, low-sodium preferred
4 cups chicken broth, high-quality
12 oz biscuit dough (canned or refrigerated)
Instructions
Dice the onion into small pieces.
Place the chicken breasts and diced onion in the bottom of your slow cooker.
Pour the cream of chicken soup into the slow cooker, then add the chicken broth.
Stir the mixture gently to combine.
Cover and cook on low heat for 7 to 8 hours.
In the final 30 minutes of cooking, roll out the biscuit dough and cut into 8 to 12 small pieces (dumplings).
Drop the dumplings into the slow cooker, cover, and continue cooking for the remaining time.
Once the chicken is tender, shred it with two forks and gently stir in the dumplings.
Ladle the dish into bowls and serve warm.
Notes
Chicken thighs can be substituted for chicken breasts if preferred
For a thicker soup, you can add a slurry by mixing cornstarch with a little water before adding it to the crockpot
For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free biscuit dough
