Chicken and veggies are slow cooked all day to make the flavorful gravy for this Slow Cooker Chicken & Dumplings – add refrigerator biscuits to the top shortly before serving to make the “dumplings.”
Whether you call this handy little appliance a Crock Pot or a Slow Cooker — we all know it makes life easy!
It seems many people think of their slow cookers for hearty winter meals, soups, stews things of that nature. I love to use mine in the summer. It beats heating up your kitchen on those hot summer days, don’t you agree?
I found and adapted this recipe from Pinterest. My family loves Chicken and Dumplings, and this was a great easy alternative to the “from scratch” version.
It uses refrigerator biscuits for the dumplings, they are added a short while before eating.
