Slow Cooker Chicken And Dumplings

Over the many years I have been cooking I have tried and tried to come up with a delicious chicken and dumpling recipe for the slow cooker or crock pot and here it is. I promise if you follow the recipe carefully your chicken and dumplings will turn out perfect every time.

I use a lot of flavorful ingredients in my recipe that you may find unusual in a chicken and dumpling recipe but I promise if you give it a try you'll be delightfully surprised at the wonderful flavors you will experience when you taste these oh so wonderful chicken and dumplings.

I love Yukon Gold Potatoes and I have included them here in this recipe. If you can't find Yukon Gold Potatoes you can substitute other potatoes. But try to find the Yukon Gold Potatoes if you can.

Also check in your supermarkets produce section for fresh thyme and rosemary if they have it. If they don't then go with dried spices but the fresh spices will give you flavor you won't find any where else.

For Your Crock Pot Chicken And Dumplings you will need.

1. 6 - 8 Skinless Boneless Chicken Breast Half's cut into one inch cubes.

2. 4 Small Yukon Potatoes peeled and cut into one inch cubes.

3. 1 1/2 Cups Whole Baby Carrots and Green English Peas.

4. 1/2 Cup Of Celery diced in small pieces.

5. 2 Cans Regular Campbell's Condensed Cream Of Chicken Soup.

6. 1 Cup Chicken Broth. ( Full Flavor not low fat )

7. 1 Tablespoon Fresh Chopped Thyme.( Use 1 Teaspoon Dried Thyme )

8. 1 Tablespoon Fresh Chopped Rosemary. ( Use 1 Teaspoon Dried Rosemary )

9. 1 Teaspoon Ground Sea Salt.

10. 1 Teaspoon Black Pepper.

11. 2 Cups Bisquick (TM) Baking Mix.

12. 2/3 Cup Whole Milk.

You can if you wish add a 1/2 cup of onions to this recipe. I have made it with the onions and with out.

Place your chicken , potatoes , carrots , peas , and celery into a 6 quart slow cooker or crock pot. Stir your spices and soup mix up in a bowl and pour it into the crock pot or slow cooker.

Place the lid on your crock pot or slow cooker and cook for 7 - 8 hours on low until your chicken is cooked thoroughly.

Turn your crock pot or slow cooker up to high and let it get hot. In a bowl combine your baking mix and the milk and mix well. When the crock pot is hot drop the baking mix into the pot by the tablespoon full into the crock pot. Leave your crock pot lid ajar and let the dumplings cook until they are thoroughly cooked in the center.

These chicken and dumplings are wonderful served in a bowl over a square of cornbread made from Jiffy Cornbread Mix. The flavors are oh so wonderful and go together perfectly.
