Hello, It’s Susan. I’m back today sharing a super easy dinner idea – slow cooker chicken and dumplings. This is perfect for those busy days when you are working late and want to have dinner ready but don’t have lots of time. Just a few minutes of prep and you’re good to go!
- 2 cans of cream of mushroom or cream chicken, or celery.
- Can of water
- ½ diced onion
- three garlic cloves chopped
- 8oz bag of baby carrots sliced
- Cup of frozen peas
- 3-4 chicken breasts (halves) chicken breast
- Grands refrigerated rolls
- Add onion, carrots, and garlic to the crockpot.
- Add both cans of soup and one can of water.
- Add chicken.
- If chicken is frozen cook on high for 3-4 hours.
- If fresh, cook on low for 3-4 hours.
- Last hour turn on high, add the peas and put the rolls on top of the ingredients and let cook for one hour.
- They will be cooked through but soft and dumpling like.
This makes a great home cooked meal when you are busy and the leftovers are great! My oldest son doesn’t like the biscuits soft so I keep a couple out and bake his. You think they are not going to cook in there but they turn our great! Just be sure to put it on high for the last hour. They raise and stick to the sides of the crockpot so by the time they are done cooking they barely touch the mixture under them.

Looks delish but when do you shred the chicken?
Jenn Lifford says
After it’s cooked, I kind of take the biscuits off the top and put them on plates and then shred the chicken and put the mixture on the biscuits.
