Chicken & Dumplings are one of my favorite comfort foods from my childhood but my mom’s recipe takes way too long for my busy life. So I had to find shortcuts. This dinner has turned into one of my family’s favorites and they start asking for it when school starts up. I have them all trained- they know when school starts up the crockpot comes out.
Ingredients:
3-4 frozen or fresh chicken breasts
1 chicken bullion cube, crushed
1/2 tsp pepper
2 cans cream of chicken soup
2 cans chicken broth
1 bag frozen mixed vegetables
1 can refrigerated biscuits, quartered
Directions:
1. Place chicken breasts in bottom of crockpot.
2. Mix soups and broths together and pour over chicken.
3. Add crushed bullion and pepper.
4. Cover and cook on Low for 6 hours.
5. Shred chicken and return to crockpot; mix well.
6. Stir in frozen mixed vegetables.
7. Drop quartered biscuits into crockpot one by one making sure each gets covered.
8. Cover and continue cooking for 1 hour.
Doesn’t that look delicious? It really is the perfect comfort food for chilly Fall nights. We typically have no leftovers at all when I make this for dinner. It’s that good. Don’t skip the bullion cube, it really adds a ton of flavor!
