Slow Cooker Chicken and Dumplings Recipe
I love chicken and dumpling recipes! It is a comfort food that never disappoints! Normally, this is made on the stove top, but it was hot and I wanted a slow cooker option. After realizing all the slow cooker options had Campbell’s soup (sodium bomb!!!) I decided to come up with my own, healthier version! So lets get started on this comfort food slow cooker chicken and dumplings recipe!
Easy Slow Cooker Recipes
Whether in the heat of the summer and you don’t want to heat up your kitchen or you want something warm and delicious to eat after a long day at work, this is an easy slow cooker recipe! And I always try to provide great options for the slow cooker! Most importantly, chicken and dumplings always hit the spot!
Slow Cooker Chicken and Dumplings
Equipment
- Slow Cooker
Ingredients
- 3 Boneless Chicken Breast
- 1/2 Medium Onion, chopped
- 2 Carrots, peeled and chopped
- 2 Stalks of celery, sliced
- 1 tbsp Minced Roasted Garlic
- Salt and Pepper to taste
- 2 32 oz Boxes of Low Sodium Chicken Broth
- 1 can Pillsbury Biscuits
- 1 12 oz jar Heinz Chicken Gravy optional, only if you want a thicker broth
- 1/2 cup Flour I dip the biscuits pieces in the flour to thicken the broth
Instructions
- Prepare the onion, carrots and celery as directed above. I use a quick manual chopper for a quick prep time! Place them evenly across the bottom of the slow cooker.
- After rinsing the chicken breast, place them on the top of the chopped veggies. Sprinkle spices and garlic evenly over the chicken. You can use poultry seasoning in place of the organic spice blend I use. Grind sea salt and pepper to taste.
- Pour chicken broth and gravy over the other ingredients and cook on low for 8 hours. Or high for 4 hours.
- 1-1.5 hours prior to serving. Cut biscuits into 4 pieces each and dip in flour. Carefully place them in the slow cooker and cook. The biscuits can take up to 1.5 hours to cook, depending on the slow cooker. The slow cooker I have is amazing and has a ton of cooking options!
- When done, shred the chicken and return to the slow cooker. Then mix well and enjoy!!!!
Furthermore, I hope you love this slow cooker chicken and dumplings recipe as much as my family and I did! It is one of the best comfort foods ever!

This looks like the ultimate fall comfort food! I think I will be putting it on the menu this week. And one of my favorite fall things is to throw things in the crockpot and then enjoy the smell until dinner time!
