This Easy Crockpot Chicken and Dumplings is a classic Midwest comfort meal made with tender shredded chicken, fluffy biscuit dumplings, and a creamy, savory broth. A simple dump-and-go slow cooker recipe that’s perfect for busy weeknights.

Ingredients

  • 2 (10.5 oz) cans condensed cream of chicken soup
    (or 1 can cream of chicken + 1 can cream of celery)
  • 1 TBSP chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 tsp poultry seasoning
  • 1 TBSP onion powder
  • 2 TBSP butter
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • 3–4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups frozen peas and carrots, thawed (or mixed vegetables)
  • 1 (16.3 oz) can refrigerated biscuits
  • Optional for Serving:
  • Plain Greek yogurt or sour cream
  • Chopped fresh chives

Instructions

  1. In the bowl of your slow cooker, combine the cream of chicken soups, parsley, poultry seasoning, onion powder, black pepper, butter, and chicken broth. Stir until smooth.
  2. Add the chicken breasts and gently press them down so they are mostly submerged in the sauce.
  3. Cover and cook on HIGH for 5 hours.
  4. After approximately 4 hours of cooking time (about 60–90 minutes before serving), remove the chicken from the slow cooker and shred. (Pro Tip: Shred with a stand mixer and paddle attachment for a quick and easy shred!)
  5. While the chicken is shredding, tear the refrigerated biscuit dough into small bite-sized pieces and drop them directly into the slow cooker.
  6. Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker.
  7. Add the thawed vegetables and gently stir to combine.
  8. Cover and cook on HIGH for an additional 1 hour, until the biscuit dumplings are cooked through and tender.
  9. Serve warm. Top with plain Greek yogurt or sour cream and chopped chives, if desired.

Notes

  • If your family is sensitive to vegetable texture, you can finely chop the vegetables before adding.

  • For quicker shredding, a stand mixer with the paddle attachment works well.

  • Cooking times may vary slightly depending on your slow cooker model. Dumplings should be fully set and no longer doughy in the center before serving.
