Ingredients:

– 1.5 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts

– 1 small onion, chopped

– 2 cloves garlic, minced

– 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth

– 1 cup chopped carrots

– 1 cup chopped celery

– 2 tsp dried parsley

– Salt and pepper, to taste

– 1 can (10.75oz) condensed cream of chicken soup

– One tube (16oz) refrigerated biscuit dough

Instructions:

1. Prepare your ingredients by chopping the onion, carrots, and celery, mincing the garlic, and cutting the chicken into bite-sized pieces.

2. In your Crock-Pot, combine the chopped onion, garlic, carrots, celery, chicken broth, cream of chicken soup, salt & pepper to taste and mix well.

3. Add the chicken pieces to the Crock-Pot mixture. Stir everything together, making sure each piece of chicken is coated in the liquid.

4. Cook on low heat for 6 to 7 hours or on high heat for 4 hours until the chicken is tender and cooked through.

5. When it’s almost time to serve your meal, prepare your dumplings by tearing or cutting each biscuit from the dough into small pieces, roughly the size of a tablespoon.

6. Gently drop the biscuit dough pieces into the Crock-Pot, nestling them among the chicken and vegetables. It’s essential to ensure that they’re immersed in the broth since this will help them cook evenly.

7. Replace the lid and cook for another hour on high heat, allowing your dumplings to get cooked through.

8. Once your dumplings are thoroughly cooked, use a fork or spoon to break them apart slightly (if desired).

9. Stir everything together gently, then taste your dish and adjust salt and pepper as needed.

10. Serve your delicious homemade Crock-Pot chicken and dumplings hot, garnished with a sprinkle of chopped fresh parsley or a little cracked black pepper.
