How To Make grandma w's crockpot chicken n dumplings

  • Step 1
    Cook the chickens in the crockpot with 2 cups of water. Take chicken off the bone, set aside, and bring water back up to a boil. Add the carrots, celery and onion. Season to taste with sage and parsley flakes. Turn down to low.
  • Step 2
    Put in 1 can of biscuits that you quartered, then add the chicken on top. Top with the remaining 2 cans of quartered biscuits and cook an additional 20 minutes. (Do NOT open during the 20 minutes so the biscuits cook)
  • Step 3
    I made this on the stove tonight, and it was fantastic! I used 2 whole chickens, 1 can of chicken broth, 2 boxes of vegetable broth, just short of 2 lbs baby carrots, 5 stalks celery, and 4 tubes of 10 pack biscuits. Absolutely amazing! My next step is to try in camp over an open fire!
