Actually taken from other recipes found and my own added twist I came up with the now favorite go to meal!Use what chicken you have on hand straight out of the freezer. My husband even said I can make it again and he does not like dumplings.

How To Make slow cooker chicken and dumplings

Step 1

Place chicken, soup, onion, and carrots in crock pot. Add chicken stock to cover meat set on high for 6 hours.

Step 2

The last 2 hours remove and bones, if using bone in chicken, and quarter the biscuit dough. Place on top and gently push into cooking liquid. Replace cover and let cook. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Step 3

Notes: I used a "flaky layers" buttermilk biscuit and they made beautiful dumplings. I also used a chicken soup base dissolved in 4 cups of water instead of chicken stock.
