How to Make Aunt Bettye's Crock Pot Chicken And Dumplings

  1. Brown 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Set aside.
  2. In the slow cooker, combine 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 large onion (chopped), 2 carrots (chopped), 2 celery stalks (chopped), and 3 cloves garlic (minced). Cook on low for 30 minutes.
  3. Add 4 cups chicken broth, 1 cup milk, 1 tsp dried thyme, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper to the slow cooker. Stir in the browned chicken.
  4. Cook on low for 6-8 hours, or on high for 3-4 hours, or until chicken is cooked through.
  5. One hour before serving, prepare your dumplings: In a bowl, combine 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 tsp baking powder, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/2 cup cold butter (cut into small pieces). Cut in the butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  7. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto the chicken and gravy mixture in the slow cooker.
