How to Make Crock Pot Chicken And Dumplings

  1. Chop 2 medium carrots and 2 medium potatoes into 1-inch pieces.
  2. In a 3-4 quart crock pot, combine the chopped carrots and potatoes.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together 4 cups of chicken broth, 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper until smooth.
  4. Pour the chicken broth mixture over the vegetables in the crock pot.
  5. Add 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts to the crock pot.
  6. Cover the crock pot and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center.
  7. Add 1 cup of frozen peas to the crock pot and cover.
  8. Cook on high for 20 minutes, or until the peas are heated through.
  9. In a small bowl, gently combine 1 cup of baking mix (such as Bisquick) and 1/2 cup of milk. Mix just until moistened; do not overmix.
  10. Drop the dumpling batter by tablespoons onto the hot chicken mixture in the crock pot.
  11. Cover and cook on high for 20-25 minutes, or until the dumplings are cooked through, fluffy, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
