Slow Cooker Chicken and Biscuits Recipe
5 or 6 quart slow cooker Servings: 8 Prep Time: 20 minutes Cook Time: 6 or more hours
2 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breast 2 cans cream of chicken soup (10.75 oz.) 2 tablespoons butter or margarine 1 cup diced carrots 1 cup frozen peas 1 small onion, minced or 2 tsp. onion powder 3/4 cup chicken broth or water 2 packages refrigerated biscuit dough (10 oz. ea.)
Place the chicken breast on the bottom of a 5 or 6 quart slow cooker. Top with soup, butter, vegetables, and onion. Pour the chicken broth over the soup mixture. The chicken should be covered, if not, add more broth to cover. Place the cover on the slow cooker and turn on high. Cook on high for 5 to 6 hours. Approximately 1 hour before serving, remove the cover and pull the chicken apart in small pieces or shred. Tear the refrigerator biscuit dough into pieces and place on top of the chicken mixture in the slow cooker. Replace the cover and cook another hour or until biscuits are done all the way through. To serve, spoon the chicken and biscuits on to plates directly from the slow cooker. |
