Oh, I can’t wait to try this! I’ve never made chicken & dumplings & my hubbie loves it, so I can’t wait to surprise him with this recipe! Thanks so much!!!
- September 17, 2009 at 4:02 pm #425042rtebaltCouple of questions:
1.) Did you use cooked, cubed chicken?
2.) Did you just lay the biscuits on top of the mixture, or did you actually mix it into the mixture? - September 17, 2009 at 5:36 pm #425043darktragedy
I have some chicken thigh filets that I were marked down at Walmart, like 2 lbs maybe, it wasn’t a real large package.
I boiled them with some Greek seasoning salt, then just ‘tore them up’ with my fork and put it in.
I just laid the biscuits on top, and stirred the juices over them every once in awhile.*Don’t over cook this-only needs to go for about 4 hours or so-I cooked mine longer because I decided to add more biscuits after it had been cooking for about 3 hours-it was still good-but it was better at the 4 hour mark!

hurray! I’m so glad that your dh went nutso darktragedy! lol!
seriously, i’m glad that your family liked it;-) i love success stories!and rtebalt…where’ve you been? i posted this back in june! lol!
it’s two cups cooked chicken — cubed, diced, shredded, whatever — and you gently stir the quarted biscuits into the mixture.the cooking time is just an approximate as some of the older crockpots can get too hot (or not hot enough). so you should always check the meal at the shortest time.

Can hardly wait to try for Sunday dinner.

Good choice for a Sunday dinner. My mother would make this occasionally for Sunday dinner. It is my favorite meal — while pregnant with me, it was just about the only thing that she wanted to eat
She always made it for my birthday!Originally, she made the dumplings from scratch and then the refrigerated biscuit came on the scene (I’m dating myself) and she switched to those. Over the years she switched to using short cuts with the canned soups. I just adapted her recipe for the crockpot and whenever I make it…it brings back fond memories…

Woo Hoo! Ya’ll are just making my day that this recipe has been successful for you! Most of you know that I love to cook and develop new (or adapt old) recipes that I can share — I don’t share anything that doesn’t turn out well
Maybe one day I’ll share what not to do — maybe liss can start a new forum…failures! lol! i do have them, but fortunately if they turn out too bad, the dog will still eat them - March 2, 2014 at 4:38 am #451834Tbrunke
