This recipe for creamy slow cooker chicken with biscuits is the easy and delicious comfort food supper you want to come home to!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3/4 pound carrots (about 4), peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 stalks celery, thinly sliced
  • 1 sweet onion, peeled and chopped
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
  • 1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning
  • Sea salt and black pepper
  • 1/2 cup white wine
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 6 biscuits, baked and split
  • 1 cup frozen peas, thawed
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Put the 4 peeled and sliced carrots, 2 chopped stalks of celery, 1 peeled and chopped sweet onion, and a quarter cup flour in a slow cooker and give it all a good stir.
  2. Place a pound and a half of boneless skinless chicken on top and season with a pinch of poultry seasoning, 1 teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Add a half cup each of wine and chicken broth.
  3. Cover and cook until the chicken and vegetables are tender, on low for 8 hours.
  4. Thirty minutes before serving, bake up 6 biscuits – either the kind from the tube or from scratch. No judging. :)
  5. Ten minutes before serving, remove the chicken and shred into bite sized pieces. Return the chicken to the slow cooker and add the peas, cream, and stir to combine. Taste and add more salt and pepper if you think it needs it.
  6. Cover and cook until heated through, 5 to 10 minutes more.
  7. To serve, place the bottom halves of the biscuits in shallow bowls, then top with the chicken mixture and the remaining biscuit halves.

Notes

    • Chicken: We like chicken breasts for this recipe, but you can swap in chicken thighs as well, as long as they are boneless.

    • Poultry seasoning: This is a mixture of different spices, usually sage, marjoram, nutmeg, thyme, rosemary and onion powder, and it is perfect for giving plain chicken some lovely flavor. You can find it with the other spices, usually in the baking aisle.

    • Biscuits: Either homemade biscuits or biscuits from the can (you know you love them) will work just fine!

    • Cream: We love heavy cream for this recipe, but you can swap in half and half or light cream for a lighter sauce if you prefer.
