5 Killer Slow Cooker Meals

Slow Cooker Creamy Chicken with Biscuits

Is there anything better than some down-home cooking? It is even better when it takes just a few minutes of prep. I threw this delectable dish together just the other day when both my Husband and I had a horrible flu. Sit back and focus on feeling better while the crock pot does the work!

Ingredients:

1½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs (about 8)
½ teaspoon poultry seasoning
kosher salt and black pepper
½ cup dry white wine
½ cup low-sodium chicken broth
6 (store-bought or Easy Drop Biscuits; see recipe), split
1 cup frozen peas
½ cup heavy cream
¾ pound carrots (about 4), cut into 1-inch lengths
2 stalks celery, thinly sliced
1 small onion, chopped
¼ cup all-purpose flour

Directions:

Step 1

In a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker, toss together the carrots, celery, onion, and flour. Place the chicken on top and season with the poultry seasoning, 1 teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Add the wine and broth.

Step 2

Cover and cook until the chicken and vegetables are tender, on low for 5 to 6 hours or on high for 2 1⁄2 to 3 hours (this will shorten total cooking time).

Step 3

Thirty minutes before serving, prepare the Easy Drop Biscuits (if using).

Step 4

Ten minutes before serving, add the peas, cream, and ½ teaspoon salt to the chicken and stir to combine. Cover and cook until heated through, 5 to 10 minutes more.

Step 5

To serve, place the bottom halves of the biscuits in shallow bowls, then top with the chicken mixture and the remaining biscuit halves.
