Slow-Cooked Chicken & Dumplings

This recipe was easy to make and the family loved it

The Dumplings came out perfect they where always tricky for me(center) the chicken fell off the bone and juicy with every bite.

I didn't have any onions so I used onion soup mix, and made regular dumplings... the family loved it! Even my son who isn't too fond of chicken. I will make this again - but will try the stuffing dumplings next time!

I can't believe that this got such bad reviews. This was so delicious that I just bought everything to make it again. I did the slow cooker all day with the chicken (I used boneless, skinless, breast) & vegetables and when it was time to do the dumplings, I transferred this to a pot on the stovetop. Seems daunting, but I didn't feel my crock pot was hot enough to cook the dumplings and melt the cream cheese into the broth. I also did not use the stove top dumplings, instead, I used biscuit mix dumplings. The stew was rich and creamy and so delicious. My husband & I fought over the leftovers.

I made this recipe and it turned out like soup and bad soup at that. I will never make it again!

I put it on high in my crockpot for nealy 4 hours. The carrots weren't cooked. And when I went to turn the Stove Top Dumplings they fell apart and soaked up most of the broth.

This recipe looks and sounds unappetizing. It need some serious changes in the ingredients. Too much fat calories.

I would not try this recipe on my family. They probably would not eat it. They are use to old fashioned chicken breast meat, chicken broth and biscuit type dumplings. Although probably not best in a slow cooker it doesn't take long to fix if chicken is prepared ahead of time.

I have not made this recipe, but in response to the other comment, the calories/fat content are high for 2 main reasons: the recipe calls for chicken thighs; it uses full fat cream cheese. Change to boneless/skinless chicken breasts and reduced fat cream cheese. Plain reduced fat version,w/added garlic, italian seasoning, scallions...would work if you can't find seasoned. Also use only egg whites in the stuffing mix. (I'm a nutritionist- good luck!)

very good indeed, every one loved it
