Why You’ll Love Slow Cooker Chicken and Dumplings
Hands-Off Cooking: One of the best things about using a slow cooker is that it does all the work for you. You just toss the ingredients in the pot, set it, and let the magic happen.
Tender Chicken: The slow cooking process ensures that the chicken becomes incredibly tender and flavorful, infusing the broth with savory goodness.
Soft, Fluffy Dumplings: The dumplings cook right on top of the chicken and vegetables, absorbing the flavors of the broth and turning out light, fluffy, and delicious.
Easy to Customize: This recipe is versatile. You can add extra vegetables, swap out the chicken for turkey, or even use cream for a richer, more decadent broth.
