Description
Make this classic comfort food with minimal effort using your slow cooker. Tender chicken and vegetables simmer in a savory gravy, topped with freshly baked biscuits.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/3 cup butter
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 large onion peeled and chopped
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 5 teaspoons chicken base or 5 bouillon cubes
- 2 teaspoons poultry seasoning
- 2 large boneless chicken breasts diced
- 3 1/2 cups frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn and green beans)
- 2 tablespoons chopped parsley
- 1 can large biscuits (about 5 biscuits needed)
Instructions
- Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Whisk in the flour until smooth to create a roux. Cook the roux for 2-3 minutes until golden.
- Stir in the onions and cook for 2-3 minutes until soft. Whisk in the water, chicken base, and poultry seasoning. Simmer for 3 minutes to form a gravy.
- Pour the gravy into a large 6+ quart slow cooker. Add the diced chicken, mixed vegetables, and parsley. Stir everything together well.
- Cover the slow cooker and cook on HIGH for 3-4 hours or on LOW for 6-7 hours.
- Preheat your oven to 425 degrees or the temperature listed on the biscuit can. Snip 5 biscuits into 8 pieces each using kitchen shears. Spread the pieces on a baking sheet.
- Bake the biscuit pieces for 11-12 minutes, or until they are golden brown and puffy.
- Stir the chicken pot filling. Sprinkle the baked biscuit topping over the filling and serve warm.
Notes
- This recipe uses store-bought biscuits for ease, but you can substitute with your favorite homemade biscuit dough.
- If you prefer a thicker gravy before adding it to the slow cooker, simmer the roux mixture for an extra minute or two.
