Ingredients
Marinade (or replace with a packet mix)
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ½ a lemon
- 2 tsp dried basil
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- ½ tsp dried crushed red pepper
- 1 tsp dried rosemary
- 1 Tbsp garlic pepper
Chicken n Dumplins
- 2 cans cream of chicken soup
- 2 cans water
- ½ tsp garlic salt
- ¼ tsp pepper
- 2 lb marinated chicken
- 1 Tbsp garlic powder
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- ½ cup shredded parmesan cheese
- 1 tube biscuits (use your preferred type, flaky layers, homestyle, etc.)
Instructions
Marinade
- Combine all ingredients with 2 lb chicken in a plastic bag. Smoosh around and let sit for at least an hour (or overnight).
Chicken 'n Dumplings
- Add 2 cans of cream of chicken to the slow cooker. Fill each can with water and add that to the pot.
- Add ½ tsp garlic salt and ½ tsp pepper and stir until combined. Add in the chicken and cook on high 5-6 hours, low 8-9 hours.
- 1½ hours before serving, remove the chicken from the pot and cut or tear the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. Once shredded, return to the cooker.
- In a medium bowl, combine parmesan cheese and 1 Tbsp garlic powder. Cut each biscuit into 6-9 pieces (depending on your preferred size of dumplin) and toss in the cheese mixture. Add to slow cooker on top. You can mix slightly, but I usually just toss them on top.
- Cook high for 1 hour, then sprinkle on cheddar cheese and let melt.
