Ingredients

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 medium onion, chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 cups frozen mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, corn, etc.)

1 1/2 cups chicken broth

1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary

Salt and pepper to taste

1 package refrigerated biscuit dough (such as Pillsbury Grands)

1/4 cup heavy cream or milk (optional, for extra creaminess)

Instructions

  • Prepare the chicken: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sear the chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes per side until golden, then transfer them to the slow cooker.

  • Sauté the aromatics: In the same skillet, sauté chopped onion and minced garlic for 2-3 minutes until softened and fragrant, then add them to the slow cooker.

  • Add vegetables and seasonings: Add frozen mixed vegetables, chicken broth, cream of chicken soup, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper to the slow cooker. Stir everything together.

  • Cook the mixture: Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-7 hours or high for 3-4 hours, until chicken is cooked through and tender.

  • Shred the chicken: Remove chicken from the slow cooker and shred it with two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker and mix it in.

  • Top with biscuit dough: Tear biscuit dough into pieces and scatter it over the chicken mixture in the slow cooker.

  • Cook the biscuits: Cover and cook on high for 1 hour, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.

  • Serve: Stir in heavy cream or milk (if desired) for extra creaminess before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

  • For a vegetarian option, replace the chicken with additional vegetables like potatoes, zucchini, or cauliflower and use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.

  • Make it spicy by adding cayenne pepper or diced green chilies.

  • Alternative toppings: You can substitute biscuits with puff pastry or mashed potatoes.

  • Herb variations: Try using other herbs like parsley, sage, or oregano to enhance the flavor
