I was so excited for this because of the reviews, but what a disappointment. My husband commented that all is tasted like was biscuit and chicken - nothing else. I even added more spices and the cream of chicken soup overpowered the dish. I love chicken and dumplings, but I will be looking for a new recipe.

Excellent!!! I changed one of the cans of soup to cream of mushroom. I also added fresh carrots, celery & mushrooms. Instead of water I substituted chixhen broth. This was really easy & the house smelled yummy when we got home.

I made this for myself and my husband, and it turned out fabulous. We didn't have an onion on hand, so I just sprinkled some garlic powder instead. There was also enough here to have leftovers the next day. This recipe was incredibly easy.

First time I have reviewed a recipe. This was wonderful and my hubby and kids ate it up like crazy. My only issue is that I will add the biscuits 2 hours before serving because they were slightly undercooked. Overall one of my fave recipes from this site!

The first time I made this, I gave it 3 stars because I wasn't real satisfied with it. However, I didn't want to give up on it, so I decided to give it a second go last night with several a few changes based on user suggestions. The results were soooo yummy! I used chicken broth instead of water, and rolled out my little store-brand biscuits to less than 1/4" thick before slicing them into one-inch squares. Also, because I have to leave out onions and other veggies since my hubby is a picky eater, I added one or two tsp of onion powder as well as some salt-free Cavenders (I thought it was salty enough with the cream of chicken soup) to add more flavor. I used leftover Thanksgiving turkey instead of chicken, but it'll be good with chicken too. Because the dumplings were rolled out thin, they only needed to cook for about 30 minutes on the crockpot's high setting. Absolutely delicious results! Will definitely make again. :)

My husband and I both loved this recipe. Like others suggested, I used 1 can cream of mushroom and 1 can cream of chicken. Sauteed onions and garlic, and browned seasoned chicken before adding to slow cooker. Added additional seasonings, and added mixed vegetables when I put the bisquits in (used only one can of bisquits). Unlike one reviewer, we felt it was even better reheated the next day. For those who hate people who review a recipe that has been altered, I have to say I like it both ways, the puriest who does it exactly compared with the ones who alter the recipe give me ideas to be creative myself. Which is what cooking is all about.

It was really delicious, I did change a few things as did many others. I substituted cream of broccoli soup *I only eat organic and natural and humanely raised chicken and they don't have any cream of chicken soup like that* and added Italian herb seasoning mix, and dill, and cumin, and fresh garlic. I also only used one can of biscuts. Supper supper yummy!!!

I love this recipe! It is super easy and quick to make. The house smells wonderful when I come home after it's been in the slow cooker all day. I added quite a bit of sage, which added a flavor I like. My very picky husband even commented on how moist it was. The last time I made it, I didn't bother with the dumplings. I thickened the gravy and served it with potatoes. Yummy.

Absolutely delicious! And simple to make! I had boneless, skinless chicken thighs, so I used those in place of the breasts. I put the thighs in the crockpot frozen and they were cooked all the way through in no time. I used one can of grand size store brand biscuits and let them cook for about 2 hours. This is a keeper!!!!

My family and I really loved this recipe. I fixed it today and all of it was ate. The only thing I did differently was instead of water I used a 14 oz can of chicken broth.. because water only weakens it. Wonderful recipe and I can't wait to make it for the holidays!!!! Give it a try you won't be sorry.

This was a great base for chicken and dumplings but you definitly have to add more...I added frozen veggies (corn and peas) and 2 diced red potatoes. I used broth instead of water. I took someone else's suggestions and added poultry seasoning, parsley, cumin, seasoned salt and pepper. I also cooked the biscuits for an hour.

definitely use chicken broth instead of water, and one package of biscuits is sufficient. poultry seasoning and other seasoning is needed too.

This was excellent!! Taste was great and super easy to make! I did however only use 1 1/2 pkges of biscuits and I put them in with about 2 hours left of cooking and after 30 mins of them in I turned the slow cooker back to low. For a total of 5.5 hours of cooking. Thanks for this great recipe!

It was really good and easy to make BUT it came out really dry, there wasn't enough sauce once the biscuits were in. I used 1 can of chicken broth in place of the water and I think I will try it again with only 1 can of biscuits. Other than that it was a delicious and very easy to make.

My family can't get enough of this easy chicken and dumplings recipe. As others advised I do roll out the biscuit dough cutting it with a pizza cutter (great to keep the kids busy) and add an hour before the end to get a less doughy texture to them.

A great, easy recipe for chicken and dumplings! My husband loves his mom's chicken and dumplings and even he said that this recipe was better than his mom's.
