Crockpot Creamy Chicken with Biscuits

8 Jan

Chicken pot pie is one of my favorite comfort foods, so when I saw this recipe – it spoke to me! I have been trying to find more crockpot meals. They are so easy – yet I always forget about them. You make the chicken and veggies in the crockpot and then make the biscuits right before serving. Now, if you are looking for a healthy option, I would go with this chicken pot pie. But, this is a good choice for a really creamy and easy meal.

Ingredients:
3/4 pound carrots (about 4), cut into 1 in. lengths
2 stalks celery, thinly sliced
1 small onion, chopped
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs (I ended up using breasts)
1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning
salt and black pepper
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
6 store bought biscuits (or make your own!)
1 cup frozen peas
1/2 cup heavy cream

Directions:
1. In a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker, toss together the carrots, celery, onion, and flour. Place the chicken on top and season with the poultry seasoning, 1 teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Add the wine and broth.
2. Cover and cook until the chicken and vegetables are tender, on low for 5 to 6 hours or on high for 2 1⁄2 to 3 hours.
3. Thirty minutes before serving, prepare the biscuits.
4. Ten minutes before serving, add the peas, cream, and ½ teaspoon salt to the chicken and stir to combine. Cover and cook until heated through, 5 to 10 minutes more.
5. To serve, place the bottom halves of the biscuits in shallow bowls, then top with the chicken mixture and the remaining biscuit halves.
