Crock pot Chicken and dumplings

This is a delicious and super easy recipe.  It's great for busy days.  Throw everything in the crock pot in the morning.  Come home add 3 more ingredients and then 45 minutes later you have a hearty dinner for the family.  Let's get cooking!  You will need:

1 can cream of celery soup
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1/2 cup wine
1 can of water
spritz of garlic powder, salt and pepper

3 carrots, peeled and cut in 1" pieces (or half a bag of baby carrots cut in half)
2 stalks of celery cut in 1" pieces
2 medium red skinned potatoes, peeled and cut in 1" pieces
3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut in 1" pieces
1 cup peas
1 cup mushrooms (optional if you are a hater)
1 can of buttermilk flaky biscuits
chives

 

1.)  In the crock pot, add the soups, wine, water, garlic powder, salt and pepper.  Stir to combine. 

2.)  Add the carrots, celery, potatoes and chicken chunks.  Stir again.  Put the lid on the crock pot and cook for 4 hours on high or 6 hours on low.

3.)   About 45 minutes prior to serving, add the mushrooms and the peas.  Stir to combine. 
4.)  Change the crock pot to the high setting.  Open the biscuits and put on top of the stew.  Sprinkle with the chives.  Cover.  In about 35 -45 minutes they will puff up and become dumplings!

Easy right?  One of my husbands favorites!
