Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 0.5 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder

Instructions

  1. Place chicken thighs in your slow cooker. Season with salt, pepper, thyme, rosemary, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  2. Pour chicken broth over the chicken.
  3. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is tender and cooked through.
  4. Remove the chicken from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the pot.
  5. Stir in the heavy cream.
  6. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt for the dumplings.
  7. Add the milk and melted butter to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  8. Drop spoonfuls of the dumpling batter onto the simmering chicken mixture.
  9. Cover the slow cooker and cook for another 20-25 minutes, or until the dumplings are cooked through and fluffy.
  10. Serve hot and enjoy your delicious, comforting meal!

Notes

  • For an extra layer of flavor, you can add chopped carrots and celery along with the chicken broth.
  • If you prefer a thicker stew, you can mix 2 tablespoons of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water and stir it into the slow cooker during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
  • Feel free to adjust the herbs and spices to your liking.
