Description
An easy Crockpot chicken pot pie with tender chicken, creamy vegetables, and fluffy golden biscuits. The secret to perfect biscuits? Bake them separately while the filling simmers in the slow cooker.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup peeled and diced carrots
- 1 cup diced celery
- 1 small yellow onion, diced
- ⅓ cup all-purpose flour
- ⅓ cup chicken broth
- ¼ teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 dried bay leaf
- 2 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
- 1 cup frozen peas
- ⅓ cup heavy cream
- Kosher salt and ground black pepper
- 1 tube refrigerated biscuit dough
Instructions
- Step: Spray the insert of a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray.
- Step: Add the carrots, celery, onion, flour, chicken broth, thyme, and bay leaf. Stir to combine.
- Step: Place the chicken on top and season with 1 teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper.
- Step: Cover and cook on LOW for 4 to 6 hours or on HIGH for 2 to 3 hours, until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
- Step: Remove the bay leaf. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and dice or shred it with two forks. Return the chicken to the slow cooker.
- Step: Stir in the frozen peas and heavy cream. Cook for an additional 10 minutes until the peas are heated through.
- Step: While the filling finishes, bake the biscuits in the oven according to package directions.
- Step: Ladle the chicken mixture into bowls and top with warm biscuits.
Notes
Chicken thighs remain juicier during longer cook times. If using breasts, check at the 2-hour mark on HIGH. If the filling is too thick, add a splash of chicken broth. If too thin, mix 1 tablespoon flour with 2 tablespoons cold broth and cook for 30 more minutes.
