1
pound
boneless, skinless chicken breast or tenderloins
1
teaspoon
garlic powder
1
teaspoon
onion powder
1
teaspoon
salt
1
teaspoon
pepper
1 32-
ounce
container chicken broth
1 8-
count package jumbo biscuits
Instructions
Place chicken tenderloins into greased slow cooker.
Season chicken with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
Pour chicken broth over the top of the chicken.
Place the lid on the slow cooker and cook on low for four to five hours.
When the chicken is cooked through, remove the biscuits from the package and flatten each one with your hand.
Next, cut the biscuit in half and cut each half into thin slices.
Once biscuits are cut into small pieces, remove the lid from the slow cooker and quickly use a fork to break up the chicken.
Add the biscuit pieces one at a time to the broth, stirring several times so that the dumplings don't stick together.
Replace the lid and cook on high for around one hour or until the dumplings are cooked through.
Notes
For more color and nutritional benefit, you can add a cup of frozen mixed vegetables with the chicken tenderloin before cooking.
