Perfect for a weeknight meal if you can just spare 10 minutes in the morning to get everything in the slow cooker.
Winner winner chicken dinner! This chicken recipe is always a winner in my house. I love it because it is super-easy and because most of the work is done by the crock pot during the day while I am working.
Then, when we are ready to eat dinner in the evening, I just transfer the chicken and veggies to a 9x13 baking dish, pop some packaged refrigerated biscuit dough on top, and bake for about 15 minutes.
The entire family LOVES this recipe! Even Thing 2, who typically turns his nose up at vegetables, happily gobbles up every morsel of this dish.
(If it makes your morning easier, cut up your potatoes the night before and store in the refrigerator covered with water.)
Here’s a totally optional hint if you like the nice golden color and sheen on the biscuits: Take a minute to whisk an egg white together with a tablespoon of water and brush it over the top before placing the baking dish in the oven for the final 15 minutes of cooking. Don’t those biscuits look beautiful?
Most nights I really can’t be bothered with a cosmetic step like that, but every once in a while I like to get fancy. Either way, this dinner is always a big hit with the adults and with the kids! 🙂

I don't understand. Why cut the biscuits in half ? Is there not 8 biscuits in a pack ?
Kristin King
Hi Jean, I actually needed more than 8 to completely fill the 9x13 dish. Plus, the whole biscuit is rather tall when it bakes, so the half biscuit seemed like a better scale as a crust for the chicken. Hope that helps, thanks for stopping by! 🙂
