Easy Chicken and Biscuits
Keep your slow cooker on the counter and in plain view. Soon, you will be using it for nearly every meal. The convenience of letting dinner cook all day while you do other things is a wonderful habit! Enjoy the Slow Cooker!
Use refrigerator biscuits, or let your homemade ones sit in the refrigerator until they are sticky/doughy like store-bought. Otherwise, they will fall apart in cooking. Leftover chicken makes this dish so economical!
This dish is NOT chicken and dumplings; this gravy is richer and there are fewer ingredients, concentrating on the flavor of mushrooms and chicken.
