Tips:

  • Be sure to use fresh herbs for the best flavor. Dried herbs can also be used, but they will not be as flavorful.
  • If you don't have a slow cooker, you can make this recipe in a Dutch oven over low heat for 6-8 hours.
  • To make the dumplings, be sure to use cold butter and buttermilk. This will help the dumplings stay light and fluffy.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • Drop the dumplings into the slow cooker gently. Do not stir them or they will become tough.
  • Cover the slow cooker and cook the dumplings on low for 1-2 hours, or until they are cooked through.
  • Serve the creamy chicken and herbed dumplings over rice or noodles.
