For richer flavor, consider browning the chicken breasts in a skillet before adding them to the slow cooker.
Feel free to add other vegetables like carrots, celery, or peas to the slow cooker for added nutrition and flavor.
If the broth becomes too thick, add a little more chicken broth to reach your desired consistency.
Fresh herbs like thyme or parsley can be added during the last 30 minutes of cooking time to brighten the flavor.

    I added some carrots and celery, and it turned out fantastic!

  • Quincy Durganlegros

    The dumplings were a bit doughy in the center, so I cooked them a little longer. Next time, I'll make smaller pieces.
