• Remove lid, add potatoes and cook until soft, about 5 minutes.
• Add chicken, and slowly whisk in slurry, stirring well as you add.
• Cook another 2-3 minutes, until soup thickens, adjust salt and pepper to taste and serve.

Steps:

• Place chicken in 3 1/2- to 4-quart slow cooker. Top with onion, bay leaf, pepper and gravy. Place celery on gravy.
• Cover and cook on Low heat setting 8 to 10 hours.
• About 30 minutes before serving, make and bake 8 biscuits using Bisquick mix and milk as directed on package.
• Meanwhile, gently stir frozen vegetables into chicken mixture. Increase heat setting to High. Cover and cook 15 minutes. Remove bay leaf.
• For each serving, split biscuit and place in soup bowl or tart pan. Spoon about 3/4 cup chicken mixture on top of biscuit. Note: This recipe was tested in slow cookers with heating elements in the side and bottom of the cooker, not in cookers that stand only on a heated base. For slow cookers with just a heated base, follow the manufacturer’s directions for layering ingredients and choosing a temperature.
