Instructions
Place Chicken in the slow cooker. Season with salt and pepper.
Add Vegetables and Garlic to the slow cooker.
In a saucepan, melt Butter over medium heat. Whisk in Flour and cook for 1 minute to create a roux.
Gradually whisk in Chicken broth until smooth. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Stir in Heavy cream, Thyme, Rosemary, and Nutmeg. Pour sauce over the chicken and vegetables in the slow cooker.
Cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, or until chicken is tender.
About 30 minutes before serving, prepare the Dumplings: In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
Cut in cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Add Buttermilk and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
Drop spoonfuls of dumpling dough onto the simmering chicken mixture in the slow cooker.
Cover and cook for 20-30 minutes, or until dumplings are cooked through.
Serve hot.
