Actually taken from other recipes found and my own added twist I came up with the now favorite go to meal!Use what chicken you have on hand straight out of the freezer. My husband even said I can make it again and he does not like dumplings.

    Notes: I used a "flaky layers" buttermilk biscuit and they made beautiful dumplings. I also used a chicken soup base dissolved in 4 cups of water instead of chicken stock.
