I’ve always been intimidated by the thought of making chicken and dumplings. It seemed like a lot of work, so when I came across this recipe, I knew I had to give it a try. It was simple and really quick to make. It was fabulous! Chicken Legs especially loved it. I used a rotisserie chicken and this came together in no time. We will be making a turkey version this weekend!
