Notes:

Switch the slow cooker to warm after cooking the dumplings for 1 ½ hours. This will help the slow cooker to get back to temperature.

Use 3 cups of sliced rotisserie chicken if you prefer.

You can use small cuts of crescent dough instead of canned biscuits. You can also use small cuts of flour tortillas cooked over high heat for about 20 minutes.

Make sure to place any leftover in the plastic Tupperware or Ziploc bags and place inside the freezer. This can last up to 3 months.

Place the frozen chicken and dumplings in the fridge to thaw for 24 hours when serving.
