Chicken and dumplings

[HORNS]

T, what do you use for the dumplings?

My family, and thus I, use pie crust which has been rolled out very, very thinly and then sliced into 1.5 x 3 inch strips and then thrown into the chicken/stock mix. This thinness results in more delicate dumplings because they do indeed plump up while in there. I never was a fan of the biscuit dough on top of the dish - casserole style because of the dense balls of dough.

My mom uses pie crust also.

It is more likely that there is something wrong with you than something that is wrong with the food. Or it might've been just too much food for you, maybe wrong timing. What were all of the ingredients you used to make the dish?
