And I copied this off PBS when they were having a fundraising/recipe drive. This was demonstrated/cooked by a Fireman. (Fireperson?)
Fast. Easy. Good.

Firehouse Chicken ‘n’ Dumplings

Time-saver tip: Use refrigerated canned biscuits for the "dumplings"

6 c. water
1 small can (~10.25 oz) of cream of chicken soup
1 small can (~10.25 oz) of cream of mushroom soup
Stir together, over low heat until well combined
Add:
10-14 oz chicken broth
1 t. garlic powder
1 medium to large onion, diced
½ t. Freshly ground black pepper
Heat and stir well
2-3# of cut-up chicken; your choice (bone-in or bone out, any cut)
Drop the chicken in, bring to a boil and stir for about 20 min.
2 cans refrigerated biscuits
Drop in the biscuits and cook for another 20 min or so. (Fireman says he did not cover. Try either way. This makes a rather “soupy” Chicken & Dumplings).
Serves about 12. We have frozen this, but not the dumplings. Perhaps they would freeze okay but we've never tried that.
