Wikipedia: Chicken and dumplings
Chicken and dumplings is a soup that consists of a chicken cooked in water, with the resulting chicken broth being used to cook the dumplings by boiling. A dumpling—in this context—is a biscuit dough, which is a mixture of flour, shortening, and liquid (water, milk, buttermilk, or chicken stock). The dumplings are either rolled out flat, dropped, or formed into a ball.
 
Wikipedia: Pot pie 
A pot pie, in US and Canadian dialects, is a type of meat pie with a top pie crust that is commonly used throughout the continent, consisting of flaky pastry. Pot pies may be made with a variety of fillings including poultry, beef, seafood, or plant-based meat substitute fillings, and may also differ in the types of crust. In both countries (US and Canada), various versions exist and can vary significantly in terms of both preparation and ingredients, with chicken pot pie being the most popular variety of the dish.

The biggest betrayal of all was the first time I ordered chickens and dumplings (actually it was rabbit and dumplings) at an American restaurant. Don’t know what I was expecting, but it wasn’t a deconstructed pot pie. https://twitter.com/AskAKorean/status/1032378344719831040

My first slow cooker experiment was chicken and dumplings, which basically turned out to be deconstructed chicken pot pie. Regardless, it was very tasty #food #crockpot #slowcooker #chickenanddumplings

When you’re cooking chicken and dumplings, you’re really making a deconstructed chicken pot pie.

The one on the right, but I always did pinch and drop dough in mine. My husband always made flat dumplings cut in strips and dropped in fast. Both yummy as it can be. No peas or carrots. That’s chicken pot pie, deconstructed.

Chicken and dumplings shouldn’t have vegetables. What you have there is a deconstructed pot pie. 😂
