Karen's Extra Easy Chicken and Dumplings

Place chicken in crockpot. Season well with about 1 tsp salt and ½ tsp pepper. Add water to fill crockpot ⅔ full. Cover and cook 8 hours. Remove chicken and cool slightly. Remove skin and bones, cut chicken into bite size pieces. Place chicken broth in large saucepan. Add 1-2 tsp chicken soup base and stir well. If additional liquid is needed, you may add 1 or 2 cans chicken broth. Add chicken and bring to boil. Drop tortilla strips into boiling broth, stirring to separate. Boil 10 minutes stirring occasionally.
