Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 cup chopped yellow onion
  • 2 carrots, peeled and chopped
  • 2 celery stalks, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 6 cups chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until browned on all sides. Remove chicken and set aside.
  2. Add onion, carrots, and celery to the pot. Cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Stir in garlic and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
  4. Return chicken to the pot. Pour in chicken broth and add thyme, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
  5. While the soup simmers, prepare the dumplings. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
  6. Stir in milk until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Drop spoonfuls of dumpling batter onto the simmering soup.
  8. Cover the pot and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until dumplings are cooked through and fluffy.
  9. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, you can use chicken legs instead of thighs.
  • If you don’t have fresh thyme, use 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme.
  • Adjust seasoning to your preference.
