Ingredients
- 2 Tablespoons unsalted butter
- ½ cup diced carrots
- ½ cup diced celery
- ½ cup diced yellow onion
- 8 cups low-sodium chicken broth
- 3 cups cooked chicken shredded or cubed (rotisserie chicken works well here)
Dumplings:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 2 Tablespoons cold unsalted butter cubed
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup whole milk
Instructions
- In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the carrots, celery, and onion. Saute until vegetables are soft, about 5-7 minutes. Add the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Stir in the chicken.
- While the chicken broth is simmering, make the dumplings. For the dumplings: In a medium bowl, add the flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the cold butter with two forks, a pastry cutter, or your hands. Add the milk and mix until combined.
- On a floured surface, roll out the dough to ¼ inch thick. Cut dough into squares and toss with additional flour so that they don’t stick together.
- Stir the dumplings into the chicken broth a few at a time until all of them are added. Simmer for about 15 minutes or until dumplings have cooked. Add more salt and pepper to taste. You could also add some poultry seasoning for more flavor. Serve.
