Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon salted butter
- 1 small yellow onion, diced (about 1 cup)
- 4 medium carrots, peeled and chopped
- 2 medium celery stalks, chopped
- 8 cups (64 ounces) chicken broth or chicken stock
- 12 ounces frozen flat dumplings (such as Anne’s brand)
- 4 cups cooked, shredded rotisserie chicken
- Kosher salt and ground black pepper, to taste
- Optional garnish: chopped fresh herbs such as parsley, sage, thyme, or rosemary
Instructions
- Melt butter in a large Dutch oven or soup pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion, carrots, and celery; cook until the vegetables are starting to soften, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the broth; bring to a boil. Once the broth boils, reduce the heat so that the liquid is simmering.
- Gradually add the frozen dumplings, a few at a time, carefully separating them as necessary. Cook according to package directions until the dumplings are tender (usually about 8-10 minutes, but this will vary depending on your brand/size dumplings). Stir occasionally so that the dumplings don’t stick together.
- Once the dumplings are tender, stir in the chicken and cook just until warmed through, about 5 more minutes.
- Remove from the heat. Taste and season with salt and pepper, if desired.
- Ladle into bowls and garnish with chopped fresh herbs.

Notes
- If you prefer to cook your own chicken at home for this recipe, you'll need to start with about 2 lbs. of raw boneless, skinless chicken thighs or boneless skinless chicken breasts. Boil the chicken in the broth until cooked through, about 15 minutes. Then remove the meat to a cutting board to chop or shred with two forks.
