Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 tablespoon butter salted
  • 1 small yellow onion diced (about 1 cup
  • 4 medium carrot peeled and chopped
  • 2 medium celery chopped, stalks
  • 8 cups chicken broth or chicken stock, 64 ounces
  • 12 ounces dumplings such as Anne’s brand, frozen, flat
  • 4 cups chicken cooked, shredded, rotisserie
  • kosher salt to taste
  • ground black pepper to taste
  • parsley optional garnish, chopped fresh herbs
  • sage
  • thyme
  • rosemary

Instructions

  1. 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.
  2. Add the broth; bring to a boil. Once the broth boils, reduce the heat so that the liquid is simmering.
  3. 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.
  4. Once the dumplings are tender, stir in the chicken and cook just until warmed through, about 5 more minutes.
  5. Remove from the heat. Taste and season with salt and pepper, if desired.
  6. 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.
