Mom's Chicken Dumpling Soup
Description
This homestyle chicken dumpling soup starts by sautéing diced onion and carrots in neutral oil to develop flavor. Water and chicken bouillon build a flavorful base broth seasoned with salt and ground black pepper. Bite-size pieces of boneless, skinless chicken thighs are added and simmered until cooked through, imparting richness to the broth.
Homemade dumplings are gently added and cooked until they float, indicating doneness, while peeled, chopped potatoes are simmered until tender. Finally, fresh green onions are stirred in to contribute a mild onion bite and brightness. The soup is served warm, delivering a filling, comforting dish with tender chicken, soft dumplings, and vegetables in a savory broth.
This soup can be enjoyed on colder days or as nourishing comfort food. The method allows for homemade dumplings to be cooked directly in the broth to absorb the soup’s flavors.
