Ingredients

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup sliced carrots
  • 1 cup chopped celery
  • 1 cup diced onions
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, heat some oil over medium heat. Add the diced onions, carrots, and celery. Sauté until the vegetables start to soften, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add the minced garlic, dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and pepper. Sauté for another 2 minutes until fragrant.
  3. Add the chicken breasts and brown them on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  4. Pour in the chicken broth and bring it to a simmer. Cover and let it cook for 20 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.
  5. While the chicken is simmering, prepare the dumplings. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, milk, and a pinch of salt. Mix until a sticky dough forms.
  6. Drop spoonfuls of the dumpling dough into the simmering broth. Cover and let them cook for about 15 minutes, or until the dumplings are cooked through and fluffy.
  7. Shred the cooked chicken in the pot using two forks. Stir everything together, and your chicken and dumplings are ready to serve!
