Ingredients

Soup Base

1 medium yellow onion, diced
4 large carrots, diced
2 stalks celery, diced
2 Tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup plain yogurt mix with 1/4 cup warm water first
3 1/2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or cubed
4 cups chicken broth
2 bay leaves
2 teaspoons dried thyme
fresh parsley, chopped for topping optional

Gluten-Free Dumplings

2 1/4 cups gluten-free flour
2 large eggs
3/4 cup chicken broth
1 Tablespoon baking powder
1 Tablespoon parsley
1 Tablespoon minced chives
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Instructions

Saute the onion, carrots, and celery with the olive oil for about 5-7 minutes.
Whisk the yogurt with ¼ cup of warm water to thin slightly.
Add in the cooked chicken, chicken broth, bay leaves, thyme, and yogurt mixture. Bring to a low boil.
Meanwhile, whisk together the eggs in a mixing bowl.
Whisk in all of the remaining ingredients for the dumplings until a smooth dough forms. It will be very sticky.
Lightly grease a small or medium cookie scoop and drop the dumplings right into the soup. You can make them big or small.
If you notice the dough sticking to the scoop, just spray again with oil.
Simmer, uncovered for 10-12 minutes, then cover and simmer for another 5 minutes.
Serve with fresh chopped parsley (optional) and enjoy!
