Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Base

    In a large pot, heat the chicken broth over medium heat. Add the diced carrots, celery, and onion. Season with salt and black pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add the Chicken

    Stir in the shredded smoked chicken into the pot and let it cook for an additional 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Make the Dumplings

    In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, melted butter, milk, and a pinch of salt. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.

  4. 4

    Cook the Dumplings

    Drop spoonfuls of the dumpling batter into the simmering broth. Cover the pot and let the dumplings steam for about 15 minutes, or until they are cooked through.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Once the dumplings are cooked, remove the pot from heat. Stir in the chopped parsley and serve hot.
