Homemade Chicken and Dumplings is the ultimate comfort food that brings warmth and joy to every meal. This recipe is perfect for family gatherings or cozy nights in.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 cup diced carrots
  • 1/2 cup diced celery
  • 1/2 cup onions, chopped

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, bring the chicken broth to a boil and add the chicken breasts. Cook until chicken is no longer pink, about 15 minutes.
  2. Remove the chicken, shred it with a fork, and set aside.
  3. In the same pot, add the carrots, celery, and onions, cooking until softened.
  4. In a bowl, mix flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir in milk and melted butter to form a dough.
  5. Drop spoonfuls of the dough into the pot, covering the vegetables and broth.
  6. Cook for 10-15 minutes until dumplings are cooked through. Stir in the shredded chicken.
  7. Season with salt and pepper to taste before serving.

Notes

  • For more flavor, add herbs like thyme or parsley.
  • Use leftover roast chicken for a quicker option.
