INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast, cooked
1/2 cup Carrot, chopped
1/2 cup Celery, chopped
1/4 cup Onion, chopped
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 cup Low-Sodium Chicken Broth
1/4 cup Skim Milk
1 tbsp Whole Wheat Flour (for sauce)
1/3 cup Whole Wheat Flour (for dumplings)
1 large Egg White
2 tbsp Fresh Herbs (Parsley/Thyme)
PREPARATION
Shred or dice the cooked chicken breast into bite-sized pieces.
In a medium pot, sauté the chopped onions, carrots, celery, and minced garlic over medium heat until the vegetables begin to soften, about 3-4 minutes.
Pour in the low-sodium chicken broth and bring to a gentle simmer.
Stir in the skim milk and 1 tablespoon of whole wheat flour to create a light cream sauce. Allow the mixture to simmer for 2 minutes to thicken slightly.
Gently add the shredded chicken and fresh herbs to the pot, stirring to combine.
In a separate bowl, mix together 1/3 cup whole wheat flour with the egg white until a sticky dough forms. Spoon small dumpling-sized portions (about 1 tablespoon each) into the simmering broth.
Cover the pot and let the dumplings cook in the simmering liquid for about 10-12 minutes until they are cooked through and tender.
Taste and adjust seasonings if needed, then serve your wholesome, creamy chicken and dumplings warm.
