Dice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with a pinch of the sea salt and black pepper.
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat and sauté the diced onion, carrots, and celery until they become slightly softened.
Add the chicken to the pot and cook until it is lightly browned on all sides.
Pour in the chicken bone broth and add the fresh thyme, bringing the mixture to a gentle simmer.
In a small bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, and water to form a thick, cohesive dumpling dough.
Stir the coconut milk into the pot to create a creamy, rich base for the stew.
Drop small spoonfuls of the dough into the simmering broth, then cover the pot to steam the dumplings for 8 to 10 minutes.
Season the dish with the remaining sea salt and black pepper before serving while hot.
