INGREDIENTS

5 oz chicken breast

0.5 cup carrots

0.5 cup celery

0.25 cup yellow onion

2 cup low-sodium chicken broth

0.25 cup whole wheat flour

0.25 cup non-fat Greek yogurt

0.5 tsp baking powder

1 tsp ghee

1 tsp fresh thyme

1 tsp fresh parsley

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

0.25 tsp garlic powder

PREPARATION

• 1

  Dice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

• 2

  In a medium pot, melt the ghee over medium heat. Add the diced carrots, celery, and onion, sautéing for 5-7 minutes until the onions are translucent.

• 3

  Pour the chicken broth and fresh thyme into the pot. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to a simmer.

• 4

  Add the chicken pieces to the simmering broth and cook for about 8 minutes until the chicken is nearly cooked through.

• 5

  While the chicken simmers, prepare the dumpling dough by whisking together the whole wheat flour and baking powder in a small bowl.

• 6

  Stir the Greek yogurt into the flour mixture until a sticky dough forms. Do not overmix.

• 7

  Drop the dough by the teaspoonful into the simmering broth. Cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid.

• 8

  Steam the dumplings for 10 minutes without lifting the lid to ensure they become light and airy.

• 9

  Remove from heat, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve warm in a shallow bowl.
