Melt the butter in a small pot over medium heat. Add the onion, carrot, and celery. Cook for 5 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.
Stir in the chicken broth, thyme, salt, pepper, and chicken breast pieces. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes.
While the chicken simmers, whisk the flour, baking powder, and half the parsley in a small bowl. Stir in the milk until a thick, sticky dough forms.
Drop the dumpling dough by small spoonfuls onto the simmering liquid, making about 4 to 5 small dumplings. Cover the pot tightly and simmer for 15 minutes without lifting the lid. Done when puffy and set, 165°F.
Check that the chicken is cooked through and the dumplings are fluffy. Garnish with the remaining parsley and serve in a wide bowl. Done when opaque in the center, 165°F.
