  • Carrots: 3 medium-sized diced (roughly 150g)
  • Celery: 3 stalks chopped (around 150g)
  • Onion: 1 large diced (close to 150g)
  • Egg noodles: 2 cups approximately 200g
  • All-purpose flour: 1 cup for dumplings about 125g
  • Baking powder: 1 teaspoon 5g
  • Milk: ½ cup 120ml

Instructions

  • Start by boiling the chicken breasts in a pot filled with water until fully cooked, roughly 15 minutes. Once done, shred the chicken and set aside.
  • In a large pot, melt butter over medium heat. Add diced onions, carrots, and celery. Stir occasionally and cook until onions become translucent.
  • Pour chicken stock into the pot. Increase the heat and bring it to a boil.
  • Once boiling, add the shredded chicken, egg noodles, salt, and pepper. Stir well.
  • For the dumplings, in a mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, and milk. Mix until a thick dough forms.
  • Using a spoon, drop dollops of dumpling dough into the boiling soup. Continue cooking for another 15 minutes.
  • Reduce the heat to low, and let the chicken noodle and dumpling soup simmer for another 15 minutes, allowing all flavors to meld beautifully.
  • Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Once satisfied, turn off the heat.
