For a richer flavor, use homemade chicken broth instead of store-bought.
Feel free to add vegetables like carrots, celery, or peas to the soup for added nutrition and flavor.
If you don't have poultry seasoning, you can use a combination of thyme, sage, and rosemary.
Be careful not to overmix the dumpling batter, as this can result in tough dumplings.
Ensure the dumplings are cooked through by testing them with a toothpick before serving.

    I didn't have any chicken broth, so I used water and it still turned out great!

  • Bettye Haley

    I added some carrots and celery to the soup and it was delicious! Will definitely make this again.

  • Izabella Mueller

    The dumplings were a little doughy, so I simmered them for a few extra minutes. Next time, I'll make sure to use a toothpick to check for doneness.
