Instructions
- Prepare the veggies by dicing the onion, peeling the carrots, slicing the carrots and celery into small pieces, and chopping the parsley. This allows you to quickly add them to the pot when needed.
- Next, add the butter to a large soup pot and melt on medium heat.
- Once the butter is melted, add the onion, celery, and carrots to the pot and cook until the onions are translucent (around 10 minutes), stirring frequently.
- After the onion, carrots, and celery are cooked, add the garlic and cook for around 30 seconds, or until the garlic is fragrant.
- Once the garlic is cooked, add the chicken broth to the pot along with the paprika, thyme, and bay leaves. Increase the heat to high and bring the soup to a boil.
- Once the soup is boiling, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes.
- While the soup is simmering, mix the dumpling ingredients into a medium sized bowl with a fork until the dumplings have a doughy consistency.
- After the soup has simmered for 20 minutes, add the chicken and the parsley and mix in. You can also remove bay leaves from the soup at this time.
- Next, add the dumpling dough to the soup in 1/2 teaspoon increments. Once all the dough has been added, cook the dumplings in the soup for five minutes (or until fully cooked).
- Serve and enjoy! Salt and pepper to taste.
