Notes

Recipe tips

Don't over mix dumplings - When making the dumplings, it's important to mix the ingredients until just combined. If you overwork the dumpling dough, your dumplings will fall apart and disintegrate when cooking
Use leftover chicken - If you have leftover chicken, you can use it in this soup. I love making Mississippi chicken in the instant pot then using the leftovers in this recipe.

What can I add to my chicken and dumplings to make it thicker?

For a thicker texture, you can add 1 tablespoon of flour, teaspoon of xanthan gum, or another thickening agent to the soup mixture when cooking. In addition, you can cook the gluten-free dumplings for an extra minute or two for a thicker texture. But be careful not to cook for too long.
