Recipe Tips

  • For best results, use a high-quality chicken broth. If you don’t have one on hand, you can use the broth from a can of chicken.
  • If you’d like to add more flavor to the dish, you can add a tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce to the broth before cooking.
  • If you don’t have any fresh herbs, you can use dried herbs. Just reduce the amount to 1/2 teaspoon each of thyme, oregano, and basil.
  • To make the dumplings lighter and fluffier, add an extra tablespoon of butter to the flour mixture.
  • For a thicker sauce, you can stir in a tablespoon of cornstarch at the end of cooking.
