Chicken dumpling soup is the ultimate comfort food, with classic flavors and delicious veggies in a creamy, herby broth. This easy recipe comes together in about 40 minutes, thanks to rotisserie chicken and refrigerated biscuit dough.

Ingredients

For the Soup:

  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 1 small yellow onion, diced
  • 1 cup sliced carrots
  • 1 cup sliced celery
  • 6 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 2 teaspoons dried sage leaves
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, optional
  • 3 tablespoons flour + more for tossing the biscuits
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 16.3 oz. refrigerated biscuit dough
  • Kosher salt
  • fresh cracked pepper
  • fresh chopped parsley

Instructions

  1. Melt butter in a large pot over medium-high heat.

    2. Add onion, celery, carrot, and a couple large pinches of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently for about 8 minutes.

  2. Cut each biscuit into 6 pieces and toss them in a thin layer of flour.

    3. Reduce heat to medium. Then add garlic, Italian seasoning, dried sage, fresh thyme, and a couple large pinches of salt and pepper.

  3. Add flour and stir until well combined. Cook for 1 minute, stirring frequently.

    4. Pour in enough broth to deglaze the pan until you can scrape all the yummy bits off the bottom. Then stir in the remaining broth.

  4. Add chicken breast, heavy cream, frozen peas, and bay leaves to the pot. Gently stir to combine all ingredients.

    5. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat.

  5. Add floured biscuit dough quarters to the pot, floating them on top of the soup, not submerging them.

    6. Cover and reduce heat to low. Gently simmer for about 15 minutes or until the biscuit dough is cooked through.

  6. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Garnish and enjoy!

Notes

  • Use a sharp, clean kitchen shears to cut each biscuit into 6 pieces.
  • Don’t skip the step of flouring the biscuits!
  • Don’t peek when you’re cooking the dumplings!
  • Don’t be stingy with the salt!
