Ingredients

Chicken Soup

  • 3 cups shredded chicken
  • 2 tbsp Butter
  • 1/2 Onion chopped
  • 1/2 cup Celery chopped
  • 2 cups Chicken Broth

Keto Dumplings

  • 1 1/2 cups Mozzarella Cheese shredded
  • 2 ounces Cream Cheese softened
  • 1 cup Almond Flour
  • 1 large Egg
  • 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1/4 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1/4 tsp Xanthan Gum

Instructions

  1. Combine the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese in a microwave safe bowl. Heat for 30 seconds at a time until completely melted into a dough.

  2. Add the cheese mixture to a bowl with the remaining dumpling ingredients, and knead to combine well.

  3. Place the dough into a bowl, and chill in the freezer while you prepare the rest of the dish.

  4. Melt the butter in a pot over medium heat.

  5. Stir in the onions and celery, and heat until the vegetables have softened.

  6. Pour the chicken broth into the pot, and season with salt and pepper to taste.

  7. Remove the dough from the freezer, and roll out to about ⅛ of an inch thick between two pieces of parchment paper. Use a pizza cutter to cut the dough into rectangular dumpling shapes.

  8. When ready to serve, drop the dumplings quickly into the heated broth.

  9. Immediately stir in the chicken very carefully, and serve right away.

  10. The dumplings will break down quickly in the liquid, so it is important to not add them to the broth until you are ready to eat the dish.
