Sprinkle the strips with a bit of coconut flour so they don’t stick to one another. Using a pizza cutter or a sharp knife, gently cut strips of dough about 1 inch wide. Using a rolling pin, roll out the dough to the edges of the mat, or until it’s ½-inch thick. Transfer the dough to the silicone mat and knead until smooth. Add the coconut flour, baking powder, xanthan gum and egg yolks and mix together. Place the mozzarella in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in the micro wave oven until fully melted, about 1½ minutes. To make the dumplings: Have a silicone mat ready. Add the shredded chicken back to the Dutch oven and cook for another 10 minutes, until heated through. Discard the bones (or save to make the stovetop chicken stock below). Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and shred the meat from the bones with a fork. Add the chicken back, bring the mixture to a boil, lower the heat to medium-low, and simmer for 20 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through. Add 4 cups water, the stock, melted butter, and bay leaves and stir to combine. Transfer the chicken to a plate and set aside.Īdd the celery, onion, garlic and thyme to the pot and cook, stirring, until soft, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the chicken to the pot and brown for 4 to 6 minutes per side.
Season the chicken all over with salt and pepper. To make the soup: In a large Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. You’ll also need a silicone mat and a rolling pin to make them, but this technique will come in handy this winter when you want to make any kind of dumpling soup.Ģ tablespoons fresh thyme (or 2 teaspoons dried thyme)Ģ cups homemade or store-bought chicken broth Garza, who gained an internet following through her popular Facebook group, “Keto Friendly Recipes,” says that even her non-keto friends love this recipe, and she points out that the dumplings don’t need to cook for very long. The key to the dumpling’s consistency is the mozzarella, egg yolks and xanthan gum, which combine to make just the right texture and taste to go along with the homemade chicken soup. (OK, her recipe calls for coconut flour, but it’s grain-free.) Austin blogger Jennifer Marie Garza offers a solution in her new book, “Keto Friendly Recipes: Easy Keto for Busy People” (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, $22.99): chicken and with flour-free dumplings. If you’re on a ketogenic (or other low-carb) diet, it can be hard to find low-carb, high-protein meals that are worth getting nostalgic about. With colder temperatures come a desire to cozy up and make something warm, usually a soup or a stew, but sometimes a butter-covered carbohydrate, too.
