Same method can be use for cooked rotisserie chicken Serves 2-3 https://www.howsweeteats.com/2021/01/chickpeas-and-dumplings/

Ingredients

  • 2 Whole Carrot , peeled and diced
  • 2 slice Garlic , minced
  • 3 tablespoon All Purpose Flour , or GF
  • 3 cup Chicken Broth
  • 1 can Unknown , 15 oz
  • ¼ cup Whole Milk , or canned coconut milk
  • 1 cup All Purpose Flour , or GF
  • 2 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1 Whole Eggs , lightly beaten
  • ½ cup Whole Milk , or coconut milk with splash of lemon

Instructions

  • Melt the butter in a pot over medium-low heat. Once melted, stir in the  carrots and garlic with a big pinch of salt and pepper. Stir in the rosemary and thyme. Cook until the vegetables soften, about 5 minutes.
  • While the veggies soften, make the dumplings. Whisk together the 1 cup of flour, baking powder, salt and poultry seasoning in a large bowl. Combine the milk and the eggs, then stir into the flour until just mixed. Set aside for a few minutes
  • Stir the 3 tablespoons of flour into the pan, coating the vegetables to create a roux. Cook, stirring often, for 5 minutes, making sure it doesn’t burn. Slowly stream in 3 cups of the stock, stirring while doing so. Cook for another 5 minutes, letting the mixture come to a low boil - it should thicken a bit.
    • Stir in the chickpeas. Stir in the cream. You want the mixture to be lightly bubbling over medium heat. Taste and season with more salt and pepper if needed.
      • Take the dumpling batter and drop spoonfuls of it into the soup. Cook for 7 minutes, then flip the dumplings and cook them for 7 minutes more. If the mixture comes to a full boil, decrease the heat while simmering the dumplings.
        • Sprinkle with parsley and serve!
