Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until tender.
  2. Whisk together yogurt and warm water until smooth. Pour into the pot with sautéed vegetables. Add chicken, chicken broth, bay leaves, and thyme. Bring to a low boil and simmer for about 5 minutes.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs. Gradually mix in gluten-free flour and chicken broth. Add baking powder, salt, pepper, and chives. Mix until sticky but well combined.
  4. Once the soup is at a gentle boil, drop spoonfuls of dumpling mixture into the broth. Space them out for even cooking.
  5. Simmer uncovered for 10-12 minutes. Cover and cook for an additional 5 minutes until dumplings are cooked through and fluffy.
  6. Remove bay leaves and ladle soup into bowls. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Enjoy!
