In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion, carrot, and celery. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.
Add the minced garlic and continue cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Place the chicken thighs into the pot and pour in the chicken broth. Add the fresh thyme, salt, and black pepper.
Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover and let it cook for 25-30 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked.
While the soup is cooking, make the dumplings. In a bowl, mix together almond flour, xanthan gum, olive oil, and one beaten egg to form a dough.
Roll the dough into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter, to create the dumplings.
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the soup and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the pot.
Gently place the dumplings into the soup. Cover and cook for an additional 10 minutes on low heat, so the dumplings can cook through.
Stir in the chopped parsley right before serving.
Ladle the soup and dumplings into bowls and serve warm.
