Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large, diced onion
- 3 medium, sliced carrots
- 2 sliced celery stalks
- 4 cloves, minced garlic
- 6 cups chicken broth
- 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
- 1 cup almond flour
- 2 tablespoons tapioca starch
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion, sliced carrots, and sliced celery. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables start to soften.
Add minced garlic to the pot and sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Pour the chicken broth into the pot and bring to a gentle boil. Lower the heat and let it simmer for about 10 minutes.
Add the shredded chicken into the pot, season with salt and pepper, and continue to simmer.
In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, tapioca starch, egg, and a pinch of salt. Mix until a sticky dough forms.
Using a spoon, drop small portions of the dough into the simmering soup to form the dumplings.
Cover the pot and let the dumplings cook for about 10-12 minutes until they are firm and cooked through.
Stir in coconut milk and let the soup heat through, about 2-3 minutes.
Serve hot, garnished with fresh chopped parsley.
