Ingredients

  • 500 g Chicken breasts
  • 120 g Almond flour
  • 30 g Coconut flour
  • 1 tsp Xanthan gum
  • 1 tsp Baking powder
  • 2 large Egg
  • 60 ml Heavy cream
  • 30 g Butter
  • 1 tsp Garlic powder
  • 1 tsp Onion powder
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 0.5 tsp Black pepper
  • 500 ml Chicken broth
  • 1 tbsp Olive oil
  • 2 tbsp Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing the chicken: cut the chicken breasts into small, bite-sized cubes.

Step 2

Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until they are golden brown and cooked through, approximately 8 minutes. Set aside.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, and baking powder.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until well combined.

Step 5

Pour the egg mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a bit more almond flour. Let it sit for 5 minutes to firm up slightly.

Step 6

Roll the dough into small balls, about the size of a tablespoon. Flatten each ball slightly to form dumplings.

Step 7

Melt the butter in the same pan where the chicken was cooked, over medium heat. Add the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.

Step 8

Once aromatic, pour the chicken broth into the pan and bring it to a gentle simmer.

Step 9

Carefully add the dumplings to the simmering broth. Cover the pan and let them cook for about 15 minutes, or until the dumplings are cooked through.

Step 10

Return the cooked chicken pieces to the pan with the dumplings. Stir gently to coat the chicken with the broth and dumplings.

Step 11

Sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving for a pop of color and freshness.

Step 12

Serve hot and enjoy your keto-friendly chicken dumplings!
