Ingredients

• 1 pound Chicken thighs, boneless and skinless
• 2 tablespoons Coconut aminos
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon Ginger, grated
• 3 cups Chicken bone broth
• 2 tablespoons Gelatin powder
• 1 cup Coconut flour
• 1 cup Arrowroot powder
• 2 large Eggs
• 2 tablespoons Coconut oil, melted
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2 stalks Green onions, finely sliced

Directions

Step 1

Begin by making the gelatin-rich chicken broth. In a small pot, combine the chicken bone broth with gelatin powder and heat gently until the gelatin dissolves. Pour this into a shallow dish and refrigerate until set, about 1 hour.

Step 2

While the broth sets, cut the chicken thighs into small pieces and place in a food processor. Add coconut aminos, garlic, and ginger. Pulse until the mixture is finely minced and combined.

Step 3

In a bowl, combine coconut flour, arrowroot powder, eggs, melted coconut oil, and salt. Mix until it forms a dough. Adjust with more arrowroot powder if the dough is too sticky.

Step 4

Roll out the dough on a lightly arrowroot-floured surface to about 1/8 inch thick. Cut into 3-inch circles using a cookie cutter or the rim of a glass.

Step 5

Once the gelatin-broth mixture is set, cut it into small cubes.

Step 6

Place a spoonful of the chicken mixture and a piece of set broth onto each dough circle. Carefully fold the edges up and pleat to seal the dumpling.

Step 7

Bring a pot of water to boil in a steamer. Line the steamer basket with parchment paper and place the dumplings inside, ensuring they don't touch each other.

Step 8

Steam the dumplings for about 15 minutes, until the chicken filling is cooked and the dough is set.

Step 9

Garnish the dumplings with green onions before serving. Serve hot, enjoying the rich, gelatinous broth inside the dumplings.
