Gluten Free Chicken & Dumpling Soup

Heat a large soup pot over medium heat and add 1 tbsp of olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add 1 chicken breast cut in half longways (so it’s thinner) and season it with salt and pepper. Sear for 3-4 minutes each side. Add in 1 chopped shallot and sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant. Then add 2 chopped celery stalks, 3 chopped carrots and 1 tbsp fresh thyme. Sauté for another 5 minutes and season with 1 tsp salt and pepper. Add in 4 cups chicken broth and bring to a boil. Turn the heat to low then cover and let it simmer until the chicken is cooked through (10ish minutes) then remove and shred the chicken. While that cooks, make your dumplings! Combine 1/2 cup gluten free all purpose flour, 1 tsp baking powder and 1 tbsp chopped sage. Once that is combined add 1/2 cup Greek yogurt and 1 tbsp chicken broth. Combine until a dough is formed. Bring soup to a boil over medium high heat and add about 1 tbsp of rolled dough to the soup (these will expand as they cook so make them smaller than you think). Return heat to medium, cover and let cook for 8-10 minutes. Serve with fresh thyme and freshly cracked black pepper.
