How to make chicken dumpling soup
- To prepare the soup, we take any part of the chicken (soup set, drumsticks or breast on the bone), the main thing is to get a rich and aromatic broth. Fill the meat with cold water, bring to a boil and drain the first broth - due to this, the soup will turn out to be transparent and less fatty. Re-fill the chicken with clean cold water, add salt and put it back on the stove. Cook the meat over low heat for about 30-40 minutes from the moment of boiling, not forgetting to remove the foam formed on the surface from time to time.
Using a fork or slotted spoon, remove the boiled chicken from the broth (it is advisable to strain it). Let it cool slightly so as not to burn your hands, after which we separate the meat from the bone and cut it into small pieces, the skin can be removed or left at your discretion. We return the chicken meat back to the broth.
We peel two or three medium-sized potato tubers and cut into small pieces, send it to the pot with chicken. Cook for another 10 minutes, until half cooked. Do not put too many potatoes, otherwise the soup will turn out thick.
We prepare separately fragrant dressing from onions and carrots. To do this, first sauté the diced onion in vegetable oil, and then fry the finely grated carrots with it. Vegetables should be well browned during the frying process in order to give all their aroma and flavor to the broth.
Cooking dumpling dough - it is advisable to knead it in advance so that it stands a little when room temperature... To do this, drive 2 eggs into a small bowl, add 1 generous pinch of salt, flour and milk, mix everything thoroughly. Depending on the size of the eggs, it can take 6-8 tbsp. l. flour until the dough becomes sour cream-like in consistency (if the dough is too thick, it can be diluted with a little vegetable oil).
Add the dressing to the soup, adjust the amount of salt to your liking, add the bay leaf, a mixture of ground peppers and finely chopped parsley (fresh or dried).
Put the dough into the boiling soup, scooping it up with a teaspoon - than less dough on a spoon, the prettier the dumplings will be. It is most convenient to put them in soup, helping yourself with a second spoon dipped in water. Stir with light circular motions, as a result of which the dumplings will easily "lag behind" the spoon and dip into the soup.
We repeat the procedure until all the dough is used up. Work should be done quickly so that the dumplings are simultaneously cooked. Once all the pieces of dough have floated to the surface, you can remove the pan from the heat.
Chicken soup serve hot with dumplings. If you wish, you can sprinkle the dish with finely chopped herbs and season with a spoonful of sour cream.

Everyone in my family loves chicken broth soups. I cook broth on chicken often and try to diversify the ingredients for soups on such a light and delicious broth... Today I will offer you a variant of a very light chicken broth soup with dumplings. Soup is prepared in a matter of minutes: if you already have chicken broth, then it will take you 15 minutes to cook the soup - this is exactly how much it will take to boil the potatoes.
Dumplings are small pieces of dough that are cooked in broth, water, or milk. The main ingredients for dumplings are egg, flour, water. In many European countries, soups with dumplings are prepared, only they have different names: in Germany and Austria - "knödli", in Ukraine - "dumplings", in the Baltic states - "kama".
I cook dumplings a little in my own way, I ate such dumplings from a neighbor with Russian roots, it is from her that I have the recipe. So, she added herbs, a little vegetable oil and chicken broth instead of water to the dumpling dough. You can add garlic, but I don't really like it with garlic, chicken broth is very aromatic and rich in itself and does not need an additional flavor enhancer, such as garlic.
To prepare chicken soup with dumplings, we will prepare the products according to the list.
Let's prepare chicken broth. For this chicken leg put in a saucepan with water, put on fire and let the water boil. As soon as foam begins to appear, reduce the heat to medium, very carefully select all the foam from the surface of the broth with a slotted spoon. After that, add bay leaf, a couple of allspice peas, half a carrot, cut into circles, and half an onion to the pan. Salt the broth to taste and cook it until the chicken leg is fully cooked.
Cut the potatoes into medium cubes, onions and bell pepper cut into small cubes, and grate the carrots on a medium grater.
Add potatoes to the finished broth and continue to cook the soup. The meat can be removed from the pot and used for another dish or for serving dumpling soup.
While the potatoes are cooking, let's fry the soup. To do this, fry the onions, carrots and bell peppers in vegetable oil, leaving a couple of drops of butter for the dumplings. Fry vegetables for about 7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Now let's prepare the dumplings. To do this, drive an egg into a bowl, add parsley and dill, a couple of drops of vegetable oil, salt, pepper, a little flour. Stir everything well and add 2-3 tablespoons of boiling broth, mix the dough very well, as if brewing it.
Gradually add the remaining flour until you get the dough, like on thick pancakes.
Put the dumplings in the boiling broth with two teaspoons. We collect the dough in one spoon, and with the other spoon we clean the dough from the spoon so that it falls into the broth. The dumplings will immediately sink to the bottom, but float to the surface as they cook.
Add the previously cooked frying to the soup.
Sprinkle the soup with dill and parsley. Let the soup boil again and remove from heat.
Pour ready-made chicken soup with dumplings into portioned plates and serve. For this soup, you do not need to serve bread, it will be replaced by dumplings. Dumplings in consistency are not dense and not soft, keep their shape well. If you are serving soup with the chicken that was used to make the broth, then it's time to distribute the meat on the plates.
Bon Appetit!
In my family, soups are not very fond of, but still you need to eat them. Husband refuses lungs vegetable soups flat, so I have to trick a little. I make a dumpling soup, which is cooked, although almost without vegetables, but still turns out to be healthy.
