Chicken and dumpling soup is a lighter version of classic chicken and dumplings that's still creamy, hearty, and satisfying. The homemade dumplings are a breeze to make and are the perfect pillowy texture in this soup. We cooked the chicken in the soup, but if you have leftover rotisserie chicken or cooked chicken on hand, you can always use that instead. Add in other vegetables like celery or mushrooms if you like. You can even leave out the chicken, swap it for veggies, and use vegetable broth for a vegetarian soup. Serve with a green salad and crusty bread for an easy, warming feast.
