Ingredients:

For the Chicken Stew:

  • 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts
  • 4 cups chicken broth (preferably low-sodium)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 celery stalks, chopped
  • 2 carrots, peeled and sliced
  • 2 teaspoons dried thyme
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

For the Keto Dumplings:

  • 1 1/2 cups almond flour
  • 1/2 cup coconut flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum (optional, but it helps with texture)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk

Instructions:

  1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt the 1/2 cup of butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, garlic, celery, and carrots. Sauté the vegetables until they are softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Add the chicken to the pot and pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream. Season with thyme, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover and let it simmer for about 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
  3. While the chicken is cooking, prepare the keto dumplings. In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, xanthan gum (if using), and salt. Mix well.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, melted butter, and almond milk together.
  5. Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until a dough forms. If the dough is too dry, you can add a little more almond milk.
  6. Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the pot and shred it into bite-sized pieces using two forks.
  7. Return the shredded chicken to the pot and stir it into the creamy broth.
  8. Drop spoonfuls of the keto dumpling dough onto the surface of the simmering stew. Cover the pot and cook for another 15-20 minutes until the dumplings are cooked through and have expanded.
  9. Garnish with fresh parsley, and then serve your keto-friendly Cracker Barrel-inspired chicken and dumplings hot.
