Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 large eggs
• 1/3 cup milk
• 2 tablespoons butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 6 cups chicken broth
• 1 cup diced carrots
• 1 cup diced celery
• 1 cup diced onions
• 1 cup diced potatoes
• 1 cup cooked chicken, shredded
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
• Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, eggs, milk, melted butter, salt, and pepper. Mix well until a smooth dough forms.
2. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Drop the dough by teaspoonfuls into the boiling water. Cook until the dumplings float to the surface, about 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
3. In a separate soup pot, heat some oil over medium heat. Add diced carrots, celery, onions, and potatoes. Sauté until the vegetables are tender, about 5-7 minutes.
4. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
5. Add the cooked chicken and parsley to the pot. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for another 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
6. Gently add the cooked dumplings to the soup. Stir gently to combine without breaking the dumplings.
7. Serve the Knoepfla Soup hot, garnished with additional parsley if desired. Enjoy!
