For a richer flavor, consider using homemade chicken broth.
Feel free to add other vegetables, such as peas or corn, to the soup.
For a fluffier dumpling, avoid overmixing the dough.
If you don't have baking mix, you can make your own by combining flour, baking powder, salt, and shortening.
Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave.
