Before we dive in, ensure everything is within arm's reach. Get your chicken stock, veggies, and spices lined up. It makes a world of difference when you can grab what you need without rummaging around.

In a large pot over medium heat, combine the gluten-free chicken stock and 2 cups of frozen mixed veggies. Bring this to a gentle simmer. This is where the magic starts; let those flavors mingle! Stir occasionally and keep an eye on it, just to ensure nothing sticks to the bottom.

Once the veggies are tender, stir in your cooked diced chicken breasts. They should be ready to soak up all that savory goodness.

Now, sprinkle in the dried herbs: sage, thyme, and garlic powder. Add your sea salt and nutritional yeast here, too. This is where we build that flavor base. Let it simmer for about 10-15 minutes.

This part is key if you want a hearty broth. In a small bowl, whisk together the gluten-free cornstarch and 1 cup of plant-based milk until there are no lumps. Pour this mixture into your pot while stirring. It should start thickening nicely. If it’s too thin, you can add more cornstarch.

While your broth thickens, it’s dumpling time! In a separate bowl, melt your butter. Mix in the Bisquick Gluten-Free mix, the remaining plant-based milk, and the whisked eggs until just combined. Be careful not to overmix—it should be lumpy.

Using a spoon, drop spoonfuls of the dumpling batter directly on top of the simmering broth. You want them to float on top and expand as they cook. Don’t worry about making them perfect; rustic is the name of the game!

Cover your pot and let the dumplings steam for about 15-20 minutes. The key here is not to lift the lid while they cook; that steam is essential for fluffy dumplings. You’ll know they’re ready when they’ve doubled in size and are no longer gooey in the center.

Ladle out servings of the chicken and dumplings into bowls, making sure to get some of that rich broth. You can garnish with chopped parsley for a pop of color if you wish. Dive right in and let the warmth envelop you!
