Hey there! To thicken up your chicken and dumplings, try mixing a bit of cornstarch with water and slowly stirring it into your pot. Another option is to make a roux by cooking equal parts butter and flour, then adding it to your dish. Both methods work like a charm!

If you’ve got some, try using a roux made of butter and flour. Cook equal parts until golden, then stir into your soup. It makes a rich, thick base.

Both roux and cornstarch are great for thickening chicken and dumplings. Roux adds rich flavor, while cornstarch is gluten-free and gives a smooth texture. Happy cooking!
