Instructions
Open the canned biscuits, pull apart the dough, and shape them into 1-2 inch dumpling balls by quickly rolling the dough in your hands. (The dumplings will increase in size as they cook.) Set the dumplings aside.
In a large saucepan over medium-high heat, add vegetable oil and sauté the carrots, onion, and celery for 2-3 minutes until the onion and celery soften.
Add the garlic, chicken bouillon, thyme, salt, and pepper, and cook for an additional minute.
Stir in the broth and the cooked chicken, then reduce the temperature to let the soup simmer on medium-low heat.
Gently add the set aside dumplings into the simmering soup and stir.
Cover the saucepan and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the dumplings are no longer doughy in the center.
Finally, remove the lid from the pot and stir in the heavy whipping cream. Then, serve and enjoy!
