Add the onion to the pot and cook for 2 minutes.
Add the carrots, celery, bay leaf, thyme, turmeric, salt, and pepper and cook for 1 minute more.
Return the chicken to the pot, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the first five dumpling ingredients.
Add the cream and mix until just combined.
Drop about 12 heaping tablespoons of the dumpling mixture into the pot. Cover and simmer for 12 minutes more.
To serve, scoop the dumplings and chicken into bowls, then cover with broth.
Garnish with the parsley.
For quicker dumplings, mix 1 egg with 1/2 cup milk, then add the mixture to 1 1/2 cups Bisquick and stir to combine.
