Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound potato gnocchi (store-bought or homemade)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, diced
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 carrots, peeled and diced
  • 2 celery stalks, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 4 cups chicken broth (low sodium)
  • 2 cups half-and-half
  • 2 cups fresh spinach, roughly chopped
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add diced chicken and cook until no longer pink, about 5–7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove chicken and set aside.
  2. In the same pot, add onion, carrots, and celery. Cook for 5 minutes until softened. Add garlic, thyme, and rosemary; cook for 1 more minute.
  3. Sprinkle flour over vegetables, stir constantly for 2 minutes.
  4. Gradually pour in chicken broth, stirring constantly to prevent lumps. Simmer for 5 minutes to thicken slightly.
  5. Reduce heat to low and stir in half-and-half. Do not boil.
  6. Return chicken to pot and add gnocchi. Cook 2–3 minutes or until gnocchi floats.
  7. Stir in chopped spinach until wilted. Adjust salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley. Optional: Top with grated parmesan.

Notes

For a dairy-free version, use coconut cream. Leftovers thicken in the fridge – reheat gently with a splash of broth.
