- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 onion (chopped)
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1 carrot (sliced)
- 1 rib celery (sliced)
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 bay leaf
- 8 ounces gnocchi (uncooked)
- 2 cups half and half (or light cream)
- 2 cups fresh spinach (packed)
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch
Steps
In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and cook until softened.
Add broth, chicken breasts, carrots, celery, Italian seasoning, & bay leaf. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer, and cook 20 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
Remove chicken and shred (or chop). Set aside.
Meanwhile, bring the broth back to a simmer and add gnocchi. Simmer 10 minutes.
Stir in cream, shredded chicken, and spinach. Simmer 3-4 minutes or until spinach is wilted.
Combine cornstarch with 3 tablespoons water. Stir into the simmering broth a little at a time to reach desired consistency. You may not use all of the cornstarch.
Discard bay leaf. Taste, season with salt and pepper, and serve immediately.
