Ingredients

Scale

Protein and Vegetables

  • 1 pound of chicken breast, diced
  • 1 cup of frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn)
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced

Carbohydrates

  • 1 pack of potato gnocchi (about 16 ounces)

Liquids and Fats

  • 4 cups of chicken broth
  • 1 cup of heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil

Seasonings

  • 1 teaspoon of dried thyme
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Cook Chicken: Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the diced chicken breast, season with salt and pepper, and sauté until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Sauté Aromatics: Add chopped onions and minced garlic to the pot with the chicken. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the onions are softened and fragrant.
  3. Add Broth: Pour in the chicken broth, stir to combine, and bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
  4. Add Gnocchi and Vegetables: Add the potato gnocchi and frozen mixed vegetables to the pot. Stir well, reduce the heat to low, and let it simmer for about 5 minutes until the gnocchi is tender.
  5. Add Cream and Seasonings: Pour in the heavy cream, add the dried thyme, and stir to combine all ingredients. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes until the cream has thickened slightly and flavors meld. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
  6. Serve: Spoon the creamy chicken and gnocchi mixture into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve hot for a comforting meal.

Notes

  • For a lighter dish, substitute heavy cream with half-and-half or a dairy-free alternative.
  • Use fresh mixed vegetables if preferred; adjust cooking time accordingly.
  • To make it gluten-free, use gluten-free gnocchi.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated gently on the stove or microwave.
  • Feel free to add extra herbs like rosemary or sage for additional flavor.
